Skeletal System

Infact, for size all bones are much stronger thatn concrete. About 8 times. They're flexible, lightweight and super hard. Yet will break if alot of force is given. A thigh bone can withstand about a tonne of stress before snapping. This depening on a person's health. The lower joint of a femur, pretty much impossible to break with a hammer, yet hollow bones will break with a brick, slab of concrete or a hammer. Imagine a bit of concrete the size of a bone, it would break easily... Wouldn't it?

This will depend upon what caused the inflammation in the first place and what tissue in the ribs needs to heal. If it was a point of inflammation on the pleura, it should heal up in a few days to a week. If there is ongoing insult to the tissues, or the inflammation is in the bone, it may take several months or longer before the inflammation resolves.

Its on the left hand side it feels hard on the lower part of thr rib and is a bit sore its hard and has been there for a while now. i know its there all the time

It depends on where exactly, what is the size, what is the consistency and how long it has been there. Is it movable? Is it connected to the bony are of the rib? Is it an all soft tissue?

Calcium is important for every part of the body. Without calcium nothing would work!

Nerves need calcium to release neurotransmitters and thereby transmit nerve impulses, muscles need calcium to contract (including the heart), bones need calcium to remodel bones, etc.

If the patella is everted, it means that it is turned outward away from the center line of the body. This deviation from its normal position can sometimes occur due to injury or improper alignment of the knee joint. Treatment may involve physical therapy, bracing, or in severe cases, surgery to realign the patella.

The ulna is sometimes referred to as the "shameless bone" because it is the bone that protrudes when someone holds their hand up with their palm facing down, as if asking for something. This gesture is sometimes associated with begging or asking for help, hence the term "shameless."

The brain, spinal cord, and organs within the thoracic cavity, such as the heart and lungs, are protected by bones in the axial skeleton.

The ends of some bones are smooth because they form joints. These are referred to as freely moving joints and they are the most common ones in your body. The ends of the bones are smooth because they are covered in hyaline cartilage, which is like soft marble. Inside the joint capsule that contains the ends of the bones with the hyaline cartilage there is a lubricant called synovial fluid that helps the joint move with minimal amount of friction.

"Pupic" appears to be a misspelling of the word "pubic," which refers to the hair in the genital area. It is a natural part of one's body and serves various purposes, such as providing protection and reducing friction.

Bones and cartilage are specialized tissues because they provide structural support and protection to the body. Bones are rigid and provide a framework for the body, while cartilage is flexible and acts as a cushion between bones to reduce friction and absorb shock. Both tissues have unique properties that make them well-suited for their specific roles in the body.

The bone marrow is the spongy/jellylike substance in the middle of bones.

It is important for the production of blood cells including red blood cells for oxygen transport and white blood cells for disease immunity.

The Achilles tendon is neither bone nor cartilage. It is, unsurprisingly, a tendon.

A hinge is a type of joint the largest one is found in the knee. Another good example is a hinge on your door, which attaches the door to the door frame, but also allows the door to swing open or closed.

Medial Collateral Ligament - Liimits sideways motion

Lateral Collateral Ligament - Also limits sideways motion

Anterior Cruciate Ligament - Limits rotation and forward motion of the tibia.

Posterior Cruciate ligament - limits the backwards motion of the knee.

Patellar Ligament - attaches the kneecap to the tibia

Ligaments, tendons, muscles, fascia, cartilage and skin all play a part in securing bones to bones and muscles to bones. However, most bones are connected to other bones by ligaments, and muscles are connected to bones by tendons.
Ligament attaches bones to bones. Tendon attaches muscle to bones.

The femoral artery runs right along the femur. A fracture in the femur might damage the artery leading to massive internal bleeding, as the femoral artery is one of the largest arteries in your body.

While most tissues have a Endo, Peri, and Epi covering. Bone simply has an endosteum and periosteum. Some older texts will refer to the periosteum as an epiosteum. The periosteum is found enveloping bones with the exception of the articulating joints. The periosteum contains a fibrous outer layer and a cellular inner layer containing progenitor cells.

in adulthood, the red bone marrow is in the shafts of most long bones.

The bone marrow is responsible for the manufacture of red and white blood cells. Red bone marrow is primarily involved in the production of red blood cells, platelets, and some types of white blood cells. White bone marrow plays a role in producing additional white blood cells as needed.

Yes, the human skull is supported by the neck which consists of cervical vertebrae. This structure allows for the mobility and movement of the head.

Ribs are called 'flat bones'. As opposed to long, short, and irregular bones, the function of flat bones is to have broad surfaces for protection of organs and attachment of muscles.

Ribs themselves are divided into three categories:

True ribs are the first 7 pairs, connected to the spine. In the front, true ribs connect to the breastbone or sternum by means of coastal cartilage.

The next 3 pairs are false ribs. They are shorter than true ribs and connected to the spine. In the front, false ribs are connected to the lowest true rib.

The last 2 pairs are floating ribs. They are the smallest kind of rib. They are attached to the spine. In the front, floating ribs are not connected to anything.

The skeletal system has many important functions, including: 1. Providing a sturdy attachment site for your muscles, so that your body can move, and so that the body does not exist in a "gelatinous" state. 2. The skeletal system can be divided into two "parts"; the Axial skeleton and the Appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton basicallly consists of the bones of your skull and trunk (spine, ribs,). The appendicular skeleton is made up of the bones of your arms and legs. The axial skeleton gives your body it's posture, so that it doesn't fall over. It also protects vital organs- the ribs enclose/protect the lungs, and the sterum covers/protects the heart. The liver is also partially protected by your ribs. The bones of your skull protect your brain, etc. The bones of the appendicular skeleton (working w/our muscles) allow us to walk, stand, grasp,and move objects. 3. Many bones store important minerals like calcium and phosphorus, etc. 4. Some bones produce and store bone marrow (red and yellow bone marrow). Red bone marrow produces blood cells.
