Rectilinear Motion
43
* movement occurs linearly but in a curved path but not a circular path
Diver off of a board curving down into the pool
Curvilinear Motion
44
* all parts of the object move through the same angle, same direction at the same time. They DO NOT move the same distance.
Think of your arm: wrist, forearm and elbow into flexion – all parts are moving the same speed
Angular Motion/Rotary Motion
45
bending movement of one bone on another causing a decrease in the joint angle
* Usually occurs between the anterior surface of bones
* In wrist often called palmarflexion
* In ankle called dorsiflexion

Compact bone
69
porous and spongy inside portion of the bone called the trabeculae.
Cancellous bone
70
ends of the bone, on either end of the diaphysis and is typically osseous and hard.
* In growing bone, the epiphysis is cartilaginous and is called the epiphyseal plate
* Longitudinal growth occurs here by making new bone
Epiphysis
71
main shaft of the bone, made up mostly of compact bone
* Center is the medullary canal
* Contains bone marrow and is mostly hollow
* Membrane lining is known as the endosteum
* Lines medullary canal and is responsible for bone resorption
Diaphysis
72
supports the epiphysis
Flared portion of the bone
Metaphysis
73
thin fibrous membrane covering all of the bone except articular surfaces
* With the exception of the surfaces that are covered in hyaline cartilage
* Contains nerve and blood vessels that are important in providing nourishment
* Promotes growth in diameter of immature bone and repairs the bone
* Serves as an attachment point for tendons and ligaments
Periosteum

* Gives them a more cube-like shape
* Great deal of articular space
Short bones

3 Types of joints
Fibrous joints
Cartilaginous joints
Synovial joints
83
thin layers of fibrous periosteum located between the two bones
Fibrous joints
84
A Fibrous joints
suture joints , shape allow bones to interlock and fit tightly together
* Skull bones
Synarthrosis
85
a Fibrous joint
ligamentous joints that have a great deal of fibrous tissue (ligaments/interosseous membranes) holding the joint together
Syndesmosis
86
a Fibrous joint
means “bolting together”
* Tooth and the socket of the mandible or maxilla
Gomphosis
87
this joint has either hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage between the two bones
* Also known as amphiarthrodial joints
Cartilaginous joints
88
These joints allow a small amount of motion such as bending/twisting and some compression
* Small amount of motion = increased stability
* More movement = decreased stability
Cartilaginous joints
89
these joints have no direct contact union between ends of the bone instead there is a cavity
-Cavity is filled with synovial fluid located within a thick, sleeve like capsule
* The outside of this capsule is a strong, fibrous material that holds the joint together
* The inside is lined with a synovial membrane that secretes synovial fluid
* Provides shock absorption and is a major source of nutrition for cartilage
Synovial joints
90
Articular surfaces of these joints are very smooth and covered with hyaline cartilage or articular cartilage
* Allow for easy and functional movement
Synovial joints
91
Synovial joints are also known as ...?
diarthrodial joints – allowing free motion
92
Most large joints in the body are what type of joint?
synovial joints
93
linear movement, not angular and occurs secondary to other motions
Nonaxial
94
* Carpal bones in your wrists are very small and have a tight fit to them (intercarpal joints)
* You cannot actively move your carpal bones in the wrist, the movement of these bones occur with wrist flexion, extention, etc…gliding
* The carpal bones will move on each other with these motions
Nonaxial
95
angular motion occurring in one plane around one axis
* Hinge joint
* Pivot joint
Uniaxial

* Metaphalangeal
Condyloid
100

* Thumb or Carpo-metacarpal
* Differs from a condyloid joint due to the arthrokinematics of the joint (to be covered by ch. 4)
Saddle
101
also known as the multiaxial joints – motion occurs actively in all three axes
ball and socket
Triaxial joints

X axis
123
Also known as the midsagittal plane or YZ plane
It is vertical and divides the body into left and right sides
Photographically, this is a side view
Movements in this plane are defined as flexion and extension
Special cases
In the wrist, the sagittal plane is through the 3rd digit

139
The ability of the body to transform stereotyped angular motions of joints into more efficient curvilinear motion of parts
Joints are described by the number of planes for which they move in
Degrees of Freedom
DOF
140
0 degrees of freedom
Nonaxial
141
1 degree of freedom
Uniaxial

This concept becomes important when determining total degrees of freedom for joints
Joints are classified according to the number of planes in which their segments move or the number of primary axes they possess
Joints that move in one plane, posses one axis and have one degree of freedom

151
A combination of several joints or links connected in a way to allow movement is a kinetic chain. Because these links are connected, movement of one link causes motion at others in a predictable way.
Successively, the more distal segments can have higher degrees of freedom that do proximal ones
From the thoracic wall to the finger, there are at least 19 degrees of freedom in planar motions that can be identified
In the lower extremity, the 25 or more DOF between the pelvis and toe not only permit the foot to adjust to an irregular or slanting surface – but also allow the body’s center of gravity to be maintained within the small base of support of the planted foot
