Skeleton
Exoskeleton
-enclosed the bodies of arthropods (insects and crabs) -supports the important internal organs and protects the internal structures from damage -thin and flexible at joints -on a process called ecdysis, the insects shed their skeleton to increase in size
Endoskeleton
-found in all vertebrates -hardbskeleton of bones are made up of phosphate and calcium -important to maintain the body shape, supports the soft body tissues and protects the internal organs from getting injured -certain parts of endoskeleton stores minerals
Hydrostatic
-consists of internal fluids in the confined body cavity -the fluid is held under pressure in compartments surrounded by muscles -maintains the shape of soft-bodied organisms,such as hydra sp, earthworm and sea anemones

Cervical - composed of seven vertebrae and forming the neck. Thoracic - composed of twelve vertebrae and joining to the ribcage together forming the thorax. Lumbar composed of five vertebrae. These are the biggest in size. Sacrum composed of five fused vertebrae in adults. They may occur as separate bones in young children. They join with the hip bone forming the pelvis. Coccyx formed from the fusion of two or four vertebrae. Sometimes known as the tail bone.

Appendicular Skeleton
The bones that make up the appendicular skeleton are scapula, clavicle or collar bone, humerus, radius, ulna, tibia, femur, pelvic girdle and fibula.
Scapula - flat, triangular-shaped bone, that forms the skeletal basis of the shoulder. Humerus the bone of the upper arm, its upper end articulates with the scapula to form a ball-end-socket joint at the shoulder, allowing movement in all directions. Ulna longer bone of the forearm that articulates with the humerus. Radius flattened, slightly curved bone in the hand. Pelvic girdle provides connection between the axial skeleton and the hind limbs. Femur largest bone in the human body, its lower end articulates with the tibia to form a hinge joint at the knee. Fibula shorter and smaller bone, found along with the tibia, giving skeletal support to the leg. hsleonhs@hotmail.com
-cartilage (reduces friction is a shock absorber, cushions the joint, protects the bones from wearing away) -synovial fluid (acts as a lubicant, minimises the friction between the hsleonhs@hotmail.com ends of the bones)
-allow the bones to rotate in all directions -allow the swinging of arms and legs in a circular motion -example:the hip joint between ferum and the pelvic girdle, the shoulder joint between the humerus and the pectoral hsleonhs@hotmail.com girdle.
-Also called knee joints -found in the elbows, and phalanges of toes and fingers -allow the lower leg to swing back and forth -allow the movement of bones in one plate hsleonhs@hotmail.com -work like a hinge on a door
The movement of the forelimb is brought about by the contraction and relaxation of a pair of antagonistic muscles, namely the biceps and the triceps. The arm is flexed by the contraction of the bicep muscles. The tricep muscles relax as the bicep muscles become thicker and shorter. Contraction of the bicep muscles pulls the ulna up thus bending the arm at the elbow joint. To straighten the arm, the tricep muscles contract while the bicep muscles relax. Contraction of the tricep muscles pulls the ulna down and arm is straightened. hsleonhs@hotmail.com

Osteoporosis is a disease where the bone tissue starts eroding, making the bones brittle and prone to fractures. T is common in the elderly and women after menopause. Osteoporosis can be prevented by taking a diet rich in calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D, regular weight-bearing exercise, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol.

It is a genetic disorder of the muscle tissues caused by the lack of nourishment to the affected muscles. It causes the muscles in the body to become very weak. The muscles break down and are replaced with fatty deposits over time. Muscular dystrophy is more common in males than in females. It is usually seen in children between two to ten years old. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the most common form of muscular dystrophy, caused by an X-linked recessive gene.
Treatment-There is no known treatment, medicine, or surgery to cure muscular dystrophy or stop the muscles from weakening. The goal of treatment is to prevent deformity and allow the child to function as independently as possible.

