8
Q
how is movement created in a joint
A
results from the contraction or relaxation of the muscles that are attached to the bones on either side.
9

function of cartilage
A
smooth white tissue that covers the ends of bones where they come together to form joints

types of bones
A
long - femur, humerus

flat bone - cranium, scapula
irregular bone - vertebrae
sesamoid bones - patella
24
Q
uni-axil, bi-axil and tri-axil joints
A
uni-axil - hinge, pivot
bi-axil - condyloid, gliding, saddle
tri-axil- ball and socket
25
sensor motor neurons
1. Brain sends signal
2. Electrical impulse travels along spinal cord to motor neuron (nerve)
3. Impulse travels along chain of neurons (neural chain)
4. Message arrives at muscle fibres
5. Muscle fibres are stimulated to contract
26
agonist
muscle creating movement
27
antagonist
muscle relaxing
28
stabiliser
muscle that holds parts in place and prevent you from being damaged while movers are moving you
29
movers
big muscles that move body parts
30
muscle functions
movement - contract and relax, muscles work in pairs this is called reciprocal inhibition.
- posture
- production of body heat
31
muscle types
smooth - found in blood vessels and intestinal walls, internal and involuntary.
cardiac - only found in wall of the heart. involuntary
skeletal - external, voluntary.
32
uni, bi and multi pennate
UNIPENNATE - fibres on one side of a tendon
BIPENNATE - fibres on both side of a tendon
MULTIPENNATE - fibres branch out from a number of tendons
33
Microscopic muscle contraction
-myofibrils are made up of tiny protein structures called filaments
-one is a thick filament called MYOSIN (WHICH HAS CROSS BRIDGES)
-two is a thin filament called ACTIN
- H ZONE can shorten or even disappear
-The ACTIN filaments slide over the MYOSIN filaments to create movement.
34
microscopic contraction steps
1. Electrical impulse arrives at the relaxed muscle via the CNS
2. Calcium is released which bonds the cross bridges to the ACTIN
3. Cross bridges begin to pull the ACTIN filaments towards middle
4. Muscle contracts and shortens
35
tendons
connects muscle to bone
36
types of muscle contractions
1. ISOINERTIAL - load or resistance against the muscle is constant throughout the motion,
2. CONCENTRIC – the muscle length decreases
3. ECCENTRIC – the muscle length increases.
4. ISOMETRIC – the muscle length remains unchanged (gripping a racquet handle)
5. ISOKINETIC – the resistance changes according to joint angle (requires special machines).
37
sports injuries - sprain
sprain (ligament)
classification - acute, indirect, soft tissue
causes - excessive movement forcing joint past range
symptoms - immediate pain, swelling, restricted movement
rehab - muscle conditioning, strapping
38
sports injuries - dislocation
shoulder dislocation -
classification - direct, acute
causes - twist, fall, direct blow
symptoms - swollen, physically out of place
rehab - Immobilise the injured part, Apply RICER, have no unnecessary movement, Seek medical assistance
39
sports injuries - concussion
concussion
classification - direct
causes - bump to the head
symptoms - nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, headache
rehab - rest, slowly increase physical activity
40
sports injuries - strains
strain (hamstring) -
classification - indirect
causes - over stretching, sudden change in direction
symptoms - muscle pain, spasm, sore to touch
rehab - ricer
- ricer (decreasing blood flow to the injury)
41
prevention of injuries
conditioning (flexibility and strength), equipment maintenance, nutrition, warm up and cool down
42
fusiform muscles
long and thin. Contract rapidly, low force. Fibres run length of muscle, same direction as tendon. Eg: bicep
43
How do joints create movement
results from contraction or relaxation of the muscles that are attached to the bones on either side of the joint
44
shoulder vs hip
Similar in that both ball and socket. Different in that shoulder is more moveable and flexible. Hip is deeper as it is weight-bearing.
45
reciprocal inhabition
muscles work in pairs. Agonist contracts and antagonist must relax
46
sarcomere
basic contracting unit of muscle cell consists of actin and myosin filaments
47
flexion and extension
flexion - angle decreases at a joint
extension - angle increases at a joint
48
dorsic and plantar flexion
dorsic flexion - foot moves towards shin
plantar flexion - foot moves away from shin
49
abduction and adduction
abduction - moves away from midline
adduction - moves towards midline
50
supination and pronation
supination - twisting (palm up)
pronation - twisting (palm down)
51
eversion and inversion
eversion - sole outward
inversion - sole inward
52
elevation and depression
elevation - shoulder girdle moves towards head
depression - shoulder girdle moves away from head
53
rotation and circumduction
rotation - movement around central axis
circumduction - body moves in a cone shape
54
fast and slow twitch
FAST TWITCH - contract rapidly, contract with greater force, have a large fibre diameter.
SLOW TWITCH - contract slowly with less force, have an increased capacity to use oxygen, have the capacity to contract for longer time periods.
