I can identify the six (6) primary skeletal system functions, and give an example
of a skeletal feature that facilitates each function.
• #1) _____ Which of the following is NOT a
function of the skeletal system?
• Movement
• Production of blood cells
• Regulation of hormones (this is the function of
the endocrine/nervous system)
• Support
I can describe the physiological function of cartilage in the endoskeleton, and I
Can provide examples of where one would find hyaline (articular) cartilage in the
human body.
• #2) What type of cartilage would you
expect to find at the pubic symphysis?
Why?
• Fibrous cartilage; not supposed to ossify.
Meant to stretch but not tear.
I can describe the physiological function of cartilage in the endoskeleton, and provide
examples of where one would find hyaline (articular) cartilage in the human body.
• #3) What type of cartilage would you expect
to find at the epiphyses of long bones? Why?
• HYALINE CARTILAGE; meant to undergo
endochondral ossification to allow for
interstitial growth of bone
I can compare/contrast between cortical and cancellous bone structure and
function, as well as provide examples/locations of each in the endoskeleton.
• #4) Why is cortical bone necessary in the diaphysis of long
bones while cancellous bone is utilized in the epiphysis of
long bones and in short (or sesamoid) bones? Describe the
structural difference between each type of bone and relate
this to the function of each type of tissue.
• Cortical bone, being more dense, is used for support in the
diaphysis (center length) of bones while cancellous bone,
being less dense, is used for shock absorption in the
epiphysis/ends of long bones and in sesamoid bones
I can describe the physiological function of red and yellow marrows in the endoskeleton
• #5) Describe the difference in location and function
between red marrow and yellow marrow.
• Red Marrow is the site of hematopoiesis (red blood
corpuscle production) and is found in the cancellous bone
on the epiphysis (ends) of long bones, the sternum and ribs
• Yellow Marrow is the site of leukopoiesis (white blood cell
production) and is found embedded in the cortical bone of
the diaphysis of long bones
I can explain the role of the periosteum in the skeletal system, and can describe
various injuries to this structure such as bone bruises and periostitis (shin splints).
• #6) A student plays a fall sport that involves a lot of running.
Their lower legs start to hurt, so they go see the trainer in the
PERC. The trainer tells them they have “shin splints”.
Describe what the structure this condition affects, what it
does to that structure, and how to prevent/treat the
condition.
• Irritation at points of insertion and origin where tibia anterior
frontalis connects to periosteum of lower leg. Icing, antiinflammatory drugs and arch supports.
I can distinguish between the various bone shapes (long, short, sesamoid, flat, or
irregular) and give examples of each bone shape within the human skeleton.
long
flat
flat
irregular
Short/sesamoid
I can distinguish between the various bone shapes (long, short, sesamoid, flat, or
irregular) and give examples of each bone shape within the human skeleton.
I can describe the following processes that occur in the skeletal system, and the role of
hormones, osteoblasts, and/or osteoclasts in each process.
Bone formation (ossification)
Bone growth, at epiphyseal plates (length) and diaphysis (width)
• #9) Why is it important for young children to wear wrist guards when roller
blading? Explain in terms of epiphyseal plates, endochondral ossification
and interstitial growth.
• Injuring the radio-ulnar joint with the carpal bones can result in permanent
damage to the epiphyseal (growth) plates at the distal end of the long bones
in the lower arm. Without the activity of the chondrocytes in this tissue, the
cartilage in the epiphyseal plates will not undergo endochondral
ossification. This is turn, would severely limit any interstitial growth of the long
bones of the lower arm.
I can describe the following processes that occur in the skeletal system, and the role of hormones, osteoblasts, and/or osteoclasts in each process.
Bone formation (ossification)
Bone growth, at epiphyseal plates (length) and diaphysis (width)
Bone remodeling (in response to seral calcium levels and bone stress/force of gravity)
I can predict the effect of high seral calcium levels or bone stress and the effect of low seral calcium
levels or bone stress, and how this can lead to osteoporosis or
bone wasting (atrophy).
• #10) One of the difficulties in planning for a prolonged space
flight (i.e. a mission to Mars) concerns the preservation of the
astronauts’ muscloskeletal anatomy. Based upon your
knowledge of osteoclasts, osteoblasts and bone remodeling,
explain why extended space flight in zero- or micro-gravity
would be problematic in terms of skeletal integrity.
• Without regular stressing of the appendicular skeleton by skeletal
muscle, osteoclast activity will outweigh osteoblast activity,
effectively causing the bone tissue to waste away as it is
recycled.
