Answer 18

between ulna and proximal row of carpals

Question 19

What is the radiocarpal joint?

Answer 19

consists of distal end of radius and the radioulnar disk proximally and the scaphoid, lunate and triquetrum

Question 20

What is closed pack position?

Answer 20

extension tension within palmar radiocarpal log and all muscles that cross on the palmar side of the wrist causes stability to occur
Ex: push up, crawling

Answer 22

have both their proximal and distal attachment on carpal bones

Question 23

What is the transverse carpal ligament?

Answer 23

causes an arch over the carpals and making the carpal tunnel for median nerve and tendons

Answer 24

covers tendon and provides protection
