what are the "trail markers" that will help you locate muscles and tendons? | bony landmarks |
Since there are different body types and the terrain is never the same, explain how one "body map" could apply to all of them. | even though the topography, shape, and proportion are unique, the body's composition and structures are virtually identical on all individuals. |

Name three ways palpation can be made easier by "working smart". | read information, visualize what you are trying to access, verbalize to your partner what you feel, locate the structure first on yourself, read the text aloud, be patient. |
When outlining the shape or edge of a bone, it is best to roll your fingers ___ rather than ____ its surface. | across, along |
if the structure you are palpating is moving, your hands should _____. | stay still |
When a movement is performed by your partner it is called ____ and when your partner relaxes and allows you to do the movement it is called _____. | active, passive |
In the trail guide to the body, resisted movements are used to distinguish the _____, ____, and _____ of different muscles and tendons | lengths, shapes, edges |
as you improve your palpatory skills, what are three qualities or principles you will want to practice? _____, ______, ______. | move slowly, avoid using excessive pressure, focus your awareness- be present |