Earthworm
-Invertebrate which do not have exoskeleton, but uses body fluid to maintain a hydrostatic skeleton. -The movement of the earthworm is aided by hydrostatic pressure so that the body of the earthworm can shorten, elongate and protrudes forward. -there are two pairs of muscle i.e. circular and longitudinal muscles that act antagonistically. -contraction and retraction of circular and longitudinal muscle will cause a peristalsis wave and enables it to move forward.

Grasshopper
Grasshoppers have an exoskeleton. Muscle bundles on the inside, are attached to the exoskeleton. Across the joints. The muscles work in that antagonistic pairs is known as the flexor and extensor muscles. The contraction results in the bending of the joint and the relaxation results in the extending of the joint. Antagonistic pairs allow movement of the appendage in both the directions. Grasshoppers have three pairs of legs. The body is supported on a tripod of three legs in walking. The other three legs pull or push the body forwards. The third pair legs are long with powerful muscles for jumping. The extensor muscles are attached to the tendons. Before jumping, the rear legs are fully flexed. Energy is stored in the elastic tendons caused by the contraction of both the flexor and the extensor muscles. During jumping, the flexor muscles relax and the extensor contract causing the rear legs to straighten. The energy stored in the tendon propels the grasshopper into the air. The grasshopper can jump 20 times its body length. Grasshoppers have a pair of wings. The wings are flattened extensions of the exoskeleton. During flight, the wings of the grasshopper move forwards and backwards, upwards and downwards through the air owing to contractions of the flight muscles. This produces a lift by driving the air downwards which in turn enables the grasshopper to lift off and fly.

Fish
Fish have a streamlined body, smooth and rounded at the anterior part of the fish, and long and tapering body towards the posterior end. This helps to overcome water resistance while moving in water. Fish swim by contracting and relaxing a succession of muscle blocks called myotomes. These muscle contract and relax alternately on each side of the body, starting at the head and progressing down towards the tail. The alternate contracting and relaxing of myotomes, which bends part of the body first towards the other side, result in a series of waves travelling down the fishs body. The rear part of each wave thrusts against the water and propels the fish forward. Fish have fins to overcome the instability in water while swimming. The dorsal and the ventral fins are useful in stabilising the fish as it swims, helping to change direction quickly, or used with the other fins for applying brakes. Paired pectoral and pelvic fins help to overcome rolling and pitching by stabilising the fishs body.

Bird
The birds wing has a curved shape called an aerofoil. The air on the upper part has a lower pressure than the air moving over the lower part. This pressure difference makes the lifting of the body possible by the wing. There are two pairs of antagonistic muscles that are evolved for flight. The larger pair called the pectoralis major contracts
for the downstroke. The pectoralis minor handles the upstroke, which needs far less power. Conversely, the contraction of the pectoralis major muscles moves the wing hsleonhs@hotmail.com downwards and backwards.
Frog
Frogs make use of their long hind legs to effect several kinds of locomotion such as jumping, hopping, swimming, burrowing, and climbing. The long hind legs have well developed muscles to lift them off the ground. When the frogs are at rest, the long hind legs are folded into a Z shape. Frogs crawl by extending and retracting their fore and hind limbs. During hopping, the extensor muscles contract rapidly, causing the hind legs to straighten suddenly. A force is produced to push the frog upwards and forwards. Frogs land on their short forelimbs. The short forelimbs absorb the shock of impact. Most frogs can jump ten times their body length.

Submerged Plants Floating plants
-Floating plant will float because of the stem and leave which consists of parenchyma cells that has a lot of air spaces. -The air is less compressed compared with the water hence making it float. -The roots are fibrous and spreads in the water surface so as to prevent them being carried away by the water flow and hold them in place by surface tension. -when there is growth in the middle of the roots, growth of roots is straight downwards so that they are more stable. -the leaves and shoots are waterproof so that water do not seep into the cells causing damage. Lotus Eichhornia sp.

They depend on the turgidity of the cells and other supportive tissues for support. Parenchyma tissues store starch, sugars and water. These cells maintain the turgidity of the plants to give support to the plant. Collenchyma tissues support young and herbaceous plants. These cells have slightly thickened walls of cellulose which give support to the leaf or flower stalk and young stems.
