Q

Name the components of embalming solution.

A

phenol

alcohol

glycerine

formaldehyde (less than 5%)

2
Q

What is the role of the cutaneous branches?

A

cutaneous branches provide sensory innervation to the skin of the anteror and lateral body wall

3
Q

What are the attachments of the pectoralis major, and what is its function?

A

it origniates on the sternum and clavicle and inserts on the neck of the humerus

it adducts and medially rotates the arm at the shoulder joint

4
Q

body wall

A

portion of the body that forms the external body surface and encloses the body cavity

5
Q

layers of the superficial body wall

A

epidermis of the skin (epithelium)

dermis of the skin (dense irregular C.T.)

superficial fascia (loose C.T. with fat)

6
Q

layers of the deep body wall

A

deep (investing fascia (epimysium)

skeletal muscle and bone

parietal layer of celom lining (pleura/peritonneum - simple squamous epithelium)

7
Q

tissues that make up the mammary gland

A

glandular tissue, fat, and C.T.

8
Q

rectus abdominus

A

runs lingitudinally along the middle of the body, best developed in the abdomen

9
Q

aponeuroses

A

fibers of which interdigitate in the midline, forming the linea alba

10
Q

functions of the core muscles

A

core stability

trunk mobility

protect the viscera

raise intra-abdominal pressure

depress the ribcage during forced expiration

11
Q

How many rami and cutaneous branches does a typical spinal neve have?

A

two rami and three cutaneous branches

12
Q

incisional hernia

A

occurs when the bowel protrudes through a defect or weakness resulting from a surgical incision, it appears as a bulge near a surgical scar on the abdomen

13
Q

diastasis recti

A

occurs when the bowel protrudes thruogh a separation between the two rectus abdominis muscles, appears as a midline ridge

14
Q

inguinal canal

A

a slit-like passage through the inferior abdominal wall that begins at the deep inguinal ring and ends at the superficial inguinal ring

15
Q

primary body cavities

A

thoracic cavity and abdominopelvic cavity

16
Q

celom derivative cavities

A

pleural cavity, pericardial cavity, and peritoneal cavity

17
Q

camper’s fascia

A

a loose connective tissue with a high fat content; in histology it is called the hypodermis

18
Q

scarpa’s fascia

A

a membranous layer of fascia deep to the superficial fascia that is thickest in the lower abdomen

19
Q

four groups of muscle in the body wall

A

rectus series

external, internal, and transverse concentric layers

20
Q

function of the rectus abdominus

A

flexes the trunk

21
Q

function of the abdominal oblique

A

muscles on both sides contract to flex the trunk; laterally bend and flex the trunk or rotate it to the opposite side of the contracting muscle

22
Q

function of the internal abdominal oblique

A

both sides together flex the trunk, one side laterally bends bends the trunk or rotates it to the same side

23
Q

function of the transverse abdominis

A

compresses the abdominal viscera

24
Q

function of the external intercostal

A

elevates ribs in forced inspiration and maintain rigidity of the intercostal space

25
Q

function of the internal intercostal

A

abdominal oblique; functions to depress ribs in forced expiration and maintain rigidity of intercostal space

26
Q

innervation of the body wall

A

vetral rami of the spinal nerves
