Q

Joints that are convex to concave surfaces

Allow flexion and extension only

A

Hinge Joints

25
Composed of connective tissue Connect bone to bone
Ligaments
26
Tough band of fibrous connective tissue Function to connect muscle to bone
Tendons
27
Skeletal muscle contracts and moves bones via:
Tendons
28
Covers ends of bones Absorbs shock Reduces friction
Cartilage
29
Decreases friction in areas where friction can occur with movement - Between the skin and bone - Between tendons and bones - Between muscles and bones - Between ligaments and bones
Bursa
30
Type of muscle: Movement of bones/body parts Stabilize body positions
Skeletal muscle
31
Type of muscle: Heart only Develops pressure for blood flow
Cardiac muscle
32
Types of muscle: Located in the GI Tract
Smooth muscle
33
Four major functions of muscles
Produce body movements Stabilize body positions Store and move substances Produce heat
34
Decrease in the angle between articulating bones
Flexion
35
Increase in angle between articulating bones
Extension
36
Bending beyond 180 degrees, such as moving humerus backwards behind the anatomical plane
Hyperextension
37
Movement of bone away from the midline
Abduction
38
Movement of bone toward the midline
Adduction
39
Movement of distal end in a circle
Circumduction
40
Bone revolves around its own longitudinal axis
Rotation
41
Movement of the soles of the foot medially
Inversion
42
Movement of the soles of the foot laterally
Eversion
43
Bending foot toward the dorsum (standing on heels)
Dorsiflexion
44
Bending the foot toward the plantar surfaces (Standing on toes)
Plantarflexion
45
Movement of forearm so palms face forward or upward
Supination
46
Movement of the forearms so palms face backward or downward
Pronation
47
_____ results from pain, disease to the muscle or damage to the motor neuron
Atrophy
48
Results from injury to muscle's motor neuron
Fasciculations
49
Examine _____ range of motion if unable to complete active range of motion
Passive
50
Passive range of motion typically exceeds active range of motion by __ degrees
5
51
Used to precisely measure joint angles
Goniometer
52
No evidence of muscle function (including muscle twitch)
Zero, 0/5
53
Muscle contraction but no or very limited joint motion
Trace, 1/5
54
Complete range of motion with gravity eliminated
Poor, 2/5
55
Complete range of motion against gravity
Fair, 3/5
56
Complete range of motion against with some resistance
Good, 4/5
57
Complete range of motion with full or normal resistance
Normal, 5/5
58
Muscle weakness may result from:
Disuse atrophy Pain Fatigue Overstretching
59
Nerve root function should be tested if:
Symptoms are due to neck/back problems Disorder is localized to the extremities
