Vertebral Column
By,M. Thiru murugan
Vertebral column:
The vertebral column encloses the spinal cord and the fluid surrounding the spinal cord. Also called backbone, spinal column, and spine.
Each vertebra is separated by a disc called intervertebral disc
The vertebrae surround and protect the spinal cord. The spinal cord is divided into segments, each containing a pair of spinal nerves that send messages between the brain and the rest of the body.
Many spinal nerves extend beyond the conus medullaris (the end of the spinal cord) to form a bundle of nerves called the cauda equina.
The vertebral column is made up 26
Cervical vertebrae: These 7 bones are found in the head and neck.
Thoracic vertebrae: These 12 bones are found in the upper back.
Lumbar vertebrae: These 5 bones are found in the lower back.
The sacrum (5) and coccyx (4) are both made up of several fused vertebrae. They help support the weight of the body while sitting.
Parts of the vertebrae:
The vertebrae of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spines are independent bones and generally quite similar.
The vertebrae of the sacrum & coccyx are usually fused and unable to move independently.
2 special vertebrae are the atlas (cervical 1) and axis (cervical 2), on which the head rests.
A typical vertebra consists of 2 parts: the vertebral body and the vertebral arch.
Vertebral body: Vertebral body is the thick oval segment of bone forming the front of the vertebra also called the centrum. The cavity of the vertebral body consists of cancellous bone tissue and is encircled by a protective layer of compact bone.
The vertebral arch is posterior, meaning it faces the back of a person.
Together, these enclose the vertebral foramen, which contains the spinal cord.
Because the spinal cord ends in the lumbar spine, and the sacrum and coccyx are fused, they do not contain a central foramen.
The vertebral arch is formed by a pair of pedicles & a pair of laminae, and supports 7 processes (4 articular, 2 transverse, and 1 spinous)
4 articular process: 2 articular process for above vertebrae & 2 articular process for ribs.
2 transverse processes and 1spinous process are posterior to (behind) the vertebral body.
The spinous process comes out the back, The spinous processes of the cervical and lumbar regions can be felt through the skin.
1 transverse process comes out the left, and 1 on the right.
Above & below each vertebra are joints called facet joints. These restrict the range of movement possible
In between each pair of vertebrae are 2 small holes called intervertebral foramina. The spinal nerves leave the spinal cord through these holes.
Cervical spine:
The cervical spine located in the neck area, consists of seven bones (C1 to C7)
The first two cervical spine are unique in shape and function.
first vertebra (C1), also called the atlas, The atlas holds head upright.
The second vertebra (C2), also called the axis, allows the atlas to rotation of head.
Functions:
Protecting spin
This document provides an overview of anatomy and physiology. It discusses that the human body is made up of systems that work interdependently to keep the body functioning normally. Anatomy is the study of body structures and their relationships, often through dissection or advanced imaging. Physiology is the study of how body systems function and maintain life. Understanding anatomy and physiology is important for nurses to properly assess, plan, and evaluate patient care. The document then discusses the levels of biological organization in the body and provides examples of anatomical terminology. It also describes the major body cavities and their contents.
The document provides information about the musculoskeletal system, which is composed of three subsystems: the skeletal system, articular system, and muscular system. It describes the anatomy and functions of the bones, joints, and muscles that make up the axial skeleton (skull, vertebral column, rib cage) and appendicular skeleton (shoulder, pelvis, upper and lower limbs). The skeletal system provides structure, movement, mineral storage, blood cell formation. Typical bones have projections like processes and depressions like foramina that serve attachment and passage functions.

Understanding anatomy and physiology is important for nurses to properly assess, plan, and evaluate patient care. The document then discusses the levels of biological organization in the body and provides examples of anatomical terminology. It also describes the major body cavities and their contents.
The document provides information about the musculoskeletal system, which is composed of three subsystems: the skeletal system, articular system, and muscular system. It describes the anatomy and functions of the bones, joints, and muscles that make up the axial skeleton (skull, vertebral column, rib cage) and appendicular skeleton (shoulder, pelvis, upper and lower limbs). The skeletal system provides structure, movement, mineral storage, blood cell formation. Typical bones have projections like processes and depressions like foramina that serve attachment and passage functions.
