(C) Second Quarter Final Study Guide Flashcards
2nd Quarter final
Functional Classifications of Joints
Functional classification is based on the amount of movement
- Synarthroses
- Amphiarthroses
- Diarthroses
Synovial Joints
Most movable type of joint
All are diarthroses
Each contains a fluid-filled joint cavity
Richly supplied with sensory nerves that Detect pain
lubricating devices
Are subjected to compressive forces
Friction could overheat and destroy joint tissue
Have a rich blood supply
Synovial fluid
A viscous fluid similar to raw egg white
A filtrate of blood
Contains glycoprotein molecules secreted by fibroblasts
Bursa
a flattened fibrous sac lined by a synovial membrane
- closed bags of lubricant
reduce friction between body elements
- not synovial joints
the most important factor in joint stability
Muscle tone
keeps tension on muscle tendons
FLexion
decrease the angle between two bones
Extension
increase the angle between bones
Abduction (A.B duction)
moving a limb away from the body midline
Adduction (A.D duction)
moving a limb toward the body midline
Circumduction
moving a limb or finger so that it describes a cone in space
Supination
forearm rotates laterally – palm faces anteriorly
special movement
Pronation
– forearm rotates medially – palm faces posteriorly
special movement
Supine
face up
Prone
face down
Dorsiflexion
lifting the foot so its superior surface approaches the shin
Plantar Flexion
depressing the foot – pointing the toes
(Think of a ballerina)
Hinge joints
Cylindrical end of one bone fits into a trough on another bone
Elbow, ankle, knee and joints between phalanges
Movement is uniaxial – allows movement around one axis only
Condyloid Joints
Allow moving bone to travel:
Side to side – abduction-adduction
Back and forth – flexion-extension
Classified as biaxial – movement occurs around two axes
Ball and Socket Joint
Spherical head of one bone fits into round socket of another
Classified as multiaxial – allow movement in all axes
Examples: shoulder and hip joints
Functional Classifications of Muscle Tissue
1) Skeletal muscle - attached to skeleton (40% of body weight, striations)
Moves body by moving the bones
2) Smooth muscle – squeezes fluids and other substances through hollow organs (involuntary; no striations)
3) Cardiac muscle – propels blood through the circulatory system (coiled striations for contraction)
Epimysium
- Type of Connective Tissue of Skeletal Muscle
- dense irregular connective tissue surrounding entire muscle
Perimysium
- Type of Connective Tissue of Skeletal Muscle
-surrounds each fascicle – fibrous connective tissue (group of muscle fibers)
Endomysium
- Type of Connective Tissue of Skeletal Muscle
– a fine sheath of connective tissue wrapping each muscle cell – mostly reticular fibers
Lavator Anguli Oris
- Origin: maxilla
- Insertion: Skin/muscle at corner of the mouth
- Action: Raises angle of the mouth
Also called: Snarling muscle
Found deep to the Quadratus labii superioris
