Our body is capable of performing a wide variety of simple and complex functions. It is able to do so because of the internal structure that facilitates its movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HUMAN BODY AND ITS MOVEMENTS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summary<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The human skeleton is the internal framework which is responsible for giving support, shape and protection to our bodies. It contains 206 bones, each playing a distinct yet important task. The skeleton can be classified into two parts called as the axial and the appendicular. The axial skeleton comprises of the central part of the skull, spine, and ribs and the appendicular skeleton consists of the arms and legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Terms –<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limbs:<\/strong> The arms or legs of an animal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bones: <\/strong>These are the hard white structures below our skin that protect our internal organs. Bones are incapable of bending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joints:\u00a0<\/strong>These are defined as the points at which two bones are fitted together. These are the points at which we can rotate and bend our bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Joints and their Location in the Human Body<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ball and socket joint<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In the\u00a0Ball and Socket joint<\/strong>, a partial spherical structure is present inside a socket allowing movement in all directions. e.g. hips and arms<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A\u00a0joint\u00a0<\/strong>in which the rounded surface of a bone moves within a depression on another bone, allowing greater freedom of movement than any other kind of\u00a0joint<\/strong>. It is also called a spheroidal\u00a0joint<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hinge joints<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When bones can move along one axis, it indicates the presence of\u00a0Hinge joint<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Joints have more movement than others, like the joints in toes and fingers. Such joints are known as hinge joints.Ex For instance, human fingers, toes, elbows, knees, and ankles contain hinge joints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Hinge Joints:The Elbow,The Jaw,The Hand,The Foot,The Knee,The Ankle:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pivotal Joint<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A Pivot joint is a joint that rotates. Examples of pivot joints in the body in the neck that allows the head to rotate and the ones between the radius and ulna that allow forearm rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fixed joints:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the name suggests\u00a0Fixed joint\u00a0<\/strong>allows no movement to occur. e.g Skull<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some joints between bones in our head are different from those we have discussed so far. The bones cannot move at these joints. Such joints are called fixed joints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Human Skeleton<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Skeleton:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The skeleton<\/em> consists of both fused and individual bones supported and supplemented by ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage. The human skeleton is composed of around 305 bones at birth. The number of bones in the skeleton changes with age. It decreases to 206 bones by adulthood after some bones have fused together. feel the bones of your ankle and knee joints and compare these with the X-ray images. It seems to have many bones. It is made up of several small bones called carpels. They join the chest bone and the backbone together to form a box. This is called the rib cage. There are 12 ribs on each side of the chest. Some important internal parts of our body lie protected inside this cage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Backbone<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is made up of many small bones called vertebrae. The backbone consists of 33 vertebrae. . It is made up of many small bones called vertebrae. The backbone consists of 33 vertebrate . The rib cage is joined to these bones. If backbone was made up of only one long bone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bones on the back are prominent where the shoulders are? They are called shoulder bone<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The skull is made up of many bones joined together (Fig. 8.14). It encloses and protects a very important part of the body, the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

some additional parts of the skeleton that are not as hard as the bones and which can be bent. These are called cartilage cartilage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Muscle<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Muscles work in pairs. When one of them contracts, the bone is pulled in that direction. The other muscle of the pair relaxes. To move the bone in the opposite direction, the relaxed musle contracts to pull the bone towards its original position, while the first relaxes. A muscle can only pull. It cannot push. Thus, two muscles have to work together to move a bone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important Points to remember in a Human Skeleton:<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Bones provide support, protection, movement and perform several other functions.<\/li>
  • The bones in the skull (Cranium, Mandible, Maxilla) give protection to the brain.<\/li>
  • The long bones such as humerus, radius, ulna, tibia, fibula support the weight of body<\/li>
  • The carpals are located in wrist and tarsals are located in ankles. They are examples of short bones.<\/li>