I can discern between the types of synovial joints in the appendicular skeleton (fixed, ball & socket, hinge,
pivot, saddle, gliding, condyloid), and can describe the range or type of motion for each type of joint.
I can identify examples of explain the functional difference between bones of the axial skeleton as
compared with those of the appendicular skeleton.
I can discern between the histological and functional differences between the three
types of muscle: visceral, smooth and cardiac
• #13-18) Match the anatomical structure with its correct
histological muscle type

facilitates this function
I can describe the physiological function of red and yellow marrows in the endoskeleton.
I can discern between points of origin and insertion in terms of a skeletal muscle.
• #11-13) How does the anatomy of the circulatory, muscular and skeletal systems
illustrate the concept of the physiological interdependence of systems? In other
words, how do the structures of these three system connect (literally and figuratively)
to the function of the other systems? Give specific examples in your answer based
upon observations made in lab.
• A) Red and yellow marrows in center of cancellous/cortical bone used for
hematopoiesis
• B) Haversian canals innervate osteon, delivering oxygen and food to osteocytes
• C) Muscular contraction relies upon tendons attached to tuberosities on bone
• D) Muscular contraction requires calcium ions that are stored in intercellular matrix
I can explain the functional difference between bones of the axial skeleton as compared with those of the appendicular
skeleton.
I can distinguish between fibrous joints, cartilaginous joints, and synovial joints.
I can discern between the types of synovial joints in the appendicular skeleton (fixed, ball & socket, hinge, pivot, saddle,
gliding, condyloid), and can describe the range or type of motion for each type of joint.
• #19-23) True/False
T = True
If the statement is false, correct it.
F = False
• F
#19) The cranial sutures, pubic symphysis and temporomandibular
joints are all examples of fixed joints
• T
#20) The humeral-scapular joint allows for adduction/abduction while
the humeral-ulnar joint allows for flexion/extension
• T
#21) The sternum, cranium and sacrum are all examples of axial skeletal
structures
• F
#22) Myocardiocytes (i.e. cardiac muscle cells) are intercalated, unlike
visceral and skeletal muscle tissues, as the cells of the heart need to contract
in synchrony with each other.
• F
#23) The sarcoplasmic reticulum is essential to the function of skeletal
myocytes as it releases calcium ions which, in turn, allows for the
myofilaments to slide across each other
I can discern between the anatomical forms of tendons v. ligaments and can
connect each’s form to its specific function in regard to the appendicular skeleton.
• #24) Contrast ligaments & tendons in terms of their
anatomical form & physiological function.
• Ligaments: connect bone to bone, keep joint in alignment,
flexible/elastic
• Tendons: connect muscle to bone at points of origin and
insertion, allow muscle to exert force on bone,
tough/inelastic
I CAN CLASSIFY THE BICEPS & TRICEPS, AND THE RADIALIS & ULNARIS MUSCLES AS
ANTAGONISTIC MUSCLE PAIRS, AND DESCRIBE THEIR MUSCULAR PHYSIOLOGY
• #25) Analogous Structures
• Extensor carpi radialis is to flexor carpi ulnaris as triceps brachii is to biceps
brachii
I can describe the critical role of the motor unit, neuromuscular junction, and
acetylcholine (ACh) in the physiology of muscle contraction.
I can explain the role of calcium and the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the physiology of
muscle contraction, and the role of the parathyroid hormone in providing additional calcium
from the skeletal system.
I can articulate the steps and relative positions of actin and myosin myofilaments in the
sliding filament theory.
• #26) List the “steps” involved in muscle contraction, starting with a motor
neuron and ending with the sliding filament theory (be specific). What are
the key players at each step?
• Motor neuron (efferent neuron) delivers action potential to synapse with
sarcolemma of myocyte (muscle fiber)
• Acetylcholine crosses synapse, triggering release of calcium from
sarcoplasmic reticulum inside of myocyte
• Using ATP and Calcium, the myofilament myosin attaches to the actin
myofilament, driving it forward. This causes the sarcomere to
shorten/contract
• When action potential ends, calcium is reabsorbed by the sarcoplasmic
reticulum and the myofilaments slide back to their original positions
I can discern between the key features of aerobic v. anaerobic respiration in terms of
energy production and muscle fatigue.
I can discern between the features of slow v. fast twitch muscle, citing differences in energy
production that lead to differences in muscle fatigue.
I can distinguish the key features of aerobic, anaerobic and isometric exercise.
