What Is the Skeletal System?

The skeletal system is the body's internal framework. It is made up mainly of bones , along with joints, cartilage, ligaments, and other supporting tissues . Together, these structures give the body its shape, support its weight, protect important organs, and help the body move. An adult human skeleton normally contains 206 bones . Babies are born with more bones, many of which gradually fuse together as they grow. Main Functions of the Skeletal System The skeletal system performs several important functions: 1. Support Bones provide a strong framework that supports the body and helps maintain its shape and posture. 2. Protection Bones protect delicate internal organs from injury. For example: The skull protects the brain. The rib cage protects the heart and lungs. The vertebral column surrounds and helps protect the spinal cord. 3. Movement Bones work together with muscles and joints to produce movement. Muscles pull on bones through tendons, allowing us to wal...

Submandibular Gland: Anatomy, Relations, Nerve Supply & Clinical Anatomy

BASIC ANATOMY The submandibular triangle lies between the inferior border of the mandible superiorly, the posterior belly of the digastric and stylohyoid muscles posteriorly and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle anteriorly (. The submandibular triangle must be distinguished from the submandibular ‘space’. It can be divided into three surgical planes from superficial to deep The submandibular gland is one of the three major paired salivary glands.For more information, see our guide to the Parotid Gland . It is a mixed salivary gland, with predominantly serous secretion and a smaller mucous component. .It is located beneath the floor of the mouth, around the posterior part of the mandible. .The gland is clinically important because its duct is closely related to the lingual nerve, and the gland is a common site of salivary stones (sialolithiasis). Location The submandibular gland lies mainly in the submandibular triangle of the neck. It wraps around the posterior ...

Parotid Gland: Anatomy, Relations, Nerve Supply & Clinical Anatomy

The parotid gland is the largest of the three major paired salivary glands. It is a predominantly serous salivary gland located on either side of the face, mainly in the region between the ear and the angle of the mandible. The three major salivary glands are: * Parotid gland – mainly serous * Submandibular gland – mixed, predominantly serous * Sublingual gland – mixed, predominantly mucous The parotid gland is clinically important because the facial nerve passes through the gland and divides into its terminal branches within it. Location of the Parotid Gland The parotid gland lies in the parotid region, below and in front of the external ear. It extends approximately from the region around the zygomatic arch superiorly to the angle of the mandible inferiorly. The gland is related to the: * Ramus of the mandible * Mastoid process * Styloid process * External ear region The gland is enclosed by a tough parotid fascia, which contributes to its capsule. Parts of the Parotid Gland Th...
