Lab 6 Appendicular Skeleton
Work through your models and the diagrams below. You will label the unlabeled diagrams in
this lab and submit them for this lab. Just focus on knowing the name of the bones. We will deal
with the bony landmarks of the axial and appendicular skeleton in the next lab. Appendicular Skeleton Bones
We covered the axial bones in the last lab. In this lab, we will finish the skeletal system by
learning the names of the appendicular skeleton's bones. As a review, do you remember the
bones that make up the axial skeleton? Figure 1: The bones of the axial and appendicular skeleton Task 1: Use Figure 1 to help you list all the appendicular skeleton bones. by Unknown Author is licensed under
Having listed the bones, let’s look at them by breaking them down into the shoulder and pelvic
girdles bones and the upper and lower extremities. Shoulder Girdle These bones are critical in moving our arms (upper extremities). The should girdle is comprised
of the clavicle (commonly known as your ____bone) and the scapula. Figure 1: X-ray of the (R or L) shoulder girdle Task 2: Look at the X-ray above. Try to position your own body in the same orientation as this
image. Doing this will help you side this image (remember SAP). Write down your observation
from this image (what bones can you label, what structures are foreign [implanted])? If you’re a
bit stumped, take a breath and monitor your breathing. Be in your body, then remind yourself
that you have knowledge and to work from what you know. To that end, remember from lab 5 the difference between the brighter white structures and the
black spaces? If not, consider that denser structures absorb more X-rays, giving them a brighter
appearance. Use this to help you in making observations. by Unknown Author is licensed under by Unknown Author is licensed under by Unknown Author is licensed under
Observations: Class discussion on Figure 1 Takeaways:
Upper Extremities
The upper extremities include which bones? Can you name each individual carpal bone?
Task 3: Look at the images of the carpal bones below. Can you come up with a cool mnemonic
or find one for remembering their orientation relative to each other? The carpal bones, do they
make up your wrist or palms of hands? by Unknown Author is licensed under by Unknown Author is licensed under
