Question 1

Name 3 flat bones

Answer 1

Sternum, ribs, Cranium, pelvis

Question 2

Name 4 long bones

Answer 2

Femur, humerus, radius, Tibia, phalanges

Question 3

What is the structure of a ligament?

Answer 3

Structure: tough, slightly elastic

Question 4

What is the Structure of synovial fluid?

Answer 4

Structure: lubricating liquid within the joint

Question 5

What is the structure of cartilage?

Answer 5

Structure: smooth tissue which covers the surface of bones

Question 6

What is the structure of the Joint capsule?

Answer 6

Structure: fibrous

Question 7

What is the structure of the bursa?

Answer 7

Structure: fluid filled sac, found where tendons rub over bones

Friction: reduces friction between tendons and bones

Question 8

What is a joint?

Answer 8

And area of the body where two of more bones articulate to create human movement

Question 9

What is the Sagittal plane of movement?

Answer 9

It lies vertically, and divides the body into left and right part from the mid line (flexion and extension)

Question 10

What is the frontal plane of movement?

Answer 10

It lies vertically, and divides the body into front and back (abduction and addiction)

Question 11

What is the transverse plane of movement?

Answer 11

It lies horizontally and divides the body into upper and Lower parts (horizontal flexion and horizontal extension)

Question 12

Give 3 examples of a hinge joint:

Answer 12

Elbow, knee, ankle

Question 13

Give an example of a pivot joint:

Answer 13

The radio-ulna joint

Question 14

Name a gliding joint

Answer 14

The spine

Question 15

Name 2 ball and socket joints

Answer 15

Hip and shoulder

Question 16

Name a Condyloid joint

Answer 16

Wrist joint

Question 17

What is the function of flat bones (e.g. Ribs):

Answer 17

To protect internal organs

Question 18

What are the functions of long bones (e.g. Femur):

Answer 18

They act as a lever and act as sites for blood cell production

Question 19

What is the function of a ligament

Answer 19

Function: connects bone to bone, and stabilises the joint during movement

Question 20

What is the function synovial fluid?

Answer 20

Function: Reduces friction, nourishes the cartilage

Question 21

What is the function of cartilage?

Answer 21

Function: absorbs the shock and allows friction free movement

Question 22

What is the function of the Joint capsule?

Answer 22

Function: strengthens the joint secreting synovial fluid

Question 23

What is the function of the bursa?

Answer 23

Friction: reduces friction between tendons and bones

Question 24

Give an example of a movement on the sagittal plane

Answer 24

A bicep curl (flexing extension movement)

Question 25

Give an example of a movement on the frontal plane

Answer 25

Lateral raises (abduction and adduction)

Question 26

Give an example of a movement on the transverse plane

Answer 26

Discussing the backward swing the humerus moves further from the midline parallel to the floor as horizontal extension occurs at the shoulder joint (Horizontal flexion and horizontal extension)
