Osteology's Application, Aim, and Scope
Overview
Osteology is the study, characterization, and examination of bones, as well as their structures and purposes. Osteology is divided into two primary categories: human and animal.
Human Osteology
There are 206 bones in the human body, and they can be divided into four different categories based on how they are shaped: long bones, short bones, flat bones, and irregular bones. Compact bone, which is located on the surface of bones and is solid and dense, and spongy bone, which is porous and found inside of bones, are two different types of tissues that make up bones.
Bones have several functions, which include:
- Serving as a framework to hold the body up and safeguard our internal organs, such as the heart and lungs. Our bones also have ligaments, tendons, and muscles that help us move.
- Generating platelets and blood cells, which are essential for the production of new blood and the healing of wounds.
- Storing energy reserves like lipids as well as minerals like calcium and phosphorus.
Animal Osteology
Bones from animals can have different structures, densities, and mineral contents than those from humans. For instance, the hollow bones of birds include air sacs that allow the birds to breathe enough oxygen to fly. Some animals' teeth may also be formed differently depending on their food. For instance, herbivores like cows have flat, wide teeth that aid in the chewing of plant material.
Applications of Osteology
Osteology is utilized in a number of applications since bones may reveal a lot about a person, including:
- Shedding light on the food and historical evolution of humans, as well as any illnesses they may have developed
- Identifying relics discovered at a historical location
- Looking into a crime scene
- Demonstrating the historical movement of people between different locations
