Locomotion
Movement
Protection
Stature
We are composed of one skeleton that can be divided into two major regions, the axial and appendicular skeleton. Identify the structures that make up the axial skeleton,
talus, calcaneus, navicular, cuboid, and cuneiform
limbs and girdles
skull, vertebrae, ribs and sternum
hands, arms and shoulder girdle
Identify the bones NOT identified as Appendicular bones
26 bones in the vertebral column (24 vertebrae, the sacrum, and the coccyx)
Left and right clavicle (2) and scapula (2).
Arms and forearms (6 bones) - Left and right humerus (2) (arm), ulna (2) and radius (2) (forearm).
Pectoral girdles (4 bones)
Identify a function of the axial skeleton
allows for movement of the wrist and hand
protects nerves and blood vessels at the elbos
supports the trunk of the body
allows for movement of the foot and ankle

Humerus, Radius, Ulna, Carpals, Metacarpals, Phalanges,
cranial, sternum, thorax, ossicles
metacarpals, phalanges, sacrum, coccyx
hyoid, humerus, sacrum, sternum
Identify the function(s) of the axial skeleton
to provide support and protection for the brain, the spinal cord, and the organs in the ventral body cavity
to support core of limbs
to provides a surface for the attachment of muscles that move the head, neck, and trunk
to performs respiratory movements
The appendicular skeleton consists of the limbs and girdles. Identify the girdles that are matched correctly to attached limbs.
pelvic girdle is the attachment point for our thigh bone
pectoral girdle is formed by the clavicle and scapula
pectoral girdle serves as the attachment point for humerus and consists of ilium, icshium, and pubis
pelvic girdle is the attachment point for femur
