53
Q

Paranasal sinuses

-make the bones lighter
-all sinuses lead continuously to nasal cavity
** the nasal bones do not have sinuses***

54
Q

True ribs

A
  • number 1-7 of the ribs are considered true ribs because they have their own cartilage to connect to the sternum
55
Q

False ribs

A
  • number 8-12 but they can be false in two different ways
56
Q

False ribs 8-10

A

-these ribs borrow the cartilage from ribs 1-7 and indirectly connect to the sternum

57
Q

False ribs 11-12

A

-these are floating ribs and do not attach to the sternum but they do protect the kidney

58
Q

What makes up the shoulder girdle

A
  • scapula and clavical
59
Q

What does the scapula not articulate to

A

-vertebral column

60
Q

What does the clavicle articulate to

A

-sternum

61
Q

What regions are the coxal bone divided into

A
  1. ilium (hip)
  2. pubic
  3. ischium (butt)
    * in babies these are bones that have not fused into the coxal bone that is found in adults
    * in adults these bones are no longer categorized as bones and are called regions
    * old word used was oxcoxal
62
Q

Where does the coxal join to?

A

-the sacrum

63
Q

Where does the fibula not articulate to

A

-femur
* the fibia is a stabilizer you can live without one

64
Q

Name two of the seven tarsals

A
  • calcaneus
  • talus
65
Q

Tibia is to the ______ as the fibia is to the ______

A

ulna, radius

66
Q

Phalanges

A

-14 per hand
-3 in each finger (3*4= 12)
- the thumb has 2

67
Q

articulation

A

joint, place where one bone joins to another

68
Q

2 ways to classify a joint

A
  1. How much movement
  2. Binding material
69
Q

Synarthroses

A

no movement

70
Q

amphiarthroses

A

a little movement

71
Q

diarthroses

A

freely moving

72
Q

Fibrous binding material for joints can be broken down into?

A
  1. Suture
  2. syndesmoses
  3. gomphoses
    * all held by DFCT
    * has no joint space
73
Q

Suture (marking)

A

bone to bone with DFCT (ossification)
-sutures in the beginning are amphiarthroses (in babies) but as they get finer they become synarthroses

74
Q

Syndesmoses

A

-bone to bone with joint, wider, longer than suture
-joint held together by a ligament

75
Q

gomphoses

A

-peg in socket fibrous joint
-teeth in sockets

76
Q

synostoses (Bony joint)

A

where suture lines disappear (bone to bone)

77
Q

Type of binding material

A
  1. fibrous
  2. bony joint
  3. cartilaginous
78
Q

cartilanginous binding material for joints can be broken down into?

A
  1. synchondroses
  2. symphyses
    * no joint space
    * cartilage binding material
79
Q

synchondroses

A

-bar or plate of hyaline cartilage unites the bones
- virtually all synchondroses are synarthrotic
(Ex: ribs to sternum)
*first rib is synarthrotic

80
Q

symphyses

A

-bones united by fibrocartilage
-these are amphiarthrotic
ex: intervertebral joints and pubic symphysis of pelvis

81

-attach with functionality always diarthrotic for synovial
-between all carpals
-has joint space
-periosteum wraps around the whole surface looks like a bump from the outside

-also called joint capsule, covers everything significant
-external layer made of DFCT (irregular)
-inner layer is synovial membrane

83
Q

synovial membrane

A

-inner layer of the joint capsule
-inside everywhere except where hyaline cartilage is

84
Q

Synovial fluid

A
