25
What is lordosis
Cervical and lumbar convex anteriorly, concave posteriorly
26
What is kyphosis
Sacrum and thoracic, convex posteriorly and concave anteriorly
27
Where is the line of gravity
Near mastoid process, anterior to S2, posterior to hips, anterior to knee and ankle
28
What can alter the line of gravity
Fat deposition Hypomobility in the spine Posture Muscle strength and endurance Connective tissues extensibility Position and magnitude of loads Facet orientation Disease
29
What is ligament flavum
Anterior surface on laminate to posterior surface of one below 80% elastin 20% collagen Constant modest resistance throughout wide range of flex ion with 35% elongation Thickest Small but constant compression/stabilization in neutral
30
What is interspinous ligament
Fill space of adjacent spinous processes Resist flexion Deep=More elastin Superficial= more collagen
31
What is the supraspinous ligament
Attaches between the tips of the spinous processes Resist flexion Have more collagen
32
What is ligamentum nuchae
Tough bilaminar strip of fibroelastic tissue attaches cervical processes and external occipital protuberance Midline attachment for muscles Passive tension for extension support
33
what is the intertransverse ligament
thin, membranous taut in contralateral lateral flexion slightly tight in forward flexion
34
what is the anterior longitudinal ligament
long, strong, straplike basilar part of occipital bone to sacrum taut in extension and slack in flexion
35
what is the posterior longitudinal ligament
entire length of posterior surface of all vertebral bodies to sacrum anterior to spinal cord cranially is broad, narrow toward lumbar region taut with flexion
36
what is the capsular ligament of apophyseal jt
attach to rim of the facet surfaces reinforced by adjacent multifidus/ligamentum flava some fibers taut in each end ROM
37
what is the restricted with ligaments in sagittal plane
posterior- stretch in flexion anterior- stretch in extension
38
what is the neutral zone
the wiggle room between vertebrae
39
why does the neutral zone grow what happens when it grows
DDD or ligamentous injury more laxity or instability= more demands on the stabilizing systems
40
how does the neutral zone compare with hypo and hypermobility
hypo- not enough neutral zone hyper- too much neutral zone
41
what is the passive system
passive portion of the musculotendinous units and send feedback to the neural subsystem
42
what is the active system
composed of muscles and tendons
43
what exercise can stress passive system
plyometrics
44
what is the neural subsystem
receives and transmits information from the two other systems to manage spinal stability neuromuscular
45
where can core stability be found
segmental level of the spine and the whole spine
46
when is the neutral zone is found to increase, what is happening with core stability
more slide, glide and rotation- the spinal segments become unstable
47
how are the superior cervical surfaces
concave side to side with hooks uncinate processes
48
how are the inferior cervical processes
concave ant/post - jt forms between hooks/recess C3-4 - uncovertebral through C6-7 jts of luschka
49
what is the cause of an osteophyte on U jts and what is compromised because of the osteophyte
repetitive stress - hypermobile, malalignment, etc shown to compress and inflame the exiting C spinal n root

how do the facets face on C3-6
superior - posterior/superior inferior - anterior/inferior
