Musculoskeletal Test Flashcards
(36 cards)
Connect bone to bone
ligaments
connect bone to muscle
tendons
Functions of the skeletal system
protects organs and tissues, bones store excess calcium, move - stabilize
cancellous
spongy bone tissue inside of bone
cortical
compact bone tissue in the diaphysis part
osteocytes
bone cell
osteoblasts
build up bone
osteoclasts
break down bone
axial skeleton
head, ribs, pelvis, vertebrae
appendicular skeleton
arms and legs
skeletal muscle
striated - moves voluntarily
smooth muscle
GI muscles - involuntary - peristalsis
cardiac
little striated - involuntary
fasciae
membrane surrounds muscle
periosteum
outer layer of bone
antagonist muscles
work opposite each other - biceps brachii - triceps brachii
synergistic muscles
work together- rectus abdominis - obliques
synarthrodial
immovable joints - sutures
amphiarthrodial
slightly moveable - vertebrae, ribs
diarthrodial
moveable joints - ball and socket, hinge, gliding, pivot
insertion
place that causes movement
origin
stablized
bursae
bubble of synovial fluid protecting bone from tendon
normal calcium
