18
Q

sagittal plane

A

divides body into left and right sections

19
Q

transverse plane

A

divides body horizontally into superior and inferior parts

20
Q

frontal plane

A

divides body into anterior and posterior parts

21
Q

functions of the skeletal system

A

blood cell production
mineral storage
protection of organs
supports the entire body

22
Q

bone types

A

long bones
short bones
flat/tabular bones
sesamoid bones
irregular bones

23
Q

bone tissue types

A

cortical bone/compact
cancellous bone / spongy/ trabecular

24
Q

cortical bone

A

outer shell
yellow bone marrow

25
Q

trabecular bone

A

red bone marrow
much less dense
middle of long bones

26
Q

bone is a ….

A

two phase composite material
anisotropic, different mechanical properties when loaded along different axes
viscoelastic, response varies with the rate at which bone is loaded

27
Q

3 types of muscle

A

skeletal (voluntary)
smooth / visceral muscle (involuntary)
cardiac muscle (involuntary)

28
Q

muscle composition breakdown

A

sacromere - myofibril - muscle fiber - fascicle - muscle bundle - muscle

29
Q

joint functional classification

A

synarthrosis - no movement
amphiarthroses - slightly moveable
diarthroses - freely moveable

30
Q

joint structural classification

A

fibrous (skull)
cartilaginous (ribs)
synovial (knee)

31
Q

synovial joint components

A

articular cartilae
joint cavity
articular capsule
synovial fluid
rich nerve and blood vessel supply

32
Q

Three possible types of reinforcing
ligaments

A

Capsular, extracapsular and intracapsular

33
Q

stabilizing factors at synovial joints

A

muscle tone
ligament # and location
shapes of articular surfaces

34
Q

ROM of synovial joints

A

nonaxial - slipping movements only
uniaxial - movement in 1 plane
biaxial - movement in 2 planes
multiaxial - movement in or around all three planes

35
Q

types of joints

A

hinge
pivot
condylar
saddle
ball and socket

36
Q

foot movements

A

dorsiflexion - upward movement
plantar flexion - downward movement
inversion - turn sole medially
eversion - turn sole latterally

37
Q

ulna movement

A

supination - turning hand backward (palm up)
pronation - turning hand forward palm down

38
Q

angular movement

A

adduction - toward body
abduction - movement away from body
