Anatomy ch. 9,10, 11pt 1 Flashcards
Fibrous Joints
connected by collagen fibers
Suture, syndesmoses, gomphoses
Suture
between bones of the skull
functionally: synarthroses
syndesmoses
Connected: ligaments
functionally: amphiarthroses
distal articulation of tibia and fibula
gomphosis
peg-in- socket
functionally: synarthroses
tooth in its socket
cartilaginous
have little movement, lack joint cavity
connected: cartilage
Synchondroses, symphyses
synchondroses
Connected: hyaline cartilage to bone
Functionally: synarthroses
epiphyseal plates
symphyses
Connected fibrocartilage disc
Functionally: amphiarthroses
IV disc, pubic symphysis
Synovial
articulates with synovial joint cavity
Functionally: diarthrosis
plane joint
back and forth movement only
ex: carpals, tarsals
hinge joint
convex surface fits into concave
ex: elbow, knee
pivot joint
primarily for rotation
ex: atlas axis, radius
condylar joint
oval shaped bone fits into elliptical depression
ex: between radius and carpals, phalanges and metacarpals
saddle joint
articular surface are both saddle shaped
ex: trapezium and thumb
Ball- and- socket joint
ball fits into cup like
ex: shoulder and hip
Influences on stability
articular surfaces, ligaments, muscle tone
4 functional muscle properties
contractility, excitability, extensibility, elasticity
contractility
myofilaments responsible fot shortening cells
excitability
nerve signals excite cells
extensibility
contraction of a skeletal muscle stretches opposing
elasticity
recoil after being stretched
skeletal muscle
striated, multi-nucleated, voluntary
smooth muscle
not striated, 1 nucleus, involuntary
cardiac
striated, 1 nucleus, involuntary
epimysium
dense regular CT surrounding entire muscle
perimysium
fibrous CT that surrounds each fascicle
endomysium
CT around each muscle fiber
nerve and blood supply
one nerve, one artery, one or more veins
fascicle arrangements in skeletal muscle
circular, convergent, parallel, pennate
circular
fascicles arranged in rings
ex: orbicularis oris, orbicularis oculi
convergent
broad origin, fascicles converge toward tendon of insertion
ex: pectoralis major
parallel
fascicles run parallel to long axis of muscle
strap like: sternocleicomastoid, sartorius
fusiform: bicep brachii
pennate
fascicles short and attach obliquely to tendon that run whole length of muscle “feather”
unipennate: extensor digitorum longus
bipennate: rectus femoris
multipennate: deltoid
fascicle arrangement
tells us about action of muscle
prime mover (agonist)
big responsibility for a certain movement
antagonist
opposes or reverses movement
synergist
helps primer move
fixator
types of synergist that holds bone firmly in place
