Exam 1 Flashcards
congruent vs incongruent joints
congruent: equal joint surfaces
incongruent: unequal joint surfaces
a basketball free throw would be considered in the ________ plane and ______axis for the glenohumeral joint
sagittal plane and transverse axis
what is joint incongruency
incongruent joints have dissimilar amounts of available surface on each side of the articulation
is a nordic hamstring curl a CKC or OKC
CKC
What is one characteristic of OKC excercizes
distal segment is mobile with a stable proximal segment
whats another name for the transverse axis
medio-lateral axis
arm abduction at the shoulder joint is classified as _____ slide and _____ roll
inferior slide
superior roll
whats the difference between osteokinematics and arthrokinematics
osteokinematics: change in position in space
arthrokinematics: movements internal to joints
whats mechanoadaptation
the bones ability to respond to a mechanical bond
difference between your axial and appendicular skeleton
axial skeleton is the skull, thorax and vertebral column
appendicular skeleton is the limbs. this also counts the scapula and pelvis (ilium)
what product are flat bones rich in
bone marrow
whats are the two main differences between sesamoid bones and short bones
short bones are more cubelike; while sesamoid bones are more circular
sesamoid bones will be imbedded into a tendon; like the patella
what are the 5 forces that can act on a bone
1,2- compression/tension: both pushing in or both pulling out
3- shear: opposite horizontal movements
4- torsion: opposite rotations
5- bending
whats the role of osteoclasts
multicellular bones that reabsorb effected bone
what are osteoblasts
cells that create new bone, they come in after the osteoclasts.
some get trapped in the new bone that was just created.
what are osteocytes
signaling molecules. lets the other cells know when a microtear occurs and where. this mainly signals to the osteoclasts
whats cortical bone
compact, dense, outer layer, can withstand pressure forces
whats cancellous bone
spongy, porous, inner bone layer
what are the hinge joints of the body
elbow, knee, IP hand joints, IP foot joints, tibiotalar joint of the ankle (talocural joint)
what movements does the hinge joint allow
how many DOF
flexion/extension
1
what joints in the body are pivot joints
atlas/axis in neck, radioulnar joint
what movements occur at pivot joints
how many DOF
rotation around a single axis
1
what bones are ellipsoid joints
MTP joints, MCP joints, radiocarpal joint
what movements can occur for ellipsoid joints
how many DOF
flexion/extension
ab/adduction
