Question | Answer |
---|---|
Flextion | Bending or decreasin the angle of a joint |
extension | straighting or increasing the angle of a joint |
abduction | The movement of the body part away from the middle of the body |
adduction | The movement of the body part towards the middle of the body |
pronation | rotation of the hand resulting in a palm down position |
supination | Rotation of the hand resulting in a palm up position |
planterflextion | The extension movement of the top of the feet away from the tibia |
dorsiflextion | The 'flexion' movement of the top of the feet towards the tibia |
inversion | The rotation of the foot with the side turned inward |
eversion | The rotation of the foot with the sole turned inward |
5 main functions of the skeleton | |
Structure | produces places for muscle attachment |
protection | protect vital organs |
Movement | Allows for movement for activity |
Blood-cell production | create a in-bone morrow |
storage | Of calcium and minerals for normal bodily functions |
Bones | |
Long bones | Femur ,humerus,tibia |
Short bones | Carpals,tarsals |
Flat bones | Scapulae, sternum, ribs |
Irregular bones | Vertabrae,sacrum |
sesamoid bone | patella |
What is a joint | joints are where 2 or more bones meet |
Types of joints | |
Fibrous | immovable |
cartilaginous | slightly movable |
Synovial | Freely movable |
Synovial joint examples | |
Ball and socket | The ball of one bone fits into the cup of the other.This allows for a larger range of movement E.g shoulder/hip joints |
Hinge joint | This allows for flection and extension to occur E.g Elbow joint |
condyloid | Similar to ball and socket except it is incapable of of rotating E.g Radoiocarpal joint and Metacarpo-phalangeal joint |
saddle joint | Capable of movement but rotation is limited. E.g thumb(radius) |
Glidding joint | Flat bone surfaces for gliding movement. E.g Inter-carpal and inter-tarsal |
Definitions to know | |
Hyaline cartilage | A shiny white substance covering the end of the bones, it helps grease the surface of the joint to allow for smooth friction and free movement |
Synovial fluid | This is secreted by the synovial membrane and helps to oil the join cavity |
Ligaments | These join bones, they act as strong ruller bones and helps prevent dislocation but stretch to allow the bones to move. |
superior | Higher than- e.g nose is superior to the phalanges |
inferior | Lower than-eg.femur is inferior to the sternum |
Anterior | Forward - E.g ribs are Anterior to the scapular |
Posterior | Back -E.g spine is posterior to ribs |
Medial | Middle /towards the middle -e.g the big toe is medial to the little toe |
Lateral | Away from middle E.g The ears are lateral to the eyes |
Vertebral column | |
Cervical vertebrae | C1,C2,C3,C4,C5,C6,C7 (7) |
Thoracic vertebrae | T1-T12 (12) |
Lumbar vertebrae | L1,L2,L3,L4,L5 (5) |
Sacrum | 5 fused vertebrae (5) |
Coccyx | 4 fused vertebrae (4) |
How many pairs of ribs are there | 12 |
How many are attached ti your sternum | 10 with 2 false ribs |
