In: Anatomy and Physiology
Using Wolff's Law explain how you would distinguish each of the following characteristics:
Biological sex- How would you tell if the skeleton belonged to a male or female?
Weight- How would the skeleton of an underweight person appear versus an average or overweight person?
Height- How would Wolf's law affect the bones of a tall person versus a short person?
Overall health- What are some things you would look for to determine the overall health of the person?
Social Class- How would you be able to tell the difference between the wealthy and the non-wealthy?
wolff's low was given by German physiologist Wolff in 1990s Wolff demonstrated that bony trabeculae were arranged in response to stress lines on the bones
Bone is formed in just the the quantity and shape that will enable it to withstand the physical demands made upon it, with the greatest amount of economy of structure.
Characters of Wolff's low-
Human body structure depends upon the bone formation and articulation Each change in the form and function of a bone or only its function is followed by certain definitive changes in its internal architecture ,and secondary changes equally definitive in its external compliance,in accordance to the mathematics law.
Every bone function change in the internal architecture and in its external form.Bone in ahealthy person or animal will adapt to the loads under which it is placed
Biological sex skeletal male and female depends upon of musculoskeletal soft tissues like ligaments,tendons and muscles.
The bone and soft tissue will respond to physical demands placed on tham The internal architecture of bone is the size and shade of bone is a direct representation of the function it performs out so depends of males and female
wolff's law says to deponds upons the architecture so weight is deponds upons the body anatony and physiology weight is normal accordonding to body structure so tha there is no any effect of musculoskeletals there is overweight of the human boby when start the musculoskeletal problam like degeneration of the bone.reduceds daily activties,reduced joints movements etc
Wolff's low said regards to the height, The height is deponds uponds the elongation of the bone and reabsorption, elastic plastics ,yield point brittle ductile.They are also help blanced the body structure they are mantained those properties no more difference effect of height person and short person
Wealthy means there is no any problem of the musculoskeletal like osteoarthrites dental problem etc And non wealthy person may be suffered from musculoskeletal problem like any releted to the bone diseases tendon,ligaments,dental problm etc
