radius and ulna (forearm)

QuestionAnswer
the proximal ends of the radius and ulna form a type of synovial joint called a _________ joint pivot
the only type of movement possible at a pivot joint it _________ rotation
the feature on the proximal end of the ulna that forms that forms the "elbow" is the _______ _________ olecranon process
when naming the bones of the digits, a bone that articulates with a metacarpal is properly called a __________ _________ proximal phalanx
when classifying bones on shape, all the bones of the wrist are classified as ______ bones short
the muscle on the lateral side of the anterior portion of the forearm that acts to abduct the hand at the wrist is the __________ __________ __________ flexor carpi radialis
the ______ process on the proximal end of the ulna fits into a cavity called the __________ __________ on the anterior surface of the humerus coranoid; coranoid fossa
the trapezium and first metacarpal form a type of synovial joint called a _______ joint saddle
movement in all planes is possible at a saddle joint but ________ is not possible rotation
thin projections at the distal ends of the radius (lateral surface) and ulna (medial surface) are called the ___________ _________ styloid process
the muscle of the upper arm that acts to extend the arm at the elbow is the ______ ________ triceps brachii
the joint between the humerus and ulna is and example of a true ________ joint hinge
when straightening the hinge joint of the elbow, the ______ _______ of the ulna tucks into the _______ _________of the humerus olecranon process; olecranon fossa
the head of the radius is located on the _______ end of the bone, while the head of the ulna is located on the _______ end of the bone proximal; distal
turning the palm of the hand up is called _________ while turning the plam of the hand down is called _________ supination;pronation
the movements of pronation and supination are made possible by the pivot joint formed between the ___________ of the of the radius and the ______ ______ of the ulna (proximal) head; radial notch
when classifying bones based on shape, all the bones of the arm as well as all the bones of the hand are classified as _______ bones long
the muscle of the upper arm that flexes the arm at the elbow when the palm of the hand is pronated is the _________ brachialis
the raised area just distal to the head of the radius is the ______ _______ radial tuburosity
bending a joint is called _______ while straightening a joint is called __________ flexion; extension
straightening a joint beyond its normal anatomical position is called _________ hyperextension
the muscle on the medial side of the anterior portion of the forearm that acts to adduct the hand at the wrist is the __________ __________ _________ flexor carpi ulnaris
the joints between most carpals and metacarpals as well as the joints between all metacarpals and phalanges are a type of synovial joint called a ___________ joint condylar
the muscle of the upper arm that flexes the arm at the elbow when the palm of the hand is supinated is the ___________ _________ biceps brachii
projections situated above the condyles on the humerus, called the medial and lateral _________, serve as attachment points for the flexor carpi and extensor carpi muscles epicondyles
the muscle on the medial side of the posterior portion of the forearm that acts to adduct the hand at the wrist is the ___________ ________ __________ extensor carpi ulnaris
the joints between adjacent carpals are all __________ joints plane
anatomically plane joints are _________ joints so their degree of movement is classified as ______________ synovial; diarthrotic
the muscle of the arm that inserts proximal to the styloid process of the radius and acts to flex the arm at the elbow is the ___________ brachioradialis
the muscle group on the lateral side of the posterior of the forearm that acts to abduct the hand at the wrist is the __________ __________ ___________ extensor carpi radialis (group)
the bone in the tip of your index finger is properly called the ________ _________ of the second digit distal phalanx

ORIGIN- lateral epicondyle of humerus, ulna INSERTION- proximal end of fifth metacarpal ACTION- extention, adducts hand at wrist extensor carpi ulnaris
ORIGIN- medial epicondyle of humerus INSERTION- proximal end of metacarpals 1-3 ACTION- flexes, abducts hand at wrist flexor carpi radialis
ORIGIN- medial epicondyle of humerus, olecranon process of ulna INSERTION- 5th metacarpal, carpals ACTION- flexes, adducts hand at wrist flexor carpi ulnaris
ORIGIN- tubercle below glenoid fossa, posterior surface humerus INSERTION- olecranon process of ulna ACTION- extends arm at elbow triceps brachii