• 27) Observe the graph of muscle force v. time. If the force of contraction is
not significantly different between fast and slow twitch muscle fibers, then
why do some athletic events like shot put and sprinting tend to utilize fast
twitch (type 2) muscle fibers while others, such as water polo and ultramarathon require greater utilization of slow twitch (type 1) muscle fibers?
Explain how the nature of these different activities match the physiological
differences between fast and slow twitch skeletal muscle.
• Long endurance activities require slow twitch muscle fibers
as they do not supply as much force as fast twitch
but do not tire as easily. Type 1 muscle fibers are primarily
aerobic, yielding more energy over more time (less power)
while type 2 muscle fibers utilize phosphagen or lactic acid pathways
I can discern between the key features of the three ATP metabolic pathways (phosphagen
system, lactic acid fermentation, and aerobic cellular respiration) in terms of energy
production, muscle fatigue, energy source, and types of exercise that utilize each pathway.
I can discern between the physiological features of slow (type I) v. fast (type II) twitch
muscle fibers, explaining how each’s mode of cellular respiration determines each’s time to
muscle fatigue.
• A student wants to bulk up to make weight for a heavy-weight wrestling
category. What is the best type of exercise (aerobic, anaerobic, isometric)
to accomplish this goal? Explain what this type of exercise does to the
anatomy (and therefore physiology) of the musculature of the individual.
• ISOMETRIC EXERCISE. As muscles are pitted against immovable objects,
maximal force must be exerted. This results in “bulking up” due to an
increase in muscle fiber SIZE (because more contractile fibers are
produced). Also increases the amount of connective tissue that
reinforces the muscle
I can explain the role of calcium and the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the physiology of
muscle contraction.
• #29) Hypocalcemia is a condition noted by low seral calcium levels. The
cause of hypocalcemia can range from insufficient Vitamin D to lack of
exposure to sunlight. Symptoms of hypocalcemia include a higher tendency
to suffer broken bones, uncontrolled muscle cramping and impaired
reasoning abilities. How do these three symptoms illustrate the multifaceted
role of calcium in the physiology of the nervous and musculoskeletal
systems? Be explicit in terms of how calcium is utilized by each system.
• A lack of calcium would affect nervous and musculoskeletal physiology as
neurotransmitters could not be released across the synapse, bones would
lose their density (osteoporosis) and actin/myosin myofilaments would not
be able to slide across each other properly
I CAN APPLY ALL LAB/ACTIVITY CONCEPTS, SKILLS, AND RESULTS FROM THIS UNIT AS SPECIFIC SUPPORT OF THE TARGETS
LISTED BELOW.
I CAN INTEGRATE TWO OR MORE TARGETS TOGETHER INTO ONE COHESIVE IDEA OR EXPLANATION.
• #30) How does the anatomy of the muscular and skeletal systems illustrate
the concept of the physiological interdependence of systems? In other
words, how do the structures of these two systems connect (literally and
figuratively) to the function of the other system? Give specific examples in
your answer based upon observations made in lab.
• Without the attachment points of the skeleton (origin & insertion), muscle
could not provide movement.
• Muscular contraction frequently relies on the actions of the osteoclasts to
provide calcium for muscle contraction when seral calcium levels are low
I can explain the role of the periosteum in the skeletal system, and distinguish between a
bone bruise and periostitis (shin splints).
I can organize gross muscle anatomy from most complex (largest, most inclusive) to simple
(smallest/least inclusive) including muscle body, fascicles, myofibers, myofibrils,
sarcomeres, and myofilaments
• #31-32) The suffix “-itis” means “inflammation”. This suffix may be appended
to any structure that has become swollen or inflamed (i.e. meningitis,
peritonitis, gastroenteritis, etc). What, then, is the physiological difference
between plantar fasciitis and periostitis? Hint: The former afflicts the muscular
system while the latter afflicts the skeletal system.
• Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the fascia covering the flexor digitorum
brevis muscle between the calcaneous (heel) and tarsal bones of the foot.
• Periostitis is inflammation of the periosteum surrounding the tibia bone of the
lower leg.
I can organize gross muscle anatomy from most complex (largest, most inclusive) to simple
(smallest/least inclusive) including muscle body, fascicles, myofibers, myofibrils,
sarcomeres, and myofilaments.
• #33) Place the following muscular structures in order from smallest to largest:
actin, fascicle, myocyte, myofibril, myosin, sarcomere.
• Actin
• Myosin
• Sarcomere
• Myofibril
• Myocyte
• Fascicle
