Ribs (Costae) and rib cage • The long curved bones which form the rib cage which consists of 12 pair of ribs, the sternum, costal cartilages, and the 12 thoracic vertebrae. • Rib cage surrounds the thoracic (chest) cavity • enabling the lungs to expand and thus facilitate breathing by expanding the chest cavity. • Protect the lungs, heart, and other internal organs of the thorax.
Thoracic Cage Sternum True Ribs (1-7)
Costal cartilages
False Ribs (8-10)

Skeleton of The Upper Limb Components: • Bones of the shoulder girdle • Bones of upper limbs – Humerus – Ulna – Radius – Carpals – Metacarpals – Phalanges
•Bones of the Shoulder Girdle • Clavicle • Scapula
Scapula
Two surfaces : • anterior surface - subscapular fossa • dorsal surface - spine of scapula, acromion, supraspinous fossa, infraspinous fossa
Scapula
Three borders • Superior - coracoid process, suprascapular notch • Lateral • medial
Scapula
Three angles: • Superior • Inferior- the 7th rib • lateral - glenoid cavity

The humerus The upper (proximal) end: – Head of humerus – Greater tubercle(lateral) – Lesser tubercle (medial) – Surgical neck Body: – Deltoid tuberosity – Sulcus for radial nerve The lower end: – Capitulum(lateral ) – Trochlea(medial) – Coronoid fossa(ant) – Olecranon fossa(post) – Lateral and medial epicondyles – Sulcus for ulnar nerve

Bones of the hand 1. Carpal bones( bones of the wrist , 8) • The proximal row:(L →M) – scaphoid, lunate, triquetral and pisiform bones
• The distal row : – trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and hamate
2. Metacarpal bones (5) 3. Phalanges (14)
Bones of the Lower Limb • Components: 1. Pelvic girdle (2) 2. Bones of lower limb – Thigh • Femur(1) – Knee • Patella(1) – Leg • Tibia (medial)(1) • Fibula (lateral)(1) – Foot • Tarsals (7) • Metatarsals (5) • Phalanges (14)
I. Pelvis girdle • Formed by a pair of “hip” bones, connected in front at the pubic symphysis and behind by the sacrum • Attaches the lower limbs to the axial skeleton • Transmits the weight of the upper body to the lower limbs • Supports the visceral organs of the pelvis
Hip Bone Components: • Ilium-the large upper portion Ilium • Ischium-the posterior/inferior bone • Pubis-the anterior/inferior bone Acetabulum • Acetabulum: point of Ischium Pubis fusion of all three

Medial view
Hip Bone • 3 parts – united by the triradiate cartilage which begins to fuse at
15-17 years and completes fusion at
20-25 years.
1.Ilium Bone marks: • iliac crest; • iliac tubercle • anterior superior iliac spine
• anterior inferior iliac spine • posterior superior iliac spine • posterior inferior iliac spine • acetabulum; • iliac fossa • arcuate line

• lesser sciatic notch Obturator foramen - formed by ischium and pubis Acetabulum- formed by ilium, ischium and pubis
Bones of lower limb 1. Femur • the largest, longest, and strongest bone in the body. • Receives a lot of stress • Articulates with acetabulum proximally
• Articulates with tibia and patella distally
Bone Marks: Upper end: • Head-fovea capitis • Neck- often a site for fracture • Greater and lesser trochanter: attachment site for muscles • Intertrochanteric line (anterior) • Intertrochanteric crest (posterior)

Femur
– Triangular sesamoid bone – Protects knee joint – Improves leverage of thigh muscles acting across the knee – Contained within patellar ligament
2.Patella
3. Tibia • Tibia – Receives the weight of body from femur and transmits to foot – Second to femur in size and weight – Articulates with fibula proximally and distally – Interosseous membrane joins tibia & fibula – Forms the medial malleolus
Landmarks:
3. Tibia
• Tibial tuberosity - protuberance on the anterior surface just below the condyles. Is the attachment site of the patellar ligament. •Anterior crest •Medial malleolus - Large bony prominence on the medial side of the ankle
•Fibular notch - Distal end of tibia, where it articulates with the distal end of the fibula
4. Fibula • Fibula – Located posterior –lateral
to the tibia – Serves as a site for muscle attachment – Forms the lateral malleolus – Does NOT bear weight
– Not part of knee joint – Stabilize ankle joint
5. Foot • Function: – Supports the weight
of the body – Act as a lever to propel the body forward
• Tarsal bones (in the ankle,7) • Metatarsal bones (In between the tarsals and phanges,5). • Phalanges bones (toes,14).

Arches of Foot • 3 arches – Medial Longitudinal – Lateral – Transverse • Has tendons that run inferior to foot bones – Help support arches of foot • Function – Recoil after stepping
