4th degree
what is fascia
wrapping, packaging and insulating tissues of the deep structures of the body
what is deep fascia
deep dense organized tissue layer devoid of fat that runs parallel to skin
what is investing fascia
fascia that may invest (become sheaths for) deeper structures
what is a fascial compartment
compartments of fascia that house muscles with similar function and nerve supply
what is an intermuscular septa
fascia that separates a fascicle compartment
What is a retinaculum
fascia that holds tendons in place and prevents them from bow stringing
what is subserous fascia
fascia that lie between body cavities and internal surfaces of musculoskeletal walls
what is a bursae and what is it made of
sack that lubricates a joint, serous membrane
what is a subcutaneous bursae
bursa that allows movement between skin and bony prominences
where are subfascial bursae
beneath deep fascia
what do subtendinous bursae do
facilitate movement of tendons over bone
what is a synovial tendon sheath and what is its purpose
elongated bursae that wrap around bursae as they traverse osseofibrous tunnels
when a bursa surrounds an organ cavity what are the two layers of bursa called
visceral
parietal
describe the axial and appendicular skeletons
Axial - head neck and trunk
appendicular - limbs including shoulder girdle and pelvis
what is cartilage
resilient and semirigid tissue found where flexibility is requiered
what type of cartilage is found on an articulating surface of a bone
articulating cartilage
what 5 functions do bones provide
support protection basis for movement storage for salts blood cell supply

fibrous tissue all non articulating surfaces of bone
what is the perichondrium
fibrous tissue that covers articulating surfaces of bone
what are the two types of bone tissue
compact
spongy (trabecular)
what is a spicule

what is a bone facet
smooth flat area where bones articulate
what is a bone foramen
passage through a bone
what is a bone fossa
hollow or depressed are
