19
Q

The Rib Cage

A

True Ribs
-> Upper 7 pairs

False Ribs
-> Next 3 pairs

Floating Ribs
-> Bottome 2 pairs

20
Q

Bone Fractures?

A

A fracture is defined as a partial or complete break in the continuity of a bone.

21
Q

Types of Fractures

A
  • Impacted
  • Complete
  • Incomplete
  • Dentate
  • Comminuted
  • Avulsion
  • Linear
  • Transverse
  • Oblique
  • Spiral
  • Hairline
22
Q

Fracture Healing?

A

1) Fracture tears blood vessels and initiates repair.
2) A fracture hematoma (blood clot) occurs after fracture
3) Blood clot replaced by a callus
4) Remodelling completes repair

23
Q

Joints

A

Point of contact between bones

24
Q

Classification of Joints

A

Fibrous Joints
-> Immovable

Cartilaginous
-> Slightly movable

Synovial Joints
-> Two bones separated by a cavity

25
Synovial Joints
- Joint capsule - Synovial membrane - Articular cartilage - Joint cavity - Menisci - Ligaments - Bursae
26
Synovial Joint Motions
``` Flexion -> Forearm towards arm Extension -> Forearm away from the arm Abduction ->Arms sideways,away from body Adduction ->Arms back to body Rotation -> Head to answer "no" ```
27
Skeletal Muscle Structure
Attachment of muscles Origin - The point of attachment that does not move when muscle contracts Insertion - The point of attachment that moves when muscle contracts
28
Muscle Actions
Prime movers - Muscles or group of muscles that directly perform a specific movement Antagonists - Muscles that when contracting, directly oppose the prime movers Synergists -Muscles that contract at the same time as the prime movers.
29
Naming Muscles
- Location - Function - Shape - Direction of fibers - Points of attachment
30
General Functions of Muscular System
- Movement of the body as a whole or of it's parts - Heat Production - Maintaining posture
31
3 Front Major Skeletal Muscles
Frontalis -Wrinkles forehead and lifts eyebrows Rectus Abdominus -Flexes Spine Masseter -Closes jaw
32
3 Rear Major Skeletal Muscles
Occipitalis -Moves scalp backwards Gluteus Maximus -Extends thighs Deltoids -Abducts and raises arms at shoulder joints
33
Skeletal Muscle Fiber
Each fiber is a single cell
34
Myofilaments
Myosin ->Thick filaments Actin ->Thin filaments
35
Primary Energy
ATP
36
Secondary Energy
CP
37
Muscle Contraction (Actin & Myosin Function)
1) Calcium Activates Actin 2) Coupled with ATP, the myosin head binds, bends, pulls and releases 3) Repeats
38
Muscles
Muscles are composed of bundles of muscle fibers that are held together by fibrous connective tissue
39
Motor Units
A motor unit is a motor neuron plus the muscle fibers to which it attaches
40
Recruitment (Motor units)
More motor units are activated as the intensity of stimulus increases.