  • The bones protecting the spine are called as the vertebral column. Cervical area (top 7 vertebrae), Thoracic (next 12), Lumbar (bottom 5 vertebrae), Sacrum (5 fused or stuck together bones) and Coccyx (the tiny bit at the bottom of the spine).<\/li>
  • The sternum and rib cage constitute the chest bones.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Detailed Movement in Earthworm<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      The body of an earthworm is made up of many rings joined end to end. This is called the shell and it is the outer skeleton of the snail but is not made of bones. The shell is a single unit and does not help in moving from place to place. It has to be dragged along. Place the snail on a glass plate and watch it. When it starts moving, carefully lift the glass plate along with the snail over your head. Observe its movements from beneath. A thick structure and the head of the snail may come out of an opening in Movement of earthworm does not have bones. It has muscles which help to extend and shorten the body. During movement, the earthworm first extends the front part of the body, keeping the rear portion fixed to the ground. Then it fixes the front end and releases the rear end. It then shortens the body and pulls the rear end forward. This makes it move forward by a small distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        • 3 pairs of legs help in walking and 4 wings help to fly<\/li>
        • The body muscles move the wings when it flies<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Cockroaches walk and climb as well as fly in the air. They have three pairs of legs. These help in walking. The body is covered with a hard outer skeleton. This outer skeleton is made of a number of plates joined together and that permits movement. There are two pairs of wings attached to the body behind the head. The cockroaches have distinct muscles those near the legs move the legs for walking. The body muscles move the wings when the cockroach flies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Birds<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
          • Their forelimbs are modified into wings\u00a0<\/li>
          • Presence of hollow and light bones, reduces weight.<\/li>
          • Hind limbs help in walking and perching<\/li>
          • They have strong shoulder bones<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Birds fly in the air and walk on the ground. Some birds like ducks and swans also swim in the water. The birds can fly because their bodies are well suited for flying. Their bones are hollow and light. The bones of the hind limbs are typical for walking and perching. The breastbones are modified to hold muscles of flight which is used to move the wings up and down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Fish<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            • Coordination between muscles and tail help the fish to move.<\/li>
            • Fins aid the movement in the water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              This body shape is called streamlined. The shape is such that water can flow around it easily and allow the fish to move in the water. The skeleton of the fish is covered with strong muscles. During swimming, muscles make the front part of the body curve to one side and the tail part swings towards the opposite side. This makes a jerk and pushes the body forward. A series of such jerks make the fish swim ahead. This is helped by the fins of the tail. Fish also have other fins on their body which mainly help to keep the balance of the body and to keep direction, while swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              How do snakes move<\/strong>: <\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

              • They cannot move on a frictionless surface.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Snakes have a long backbone. They have many thin muscles. They are connected to each other even though they are far from one another. Muscles also interconnect the backbone, ribs, and skin. The snake\u2019s body curves into many loops. Each loop of the snake gives it a forward push by pressing against the ground. Since its long body makes many loops and each loop gives it this push, the snake moves forward very fast and not in a straight-line<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  5. How do the muscles work?<\/strong>
                  Ans:\u00a0<\/strong>The muscles work in pairs. When one of them contracts, the bone is pulled in that direction, and the other muscle of the pair relaxes. To move the bone in the opposite direction, the relaxed muscle contracts to pull the bone towards its original position, while the first relax. A muscle can only pull. It cannot push.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Ans:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Earthworm does not have bones. It has muscles. During the movement, earthworm first extends front part of the body keeping the rear portion fixed to the ground. Then it fixes the front and releases the rear end. It then shortens the body and pulls the rear end forward. In this way by repeating such muscular expansions and contractions earthworm moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Ans:<\/strong>\u00a0The rounded structure on the back of the snail is called shell. It is the outer\u00a0skeleton (exoskeleton) of snail. When it starts moving a thick structure and the\u00a0head of the snail may come out of an opening in the shell. The thick structure\u00a0is called foot, which is made up of strong muscles. It helps snail in moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Ans:<\/strong>\u00a0The body of fish is streamlined. The streamlined shape helps the fish to move in water. The skeleton of fish is covered with muscles which make the front part of the body to curve to one side and the tail part swings towards the opposite side. This makes a jerk and pushes the body forward. In this way it moves in water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