This document provides an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal system. It describes the bones that make up the skull, vertebral column, pelvis, and extremities. It discusses the types of joints in the body including fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial joints. It also covers the microscopic structure of skeletal muscle fibers and their attachments, blood supply, and function. The document is an introductory overview of the key components and structures of the musculoskeletal system.
The document defines anatomical terms and references used to describe the human body. It discusses anatomical position, the three anatomical planes (medial, transverse, frontal), five body regions (head, neck, trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities), five body cavities (cranial, abdominal, thoracic, pelvic, spinal) and organs within each cavity. It also describes the four abdominal quadrants and main organs within each quadrant, and explains how anatomical references are used to describe the location of wounds or injuries on a patient's body.
The skeletal system consists of bones, cartilage, and other connective tissues. It has several functions including support, protection, movement, blood cell formation, and mineral storage. There are different types of bones classified by shape, organization, and histological structure. Long bones have a shaft and two ends, while other bones like those in the skull are flat, irregular, or short. Cartilage is weaker but more flexible than bone and found in joints. The skeletal system includes the axial skeleton of the skull, vertebral column, ribs, and appendicular skeleton of shoulder, pelvis, and limbs.
This document provides an overview of human anatomy and physiology, describing the major anatomical systems of the body including: cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, skeletal, nervous, muscular and endocrine. It emphasizes the importance for fitness professionals to understand how the structural levels of the body from cells to tissues to organs to systems work together to support overall health and function.
The skeletal system consists of 206 bones that form the framework of the body. There are two main parts - the axial skeleton along the body's central axis including the skull, vertebral column, and ribcage, and the appendicular skeleton of the limbs. The axial skeleton has 80 bones and protects internal organs. The appendicular skeleton has 126 bones and includes the shoulder and pelvic girdles and upper and lower limbs. Together the skeletal system provides structure, movement, protection, blood cell production, mineral storage, and triglyceride reserves for the body.
The human skeletal system consists of bones and cartilage that provide structure, protect organs, allow for movement, store minerals, and produce blood cells. The skeletal system is divided into the axial skeleton which includes the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage, and the appendicular skeleton which includes the pectoral and pelvic girdles and upper and lower limbs. Bones develop through either intramembranous ossification which forms bone directly from mesenchymal cells, or endochondral ossification which first forms cartilage that is then replaced with bone.

The skeletal system has 206 bones that are divided into the axial skeleton (bones of the head, vertebral column, sternum, and ribs) and appendicular skeleton (limbs and their attachments). The axial skeleton includes the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage. It encloses and protects the brain, spinal cord, thoracic organs, and abdomen. The appendicular skeleton includes the pectoral girdle, upper limbs, pelvic girdle, and lower limbs. Bones are joined together at joints, which can be fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial, allowing different ranges of motion. Common disorders of the skeletal system include arthritis, osteoporosis, gout, and
The musculoskeletal system consists of the skeletal and muscular systems. The skeletal system includes 206 bones that make up the axial skeleton (skull, vertebral column, rib cage) and appendicular skeleton (shoulder and pelvic girdles, upper and lower limbs). Bones develop through the processes of ossification and remodeling. The skeletal system works with muscles to allow movement and protect organs.
Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body. It involves investigating organs, bones, structures, and cells at both the macro and microscopic level. The human body consists of 11 organ systems that work together, including the skeletal, muscular, nervous, respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic, endocrine, reproductive, urinary, and digestive systems. Anatomy uses specific anatomical terminology to describe body positions, planes, directions, and individual structures like bones. Bones can be classified based on their composition, shape, and location in the body.
