what is progressive strain of a material when exposed to a constant load over time called?
creep
Shortest distance between the AOR and the force is called
moment arm
2 or more muscles producing forces in different linear directions but the same rotary direction are called
force couple
lever in which AOR is in the middle (head and neck muscles)
first class lever
AOR at one end of a bone. Internal force has greater leverage then external force (gastroc)
second class lever
AOR at one end of the bone. External force greater leverage than internal force (elbow flexors)
third class lever
most common type of lever in the body is
third class lever
what class levers have a mechanical advantage greater than 1
second class levers
Sutures of skull, distal tib-fib joint, interosseous membranes are all examples of this type of joint (little movement and transmits forces)
synarthrosis
Intervertebral disc, pubic symphysis, manubriosternal joint are all examples of this type of joint
amphiarthrosis
7 characteristics of synovial joints
- Synovial fluid
- Articular cartilage
- Articular capsule
- Synovial membrane
- Capsular ligaments
- Blood vessels
- Sensory nerves
joint that has fluid filled joint cavity between bones is what type of joint
synovial
atlanto axial joint is what type of joint
pivot
intercarpal joint is what type of joint
plane
radiocarpal is what type of joint
ellipsoidal
what two motions do ellipsoidal joints allow
sagital plane and frontal plane
tibiofemoral and MCP joints are what kind of joints
condyloid
what motions do condyloid joints permit
either flex/ext and AB/AD or flex/ext and ER/IR
what type of collagen is found in hyaline cartilage
type 2 collegen
what type of cartilage is avascular and aneural
articular cartilage (hyaline)
cartilage that is mostly aneural and receives blood supply mostly around periphery is what type of cartilage
fibrocartilage
what tissue has the best capacity for repair and remodelling
bone
what are the 3 layers of fascia surrounding the muscle/fascicle/and fiber
epimysium
perimysium
endomysium
amount of force a muscle is able to generate is based off of 2 factors
pennation angle and cross sectional area
