Essential Tips for Mastering Bone Anatomy: Avoid Size Misconceptions

Learning about bones is crucial for understanding human anatomy, but don't rely solely on size! A larger bone isn't always what it seems. For effective learning, refer to resources such as the skeletal system chapter on your lecture CD-ROM or visit www.flashcardexchange.com for quizzes. Familiarize yourself with anatomical terminology like superior (above), inferior (below), and others. Pay attention to the relationships between bones as you study, including their articulations and attachment points for ligaments and muscles. Engage with activities to reinforce your knowledge.

  1. Helpful Tips for Learning Bones Do NOT learn bones based on size! EX: Just because a bone is big does not mean it is the femur! For bone quizzes check out lecture CD-ROM (skeletal system chapter) www.flashcardexchange.com

  2. Anatomical Terminology, Pg.4 Superior = above Inferior = below

  3. Anatomical Terminology, Pg.4 Anterior = front Posterior = back

  4. Anatomical Terminology, Pg.4 Medial = toward the Middle Lateral = toward the side

  5. Anatomical Terminology, Pg.4 Proximal = close to the trunk (Proximal ~ Proximity) Distal = Distant from the trunk

  6. Articulating the Skeleton Ligaments connect bones together Tendons join muscles to bone What type of tissue are ligaments & tendons?

  7. Scapula, Pg 147, Posterior View Glenoid Cavity Spine Deltoid muscle attaches to the Spine Humerus articulates at the Glenoid Cavity

  8. Spine Deltoid

  9. Scapula, Pg 147, Anterior View Suprascapular notch allows for nerve passage Suprascapular Notch

  10. Distinguishing Left & Right Bones 1. Look at the bone’s morphology 2. Think of how it articulates with other bones

  11. Humerus, Pg 148, Anterior View Intertubercular Sulcus Bicep tendon passes through the Intertubular Sulcus Deltoid Tuberosity Deltoid muscle attaches to the Deltoid Tuberosity

  12. Deltoid Intertubular Sulcus Deltoid Tuberosity Bicep

  13. Radius, Pg 149, Anterior View Radial Tuberosity Bicep attaches at the Radial Tuberosity Styloid Process Wrist ligaments attach to the Styloid Process

  14. Bicep Radial Tuberosity

  15. Ulna, Pg 149, Lateral View Styloid Process Wrist ligament attachment site

  16. Distinguishingthe Radius & Ulna Radius is on the thumb side of the forearm The radius rotates when you twist your arm Ulna has a wrench-like trochlear notch

  17. Phalanges Metacarpals Carpals

  18. Do Activity 1 and Activity 2 Find the answers to the questions in your handout

  19. Pelvic Girdle, Pg 152, Lateral View Illium Pubis Ischium

  20. Pelvis, Pg. 152, Lateral View G. & L. Sciatic Notches allow for nerve and blood vessel passage Greater Sciatic Notch Lesser Sciatic Notch

  21. Greater Sciatic Nerve

  22. Look at a Pelvis at your Table Do Activity 3 – Pg. 152 Distinguish between male and female pelves

  23. Femur, Pg 154, Posterior View Greater Trochanter Lesser Trochanter Greater & Lesser Trochanters are attachment sites for buttock muscles

  24. Greater Trochanter

  25. Patella, Pg. 154, Anterior View The patella protects the knee joint

  26. Tibia, Pg. 155, Anterior View Tibial Tuberosity Attachment site for patellar ligament & quadriceps muscles Medial Malleolus Helps stabilize the ankle joint

  27. Tibial Tuberosity

  28. Fibula, Pg. 155, Anterior View The lateral malleolus helps to stabilize the ankle joint Lateral Malleolus

  29. Distinguishing between the Tibia & Fibula The Tibia is Tough The Fibula is Flimsy

  30. The Foot, Pg. 156, Lateral View Tarsals Metatarsals Phalanges

  31. Attachment site for the Achilles (Calcaneal) tendon Calcaneus

  32. Achilles Tendon

  33. Distinguishing the Carpals & Tarsals The Carpals are in the hand where some people suffer from “Carpal Tunnel Syndrome” The Tarsals are near the Toes

  34. Do Activity 5 – Pg. 156 Do Activity 6 - Construct a Skeleton