This document defines various anatomical terminology and describes the four main body cavities - cranial, thoracic, abdominal and pelvic cavities. It explains that the cranial cavity contains the brain and is bounded by bones of the skull. The thoracic cavity contains organs like the lungs, heart and esophagus and is bounded by ribs, vertebrae and the diaphragm. The abdominal cavity is the largest cavity and contains organs like the stomach, liver and intestines. The pelvic cavity contains reproductive and excretory organs and is bounded by bones of the pelvis.

Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.

Understanding Atherosclerosis Causes, Symptoms, Complications, and Preventionrealmbeats0
Definition: Atherosclerosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of plaques, which are made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances, in the walls of arteries. Over time, these plaques harden and narrow the arteries, restricting blood flow.
Importance: This condition is a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, carotid artery disease, and peripheral artery disease. Understanding atherosclerosis is crucial for preventing these serious health issues.
Overview: We will cover the aims and objectives of this presentation, delve into the signs and symptoms of atherosclerosis, discuss its complications, and explore preventive measures and lifestyle changes that can mitigate risk.
Aim: To provide a detailed understanding of atherosclerosis, encompassing its pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, and strategies for prevention and management.
Purpose: The primary purpose of this presentation is to raise awareness about atherosclerosis, highlight its impact on public health, and educate individuals on how they can reduce their risk through lifestyle changes and medical interventions.

Storyboard on Acne-Innovative Learning-M. pharm. (2nd sem.) CosmeticsMuskanShingari
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads, often on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. Acne can range from mild to severe and may cause emotional distress and scarring in some cases.
**Causes:**
1. **Excess Oil Production:** Hormonal changes during adolescence or certain times in adulthood can increase sebum (oil) production, leading to clogged pores.
2. **Clogged Pores:** When dead skin cells and oil block hair follicles, bacteria (usually Propionibacterium acnes) can thrive, causing inflammation and acne lesions.
3. **Hormonal Factors:** Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or certain medical conditions, can contribute to acne.
4. **Genetics:** A family history of acne can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.
**Types of Acne:**
- **Whiteheads:** Closed plugged pores.
- **Blackheads:** Open plugged pores with a dark surface.
- **Papules:** Small red, tender bumps.
- **Pustules:** Pimples with pus at their tips.
- **Nodules:** Large, solid, painful lumps beneath the surface.
- **Cysts:** Painful, pus-filled lumps beneath the surface that can cause scarring.
**Treatment:**
Treatment depends on the severity and type of acne but may include:
- **Topical Treatments:** Such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids to reduce bacteria and unclog pores.
- **Oral Medications:** Antibiotics or oral contraceptives for hormonal acne.
- **Procedures:** Such as chemical peels, extraction of comedones, or light therapy for more severe cases.
**Prevention and Management:**
- **Cleanse:** Regularly wash skin with a gentle cleanser.
- **Moisturize:** Use non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.
- **Avoid Irritants:** Such as harsh cosmetics or excessive scrubbing.
- **Sun Protection:** Use sunscreen to prevent exacerbation of acne scars and inflammation.
Acne treatment can take time, and consistency in skincare routines and treatments is crucial. Consulting a dermatologist can help tailor a treatment plan that suits individual needs and reduces the risk of scarring or long-term skin damage.

11. Organization of the body
DEFINITION: The organization of the human body is a
hierarchy of increasing size and complexity, starting at
the level of atoms and molecules , and ending at the level
of the entire organism.
12. Definitions
• Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body
and the physical relationships between its
constituent parts.
• Physiology is the study of how the body systems
work, and the ways in which their integrated
activities maintain life and health of the
individual.
• Pathology is the study of abnormalities and
pathophysiology considers how they affect body
functions, often causing illness.
13. organizations
• Organ system: An organ system is a biological
system consisting of a group of organs that work
together to perform one or more functions.
• Organ: In biology, an organ (from the Latin
"organum" meaning an instrument or tool) is a
collection of tissues that structurally form a
functional unit specialized to perform a particular
function. Your heart, kidneys, and lungs.
14. Organizations cont….
• Tissue: A tissue is a group of cells, in close
proximity, organized to perform one or more
specific functions. There are four basic tissue
types defined by their morphology and function:
epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle
tissue, and nervous tissue.
