Explain each of these terms
(a) Skulls
(b) Ribcage
(c) Backbone
(d) Pelvic bone
Answer
Skull
The bony part of head is called skull. The skull is made up many bones joined together. It protects the brain
Ribcage
Ribs are curved bones in the body. There are 12 pairs of ribs. the ribs are curiously bent. They join the chest bone and the backbone together to form a box. This is called a ribcage. Ribcage protects the internal organs of the body like heart, lungs
Backbone
The backbone is a long hollow, rod like structure running from the neck to the hips. Backbone is made up of 33 small bones placed one over the other. These small bones are called vertebrae. It provides support to the body and protects spinal cord
Pelvic bone
The pelvic bones form a large, basin shaped frame at the lower end of the backbone, to which legs are attached. The pelvic bones enclose the portion of our body below the stomach.
Question 7 Match the column
Column A
Column B
Ball and socket joint
In this joint, the movements of bones are allowed only in one direction i.e. forwards and backwards
Hinge joints
In this joint, the rounded end of one bone fits into cavity (hollow space) of the other bone directions.
Pivot join
In this joint, the bones are held so tightly together that they cannot move at all
Fixed join
In this joint, it allows rotation only. In this joint cylindrical bone rotates in a ring
