A

Near the surface

20
Q

A

Towards the inside

21
Q

Proximal

A

Closer to the origin of the body

22
Q

Distal

A

Farther away from the origin of the body

23
Q

Movement’s of the body

A

Flexion extension hyperextension abduction adduction rotation medial lateral left and right

24
Q

Flexion and extension

A

Bending a joint
Straightening a joint

25
Q

Abduction adduction

A

Abduction moving away from centre
Adduction moving towards the centre

26
Q

Rotation

A

Twisting away or towards the midline

27
Q

What is a lever

A

A rigid bar that turns about and axis of rotation or fulcrum, in the body the bones are the lever the joint is the axes and the muscles apply the force

28
Q

Class one lever

A

Axis/fulcrum is between the force and resistance, a dolly lifting a box, resistance fulcrum force

29
Q

Class two lever

A

Resistance is between the axis and the force, fulcrum resistance force, a wheel barrow

30
Q

Class three lever

A

Force is between axis and resistance, resistance force fulcrum, fishing

31
Q

Type of action of class one lever

A

Elbow extension, triceps are the force olecrannon fulcrum and forearm resistance

32
Q

Action of class two lever

A

Plantar flexion, ball of foot is axis calves provide force body weight is the resistance

33
Q

Action of class three lever

A

Bicep flexion, elbow is the axis biceps is force hand is the resistance

34
Q

Centric force

A

Forces directed through the centre of mass of an object , centric forces cause translation, linear movement

35
Q

Eccentric forces

A

Force directed at a distance from the centre of mass, cause translation and rotation

36
Q

Force couples

A

Paired eccentric force of equal magnitude and opposite direction, at equal distances on opposite sides causing pure rotation

37
Q

What is torque

A

Rotational effect of an eccentric force

38
Q

What is arthrokinematics

A

The motion that occurs between the articular surfaces of joints, concave convex relationship

39
Q

Three fundamental arthrokinematics

A

Roll slide and spin
