Anatomical Principles and Skull Flashcards
Difference between Ball and Socket Joint and Condyloid Joint
Condyloid - only allows for forward/backward and side-to-side movement. (Flexion/extension, abduction/adduction)
Ball and Socket Joint - allows for all movement and rotation. Mobility joint
Origin vs. insertion of muscles
Proximal end of muscle, usually stays still, not a lot of movement VS. Distal end of muscle that has the most movement
Proximal vs. Medial
Closest to the trunk of the body, near the origin
VS
Part of body closest to the midline of the body
What type of structural joint type are sutures of the skull?
Fibrous and synarthrosis (no movement)
Synovial Joints and their movements and examples (ones I don’t know)
Planar: gliding movement - carpal and tarsal bones
Condyloid: concave surface articulating with a convex surface flexion/extension abduction/adduction - radiocarpal joint
Ball and Socket: all kinds of movement - glenohumeral
Pivot joint: rounded surface rotating within a bony ring - proximal radioulnar joint
Different names for Sagittal Plane
Midsagittal and Median - down the center line of body
Parasagittal - Not directly down the middle line
Longitudinal Plane
2 names for Frontal Plane
Frontal and Coronal Plane
3 names for Transverse Plane
Transverse, horizontal, and axial Plane
Sagittal Plane and Frontal Axis Movement Examples
Lunges, walking, squatting, biceps curl
Movements in the frontal plane and sagittal axis
Jumping Jacks, Cartwheel, Lateral Raises, Shoulder Press
6 Functions of the Skeletal System
Support, Protection, Movement, Storage and Release of minerals, Hemopoiesis (production of blood cells by red bone marrow), Storage of triglycerides (yellow bone marrow)
Bone Cell Types
Osteogenic Cell: stem cell that develops into an osteoblast
Osteocyte: maintains bone tissue
Osteoblast: forms bone tissue
Osteoclast: functions in resorption, the destruction of bone matrix
Epiphysis vs Diaphysis
Wider section at each end of long bone, filled with spongy bone, round in shape. VS Shaft of long bone which runs between the epiphysis, cylindrical in shape
Hyaline Cartilage
Provides smooth surface for gliding action at joints
Fibrocartilage purpose
Resists strong forces of compression and tension
Mechanical Advantage
Efficiency of a lever to lift a load. Ratio between length of lever arm for the applied force to the lever arm of the resistance.
Kinetic Advantage
Ability of a lever system to create fast motion or a large range of motion quickly. Inverse of MA.
What is the functional grouping of elbow flexion? Groupings and their examples of muscles
Agonist - Biceps brachii
Antagonist - Triceps Brachii
Accessory (synergist) - brachialis, brachioradialis
Fixator (synergist) - Rhomboid
What are the rhomboids? And where are they located in reference to other muscles?
Stabilize the scapula where the bis and tris have attachments. Located on upper back deep to the trapezius muscle (helps with posture). Pull the shoulder blades together.
Endfeel: Bone to bone
Contact between two bones stops the movement. Sensation is hard stop. Ex. Coronoid process hitting the coronoid fossa of the humerus in elbow extension
