5N0749 Anatomy and Physiology - QQI Level 5

ASSESSMENT - The Muscular System, the Skeletal System and their Inter-Connections.

Assessment Guidelines:

1. Explain in detail the Skeletal System. Use diagrams to aid in your explanations.
2. Explain in detail the Muscular System. Use diagrams to aid in your explanations.
3. Explain fully how the Skeletal and Muscular systems interconnect. Use diagrams to aid in your explanation.
4. Show how the skeletal and muscular systems work together in order to achieve optimum health and performance in our daily lives.

Learning Outcome 1: Outline the composition of bone, including the functions of the skeleton, the main bones of the appendicular and axial skeleton and the structure of a typical long bone

Learning Outcome 2: Identify the major categories and functions of joints, differentiating between the four types of synovial joints

Learning Outcome 3: Identify the main muscles of the body, differentiating between the three types of muscle and the interconnections between the skeletal and muscular systems in body movement
