FINALS MUSCULO Flashcards
consists of the bones, skeletal muscles, and joints.
MUSCULOSKELETAL
to support and provide a framework for the body, protecting
structures, acting as levers for movement, storing
fats and minerals, and producing blood cells.
BONES
Bone shapes includes:
- Long bones (femur, humerus)
- Short bones (carpals, tarsals)
- Flat bones (sternum, ribs)
- Irregular bones (vertebrae, hip bones)
Most skeletal muscles are_________
voluntary
Composed of hundreds of thousands of elongated
muscle cells or fibers arranged in striated bands
that attach to skeletal bones.
SKELETAL MUSCLE
tough fibrous bands that attach
muscle to bone or attach muscle to muscle.
TENDONS
also known as Articulation
The point where two or more bones in the body
meet
EX:
- Fibrous
- Cartilaginous
- Synovial
JOINTS
can increase calcium absorption
directly and indirectly by stimulating 1-α
hydroxylase activity in the kidney.
ESTROGEN
measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a
nerve’s stimulation of the muscle.
Electromyography (EMG),
Movement in which
limb describes a cone
in space
Distal end of the limbs
moves in a circle.
Circumduction
Movement of limbs
away from the midline
of the body.
Term used to describe
movement of finger or
toes, means spreading
them apart
Abduction
Movement of limbs
towards the body
midline.
Term used to describe
movement of fingers,
Bringing close
together
Adduction
Refers to the
movement of the foot,
the sole of the foot is
turned medially
Inversion
Increases the angle
between the
articulating bones.
Straightens the joint
Extension
Refers to the
movement of the foot,
the sole of the foot
faces laterally.
Eversion
Bending movement
that decreases the
angle of joint and
brings articulating
bones closer together
Bending of the Joint
Flexion
Movement of the
forearm so that the
palm faces down,
posteriorly or inferiorly.
Pronation
Movement of the
forearm so the palm
faces up, anteriorly or
superiorly.
Supination
is a nonangular anterior
movement in a
transverse plane.
Moving the body part
back to its original
position on a parallel
plane.
Retraction
The turning movement
of bone along its own
axis.
May occur toward the
midline or away from it.
Rotation
Is a non angular
anterior movement in a
transverse plane.
Movement of a body
part forward on a plane parallel to the
ground
