DAY 1 1-30 Flashcards
What is the anatomical position?
Standing upright
Head and eyes directed anterior
Arms adjacent to the sides with palms supinated
Lower limbs close together with feet parallel
How many bones are there in the human body?
206
4 parts of the skeletal system
Bones
Joints
Cartilages
Ligaments
Blood Cell formation is the function of the bone marrow which is located where?
In medullary cavities of bones
Basis of classification of bones
Location, Shape, Nature, Development
Based on location, there are two types of bone
Axial or Appendicular
COmponents of the axial skeletal system
Skull Vertebral column Bony thorax Hyoid RIbs Sternum
Appendicular skeleton components
Limbs Pectoral Girdle Pelvic Girdle Scapula Clavicle
The clavicle is what type of bone according to location?
APPENDICULAR
4 types of bone according to shape
Long
Short
Flat
Irregular
Long bones versus short bones
Long bones have a shaft with heads at both ends
Longer than wide
Ex. Femur, humerus, metacarpals, metatarsals (Phallanges)
SHort bones are cube-shaped, mostly spongy bone
Ex. Carpals, Tarsals, Calcaneous
Characteristics of flat bone
Thin and flattened
Usually curved
Thin layers of compact bone around a layer of spongy bone
Ex. Skull, sternum, ribs
Characteristics of irregular bones
Irregular shape
Ex. Vertebrae hip
Diaphysis versus Epiphysis
Diaphysis is the shaft, compact bone
Epiphysis is the distal or proximal ends, spongy
Covers the external epiphysis and decreases friction at joint surfaces, MADE OF HYALINE
Articulate cartilage
In the medullary the cavity:
Yellow marrow
Red marrow
Yellow is fat, red marrow is blood cell formation
3 types of cartilage
Hyaline
Elastic
Fibrocartilage
3 types of fibers
Collagen
Elastic
Reticular
Two type of bones based on nature
- Compact
2. Spongy
Types of Bones based on development
- Intramembranous/Direct
2. Intracartilaginous/endochondral- indirect
Example of endochondral bone formation
All except Flat bones: skull, mandible, clavicles
Germ layer of origin of bones
- Paraaxial mesoderm: axial bones and muscles
2. Somatic mesoderm/lateral: appendicular skeleton and muscles
Classification of joints based on mobility
Synarthroses: immovable
Amphiarthroses: Slightly movable
Diarthroses: freely movable
Classification of joints based on connecting medium
Fibrous joint - immovable
Ew. Sutures, syndesmoses, gomphosis (dentalalveolar joint)
Cartilaginous joints- slightly moveable
Ex. Pubic symphysis and intervertebral disc
Synovial joint- freely moveable
The immovable joints are also known as?
Synarthroses or fibrous joints
Articulate cartilage covers the ends of the bones and is made up of
Hyaline
Type of carilaginous joint when it is made up of Hyaline
Give an example
Primary cartilaginous joint Costal cartilage (sternum, ribs)
Secondary cartilaginous joint, composition, alternative name, example
Made up of Fibrocartilage
Symphysis
Pubic symphysis, intervertebral disc
Type of synovial joint based on shape
Shoulder/hip
Ball and socket/earth roses
Type of synovial joint based on shape
Acromioclavicular. Sternoclavicular
Plane
Type of joint: elbow, knees, ankle, based on shape
Hinge/GInglymus`
Example of pivot/trochoid joint
Radio ulnar, atlantoaxial
Wrist is what type of joint (shape)
Ellipsoidal
Example of condyloid joints
MCP/Knuckles
Carpometacarpal of thumb is a
Saddle joint
Anterior boundary the of the axial a
Pectoral group
Pectoral is minor and major
Subclavius
Posterior border of the axilla
Sub scapular
Latissimus Dorsi
Teres major
Medial (Costal) Boundary of the axilla
2nd to 6th ribs, and intercostal muscles
Serratus anterior muscle
Lateral (numeral) border of the axilla
Humerus
Biceps short and long heads
Coracobrachialis
Apex of the axilla
Clavicle
Border of the scapula
First rib
Base of the axilla
Subcutaneous fascia
Axillary fascia
Contents of the axilla
Axillary artery and vein
Brachial plexus
THe Axillary fascia covers the contents of the axilla. This fascia is the lateral prolongation of the ________ and extends up to the elbow
Prevertebral fascia
In a brachial nerve plexus block, the position is verified by
Feeling the pulsation of the third part of the Axillary artery
Rotator cuff muscles
Supraspinatus
Infraspinatus
Teres Minor
Subscapularis
