Extension

24
Q

Lowering part

A

Depression

25
Q

Turning palm downward

A

Pronation

26
Q

Moving part away from midline

A

Abduction

27
Q

Movements that occur between the humerus and ulna are hinge. - flexion and extension. The head of the radius of free to rotate in the annular ligament. This provides movement of pronation and supination

A

Describe the movements in the elbow joint

28
Q

Describe how the articulate surfaces of the hip joint are held together

A

Ligamentum Capitis attaches to Fovea Capitis on the head of the femur and to connective tissue in the acetabulum; which carries blood vessels to head of the femur. The acetabular labrum (ring of fibrocartilage) at the rim of the acetabulum deepens the cavity of the acetabulum. It encloses the head of the femur and holds it securely in place. A cylindrical joint capsule reinforced with ligaments surrounds the articulating structures and connects the neck of the femur to the margin of the acetabulum.

29
Q

Explain why there is less movement in the hip joint that in the shoulder joint

A

Muscles surround the joint capsule of the hip. The articulating parts of the hip are held closely together more so than the shoulder joint which allows less freedom of movement.

30
Q

Explain the function of the meniscus of the knee

A

2 fibrocartilaginous menisci separate the articulating surfaces of the femur and tibia and help align them.

31
Q

What has a C shape with a thick rim and thin center; attaches to the head of tibia

A

Menisci

32
Q

What form depressions that fit the corresponding consumes of the femur

A

Medial and lateral menisci
