The Tissue's and Ligaments

The Tissue's and Ligaments:

Ligaments:
Thickened portions of a joint capsule are called ligaments.
They check movements beyond normal permissible limits.
 If there is simple injury to the ligaments of the joints, it is called sprain.

Connective Tissue:
consists of yellow elastic and white fibrous tissue intermixed in varying proportions.
It is present in many parts of the body and forms a layer between the skin and under-lying flesh all over the body.
fat being contained between its meshes. often in large quantties. 
The chief use of connective tissue is to bind parts together The skin covers the whole of the body and protects the under-lying structures.
It consists of two layers. The outer or hard layer(cuticle) and the inner layer true skin or dermis).
In the latter are numerous glands which secrete sweat(consisting of water and impurities from the blood)
The evaporation of which from the surface of the skin cools it and helps to regulate the temperature of the body.

The muscles and nerves

MUSCLES AND NERVES
1.MUSCLES:
The muscles to the layman mean flesh and are primarily meant to produce movement of the limbs and organs. There are broadly two types of muscles, viz.
Voluntary muscles which can cause movement under the dictates of will and involuntary muscles like those found in the heart which continues to work even without the dictates the will.

2.NERVES:
The muscles go into action called contraction by stimuli of nerves arising from brain or spinal cord carrying the damage to the nerves result in paralysis of the muscles just as cutting the wire between a battery and the Bulb, impedes the flow of electricity.

The Bone foots and joints

THE FOOTS AND JOINTS
1. The foots:
These comprise 7 irregular bones-tarsus at the 'instep'. 
The largest, the heel bone and the uppermost forms the lower parts of the ankle joint.

2. The Joints:
Joints are the junction of two or more bones. These may be no movement as in skull or there may be free movements as in knee, elbow, shoulder and hip joints.
In movable joints, the ends of the bones are covered by cartilage and is overall again encased in capsule with some lubricant material inside the joint.

The Pelvis and Lower limbs

The Pelvis and Lower limbs
1. Pelvis
           The two hip bones joined together from the pelvis. The pelvis forms a basin-shaped cavity which contains intestines, urinary bladder and reproductive organs. There are two sockets on either sides of the pelvis. Where the thing bone join, forming the Hip bone joint.
2. Lower limbs
            The femur or thing bone is the longest and strongest bone in the body. It's upper end forms a part of a knee cap (Patella) is a small bone over the front of the knee joint lying loosely in the muscles ligaments and under the skin.
        It's sharp edge can be felt immediately beneath the skin of the front of the leg. The fibula lies on the outer side of Tibia. It does not enter into a formation of the knee-joint but it's lower end forms the outer parts of the ankle-joint.

The upper limbs and shoulder bone

The Ribs and Shoulder Bone(clavicle)

  • The bones are the collar bone(clavicle) one on each side between upper part of the breast bone on the front and shoulder joint and the shoulder blade(scapula).
  • The clavicle is a very brittle bone and is common site of fracture.
  • It's function is top keep away the upper limb from the chest.
  • One should each side in the upper and outer part on the back of the chest.
  • The bones of upper limbs are:
  1. Upper arm bone (humerus).
  2. Forearm bones

These are two bones:

  1. Radius (Outer side of forearm)
  2. Ulna (Inner side of forearm)
  • These are 8 carpal bones at the wrist and five metacarpal bones at the palm of the hand.
  • These are three small bones in each finger called phalanges and 2 bones for each thumb.

The Ribs and Breast Bone (Sternum)

The Ribs and Breast Bone (Sternum)
There are twelve pairs of ribs which are attached to the corresponding
vertebrae at the back. The first seven pairs of these ribs are attached
to the breast bone in front, eighth, ninth and tenth ribs are attached to
the rib above and last two pairs of ribs, i.e. eleventh and twelfth, have
no attachment in front and are known as "floating ribs". The ribs and
breast bone are liable to be fractured in accidents due to either direct
or indirect causes. An injury of the rib should be taken seriously and
requires urgent hospitalisation.

The backbone functions at human body

BACKBONE FUNCTIONS

It consist the thirty three small rounded small pieces of bones, each called a vertebra, placed one above the other:

7  in the Neck Region             (Cervical)
12in the Back Region              (Thoracic or dorsal)
5 in the waist  Region             (Lumbar)
5 in the Hip    Region              (Sacral)
4 in the Tail    Region              (Coccygial)
       In between each vertebra, there is a thick piece of cartilage, called "Disc" which allows movement as well as acts as a shock absorber. There is a central canel through which the spinal cord passes and carries nerve inpulses and  from the brain. 
       There is any injury. one vertebra may be displaced over another, thus the the cord is pressed or cut causing paralysis, due to interruption in the pathway of nerves Ths damage may occur immediately at the time of injury or may be caused by careless handling after the accident. 
        It is, therefore, extremely important to handle with care all persons who have suffered severe injury to their back or neck.