• Cell: the smallest structural and functional unit
of an organism, which is typically microscopic
and consists of cytoplasm and a nucleus enclosed
in a membrane.
15. The skeleton
• The skeleton is the bony framework of the
body.
• It forms the cavities and fossae (depressions
or hollows) that protect some structures,
forms the joints and gives attachment to
muscles.
• The skeleton is described in two parts: axial
and appendicular (the appendages attached
to the axial skeleton).
16.
17. Axial skeleton
• The axial skeleton (axis of the body) consists of
the skull, vertebral column, sternum (breast
bone) and the ribs.
• Skull
• The skull is described in two parts, the cranium,
which contains the brain, and the face. It consists
of several bones, which develop separately but
fuse together as they mature. The only movable
bone is the mandible or lower jaw.
18. Functions
• The various parts of the skull have specific and
different functions and are, in summary:
– Protection of delicate structures including the
brain, eyes and inner ears
– Maintaining patency of the nasal passages
enabling breathing
– Eating – the teeth are embedded in the mandible
and maxilla; and movement of the mandible
allows chewing.
19. Vertebral column
• This consists of 24 movable bones (vertebrae) plus
the sacrum and coccyx. The bodies of the bones are
separated from each other by intervertebral discs,
consisting of fibrocartilage.
• The vertebral column is described in five parts and
the bones of each part are numbered from above
downwards:
– 7 cervical
– 12 thoracic
– 5 lumbar
– 1 sacrum (5 fused bones)
– 1 coccyx (4 fused bones).
20. • The first cervical vertebra, called the atlas, forms a
joint (articulates) with the skull. Thereafter each
vertebra forms a joint with the vertebrae
immediately above and below.
• More movement is possible in the cervical and
lumbar regions than in the thoracic region.
• The sacrum consists of five vertebrae fused into one
bone that articulates with the fifth lumbar vertebra
above, the coccyx below and an innominate (pelvic
or hip) bone at each side.
• The coccyx consists of the four terminal vertebrae
fused into a small triangular bone that articulates
with the sacrum above.
21.
22. Functions
• The vertebral column has several important
functions:
– It protects the spinal cord. In each vertebra is a
hole, the vertebral foramen, and collectively the
foramina form a canal in which the spinal cord lies
– Adjacent vertebrae form openings (intervertebral
foramina), which protect the spinal nerves as they
pass from the spinal cord
– In the thoracic region the ribs articulate with the
vertebrae forming joints that allow movement of
the ribcage during respiration.
23. Thoracic cage
• The thoracic cage is
formed by:
– 12 thoracic vertebrae
– 12 pairs of ribs
– 1 sternum or breast
bone.
24. Functions
The thoracic cage:
• Protects the contents of the thorax including
the heart, lungs and large blood vessels
• Forms joints between the upper limbs and the
axial skeleton. The upper part of the sternum,
the manubrium, articulates with the clavicles
forming the only joints between the upper
limbs and the axial skeleton
25. Cont
• gives attachment to the muscles of respiration:
– intercostal muscles occupy the spaces between
the ribs and when they contract the ribs move
upwards and outwards, increasing the capacity of
the thoracic cage, and inspiration occurs
– the diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle which
separates the thoracic and abdominal cavities;
when it contracts it assists with inspiration
• it enables breathing to take place.
26. Appendicular skeleton
• The appendicular skeleton consists of the shoulder
girdles and upper limbs, and the pelvic girdle and
lower limbs.
• The shoulder girdles and upper limbs. Each
shoulder girdle consists of a clavicle and a scapula.
Each upper limb comprises:
– 1 humerus
– 1 radius
– 1 ulna
– 8 carpal bones
– 5 metacarpal bones
– 14 phalanges.
27. Cont
• The pelvic girdle and lower limbs. The bones of
the pelvic girdle are the two innominate bones
and the sacrum.
