Q

Compare the extracellular matrix of connective tissue, bone and cartilage

A

Connective tissue - Fibres (rope like) which include both collagen (of which there are 19 types including Reticulin) and elastic fibres (which come in yellow sheets). Ground substance mainly made of proteoglycans and a tissue fluid.
Bone - Hydroxyapatite crystals and collagen fibres (type 1) and water
Cartilage - Water, and then also fibres (collagen type 2) and molecules (GAGs, proteoglycans and glycoproteins)

Elbow | Knee
34
Where do you find a pivot joint ?
C1 (Altas) to C2 (Axis) | joint in the elbow which allows the hand to be supinated
35
Where do you find a saddle joint ?
Base of the thumb
36
Where do you find a condylar joint ?
Joints in the metacarpals i.e. folding joints of the finders and toes
37
Where do you find a plane joint ?
Clavicle to scapula
38
Where do you find a ball and socket joint ?
Hip, shoulder
39
What is it called when blood vessels combine around joints ?
Anastomoses
40
What is Hilton's law ?
the nerve supplying the muscles extending directly across and acting at a given joint not only supplies the muscle, but also innervates the joint and the skin overlying the muscle.
41
(Spelling) Name for a flat tendon ?
Aponeuroses
42
Names of the nerves (Spelling)
Musculocutaneous Sciatic Obturator
43
Names of muscles (Spelling)
``` Biceps brachii Brachialis Coracobrachialis Triceps brachii Brachioradialis ```
44
types of neuron and draw them
Bipolar Psudounipolar Multipolar
45
(Spelling) Cells which produce myelin
Schwann cells | Oligodendrocytes
46
(Spelling) Blood supply to the nerves
Vasa nervorum
47

31
48
How many vertebrate are there ?
33
49
What is used to increase shock absorption ?
Curvature | Intervertebral discs
50
Maximum movement in different sections of the spinal chord
Cervical - Flexion, extension, lateral flexion Thoracic - Rotation Lumbar - Flexion and extension
51
What ligament sits between the atlas and axis ?
Transverse ligament
52
Parts of the spinal chord
1. The conus medullarise is the cone like inferior end of the spinal cord 2. The cauda equina is the bundle of spinal nerve roots resembles horse tail. Spinal nerves that come out of the spinal chord after it ends enter the cauda equina, seeking their IV foramen to exit. Note therefore the spinal nerves are named for the level they exit the foramen not the spinal chord. 3. The filum terminale (internum) is a continuation of pia mater 4. Dural sac: terminates at S2 vertebral level and attached to the tip of the coccyx by filum terminale externum 5. The dural cistern is the dilated dural sac, ends at S2 vertebral level 6. Vertebral canal
53
Different sections of the spinal chord i.e. all the T1-L5 stuff
Sympathetic outflow - T1 - L2 Parasympathetic outflow - 3,7,9,10 and S2-4 Brachial plexus - C5 - T1 Lumbosacral plexus - L1 - S4
54
What is the function of extrinsic muscle groups ?
upper limb movement and respiration
55
What is the function of intrinsic muscle groups ?
maintained posture and control of movement of the vertebral column
56
What are examples of intrinsic muscles and there actions ?
Flexion (bilateral) by muscles anterior to the spine. i.e. Rectus abdominis and psaos Major . Extension (bilateral) by muscles posterior to the spine. I.e. Erector Spinae Rotation (unilateral) by muscles with oblique fibre orientation. i.e. External oblique, internal oblique (opposite side), and erector spinae. Lateral flexion (unilateral). i.e. Erector Spinae, external and internal oblique
57
key muscles of the back (spelling)
``` Erector spinae Psaos major Rectus abdominus Deltoid Trapezius Latissimus dorsi External and internal obliques ```
58
What is at what level i.e. T2 T4 etc
``` Jugular notch - T2 Clavicular notch - T3 Sternal angle - T4/5 Vertebrate behind the heart - T5-8 Vertebrate in front of the heat - T4-7 Cardiac notch T4-6 Carina T4 Sympathetic outflow T1-L2 Parasympathetic outflow S2-4 Brachial plexus C5-T1 Start of the traches C6 Lumbosacral plexus L1-S4 Sympathetic nerves which supply the heart T1-4 Sympathetic nerves which supply the lungs T2-5 ```
59
Innervation of the diaphragm
Sensory fibres in the phrenic nerve innervates the central part of the diaphragm Motor fibres from the phrenic nerve innervates the inferior part of the diaphragm. Intercostal fibres innervate the peripheral part of the diaphragm T7-T12
60
Innervation of the lungs
Phrenic nerve supplies the parietal pleura. Sympathetic T2-5 intercostal nerves. These supply the lungs and the parietal pleura. Vagus nerve which supplies the visceral pleura.
61
Innervation of the heart
Phrenic nerve innervates the fibrous and parietal pericardia. Sympathetic nerves T1-4 supply the heart and the visceral pleura. Vagus nerve supplies the heart and the visceral pericardia.
62
Bones of the hands and feet
Hands - Carpels, metacarpals and phalanges | Feet - Tarpels, metetarpals and phalanges
