Q

rotation and sidebending to opposite sides are blank

A

fryettes law 1

29
Q

rotation and sidebending to same sides are blank

A

fryettes law 2

30
Q

typical cervical vertebrae have blank properties

A

meniscoid

31
Q

impingement of meniscoid contact lens then it could refer pain and be blank classified

A

derangement

32
Q

innervation to capsules of typical vertebrae and can cause referred pain

A

posterior rami C2-C8

33
Q

first iv disc of cervical spine

A

C3-C4

34
Q

adults do not have the blank component of cervical iv discs

A

gelatinous

35
Q

lumbar discs have blank but cervical discs dont

A

concentric annulus

36
Q

cervical pain cannot arise from blank fissures in the blank since there is no blank anulus fibrosus in a cervical disc

A

posterolateral, anulus fibrosus, posterolateral

37
Q

discogenic pain of cervical is more caused by blank or tears of the blank anulus fibrosus or blank ligament

A

strain, anterior, PLL

38
Q

how can we sb left and rotate right in cervical spine in typical vertebrae

A

aa joint comes into play for rotation

39
Q

fryette’s law applies to typical vertebrae in sagittal plane blank and blank

A

neutral, nonneutral

40
Q

right sidebending of oa, blank and blank glide on blank side

A

posterior, inferior, ipsilateral

41
Q

right sidebending of oa, blank and blank glide on blank side

A

anterior, superior, contralateral

42
Q

sidebending is like blank on the ipsilateral side and blank on the contralateral side

A

extension, flexion

43
Q

right rotation of aa joint makes blank/blank on ipsilateral side and blank/blank on contralateral side

A

posterior/inferior, anterior/superior

44
Q

most cervical flexion/extension comes from these vertebrae

A

c4-c6

45
Q

these two ligaments separate the dens from the spinal cord by creating posterior and anterior portions of the atlas

A

transverse, atlantal cruciform

46
Q

vertical fibers of transverse ligaments connect blank and blank

A

axis, occiput

47
Q

paired ligament attaching dens to medial occiput

A

alar

48
Q

alar ligament is taut during blank but lax during blank

A

flexion, extension

49
Q

alar ligament helps prevent blank displacement of c1 on c2

A

anterior

50
Q

whiplash occurs in blank milliseconds

A

400

51
Q

alar ligament also helps prevent blank

A

contralateral rotation

52
Q

whiplash creates blank because axis of rotation moves blank

A

compression, up

53
Q

disk protrusions are when the annular fibers are blank

A

intact

54
Q

disk protrusion that is usually laterally

A

localized annular bulge

55
Q

disk protrusion that is usually posterior

A

diffuse annular bulge

56
Q

disk prolapse is when annular fibers are blank

A

disrupted

57
Q

disk prolapse is when blank has migrated through the inner laminar layer but still contained

A

nucleus

58
Q

disk extrusion has annular fibers blank

A

disrupted

59
Q

nucleus breaks through the outermost layer

A

disk extrusion

60
Q

nucleus separates from disk and goes into spinal or iv canal

A

disk sequestration

61
Q

disk sequestration has annular fibers blank

A

disrupted

62
Q

straight compression forces will damage blank

A

vertebral endplate

63
Q

extensors of head/neck are referred to as blank muscles

A

suboccipital ghost

64
Q

obliquus capitis superior action

A

extend/sb ipsilateral

65
Q

obliquus capitis inferior action

A

rotate atlas ipsilateral

66
Q

rectus capitis posterior minor and major action

A

extend/rotate ipsilaterally

67
Q

semispinalis capitis action

A

contralateral rotation (uni), extension (bi)

68
Q

splenius capitis/cervicis action

A

ipsilateral sb (uni), extension (bi)

69
Q

effect where two muscles oppose each other to keep head in neutral position in good posture (allows balance)

A

guy wire