• Each lower limb consists of:
– 1 femur
– 1 tibia
– 1 fibula
– 1 patella
– 7 tarsal bones
– 5 metatarsal bones
– 14 phalanges.
29. Functions
• The appendicular skeleton has two main
functions.
– Voluntary movement. The bones, muscles and
joints of the limbs are involved in movement of
the skeleton. This ranges from very fine finger
movements needed for writing to the coordinated
movement of all the limbs associated with running
and jumping.
30. Cont
–Protection of blood vessels and nerves. These
delicate structures along the length of bones
of the limbs are protected from injury by the
associated muscles and skin. They are most
vulnerable where they cross joints and
where bones can be felt immediately below
the skin.
31. Cavities of the body
• The body organs are contained and protected
within four cavities: cranial, thoracic, abdominal
and pelvic.
• Cranial cavity
• The cranial cavity contains the brain, and its
boundaries are formed by the bones of the skull:
– Anteriorly – 1 frontal bone
– Laterally – 2 temporal bones
– Posteriorly – 1 occipital bone
– Superiorly – 2 parietal bones
– Inferiorly – 1 sphenoid and 1 ethmoid bone and parts
of the frontal, temporal and occipital bones.
32. Thoracic cavity
• This cavity is situated in the upper part of the trunk.
• Its boundaries are formed by the thoracic cage and
supporting muscles:
• Anteriorly – the sternum and costal cartilages of the
ribs
• Laterally – 12 pairs of ribs and the intercostal muscles
• Posteriorly – the thoracic vertebrae
• Superiorly – the structures forming the root of the neck
• Inferiorly – the diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle.
33. Contents of the thoracic cavity
• The main organs and structures contained in the
thoracic cavity are:
– The trachea, 2 bronchi, 2 lungs
– The heart, aorta, superior and inferior vena cavae,
numerous other blood vessels
– The oesophagus
– Lymph vessels and lymph nodes
– Some important nerves.
• The mediastinum is the space between the lungs
including the structures found there, such as the
heart, oesophagus and blood vessels.
34. Abdominal cavity
• This is the largest body cavity and is oval in shape. It
occupies most of the trunk and its boundaries are:
• Superiorly – the diaphragm, which separates it from
the thoracic cavity
• Anteriorly – the muscles forming the anterior
abdominal wall
• Posteriorly – the lumbar vertebrae and muscles
forming the posterior abdominal wall
• Laterally – the lower ribs and parts of the muscles of
the abdominal wall
• Inferiorly – it is continuous with the pelvic cavity.
35. Cont
• By convention, the abdominal cavity is divided
into the nine regions shown in Figure 3.38.
This facilitates the description of the positions
of the organs and structures it contains.
36.
37. • Contents
• Most of the abdominal cavity is occupied by the
organs and glands of the digestive system.
• These are:
– the stomach, small intestine and most of the large
intestine
– the liver, gall bladder, bile ducts and pancreas.
• Other structures include:
– the spleen
– 2 kidneys and the upper part of the ureters
– 2 adrenal (suprarenal) glands
– numerous blood vessels, lymph vessels, nerves
– lymph nodes.
38.
39.
40. Pelvic cavity
• The pelvic cavity is roughly funnel shaped and
extends from the lower end of the abdominal
cavity and The boundaries are:
• Superiorly – it is continuous with the abdominal
cavity
• Anteriorly – the pubic bones
• Posteriorly – the sacrum and coccyx
• Laterally – the innominate bones
• Inferiorly – the muscles of the pelvic floor.
41. • Contents
• The pelvic cavity contains the following structures:
– sigmoid colon, rectum and anus
– some loops of the small intestine
– urinary bladder, lower parts of the ureters and the
urethra
• in the female, the organs of the reproductive
system:
– the uterus, uterine tubes, ovaries and vagina
• in the male, some of the organs of the
reproductive system:
– the prostate gland, seminal vesicles, spermatic cords,
deferent ducts (vas deferens), ejaculatory ducts and the
urethra (common to the reproductive and urinary
systems).
