Familiarity with the skeletal system of the human body

  

More than 200 bones and ossicles are involved in the formation of the human skeletal system

🍁 The bones that play a role in the formation of the spine and pelvis make up the core part of the body

🍁 Long bones connected to the axial system make the organ part of the body

🍁 The place where individual bones connect to each other is called a joint, of course, not all joints necessarily have movement, for example, the joint between the bones of the head does not have movement, and on the contrary, there are joints that have a wide range of movement, such as the shoulder joint.

In terms of structural design, there are two types of bones in the body

The first type: It includes long bones and the femur is an example

The second type: broad, short bones, small bones, such as the kneecap

Bones are divided into two groups in terms of structural type

The first type: spongy bones like vertebrae, which are porous like a sponge

The second type: hard bones, such as the tibia, which are made of a dense layer

🍁 Materials that make up bones: It consists of two parts, the superior part which contains fibers called collagen and has the role of a scaffold, and the mineral part including calcium and phosphate is on it.

Like reinforced concrete rebars, collagen fibers act as scaffolding and calcium acts as concrete
