leg
tibial artery dives into the

Answer 19

anterior and posterior

Question 20

leg
anterior tibial:

Answer 20

anterior leg, continues to dorsalis pedis artery, muscles on dorsum

Question 21

leg
posterior tibial:

Answer 21

posterior leg, continues to lateral and medial plantar arteries

Question 22

deep veins of lower limbs

Answer 22

the same as arteries

Question 23

superficial veins of lower limb

Answer 23

-great saphenous vein: pre-axial comp. medial side of ankle.ascends anterior to medial malleolus and drains into the femoral artery.
-small saphenous vein: post axial comp, posterior midline. ascends posterior to lateral malleolus and drains into popliteal artery

Question 24

superficial vein
great saphenous vein

Answer 24

ascends anterior to medial malleolus and drains into the femoral vein

Question 25

superficial vein small saphenous vein

Answer 25

ascends posterior to the lateral malleolus and empties into the popliteal vain

Question 26

sciatica

Answer 26

lower back pain caused by a herniated dick in the lower back that pinches nerve roots, prior to sciatic nerve proper being formed

Question 27

hip joint

Answer 27

ball and socket multi axial

Question 28

strong ligaments in the hip joint

Answer 28

iliofemoral pubofemoral ischiofermoral

Question 29

medial circumflex artery

Answer 29

supplies most of the blood to the head and neck of the femur

Question 30

knee joint

Answer 30

bicondylar hinge joint flexion, extension, medial, and lateral rotation composed: femur, tibia, and patella

Question 31

what stabilizes the knee joint

Answer 31

patellar ligament: flex and extend fibular and collateral ligaments: FCL LCC cruciate ligament: anterior and posterior ACL PCL

Question 32

menisci of knee joint

Answer 32

medial and lateral crescent plates of fibrocartilage

Question 33

anterior cruciate ligament:

Answer 33

ACL prevents posterior displacement of the femur on the tibia and hyperextension of the knee joint

Question 34

posterior cruciate ligament

Answer 34

PCL prevents anterior displacement of the femur on the tibia or posterior displacement of the tibia on the femur, prevents hyperflexion of knee joint

Question 35

pulse point of femoral artery

Answer 35

press inferiorly to inguinal ligament and at the midpoint between the pubic symphysis and anterior superior iliac spine

Question 36

pulse point of posterior tibial artery

Answer 36

palpate between the posterior surface of medial malleous and medial border of the calcaneal tendon

Question 37

pulse point of pedis artery

Answer 37

dorsal surface of the foot lateral to the tibialis anterior tendon
