skeleton in dogs

Anatomical cluster that consists of all the skeletal elements (eg., bone, cartilage, and teeth) of the body. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the skeleton is

Anatomical cluster that consists of all the skeletal elements (eg., bone, cartilage, and teeth) of the body. The atlas records it as an anatomical structure at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the skeleton is

It sits within the skeletal system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the skeleton connects to

The atlas records 134 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of skeletal system.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the skeleton. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as set of all bones and set of bones of body. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the skeleton?

It sits within the skeletal system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What does the skeleton connect to?

Part of: skeletal system.

Is the skeleton the same in other species?

This page describes the dog. The human record of the same structure sits beside it on /compare, over one shared model rather than two atlases built separately.
