Grade 10 PHE Flashcards
Name and explain all 5 anatomical and directional terms
Anatomical and directional terms:
1) Proximal and Distal:
Proximal: Close/Closer to the medial line
Distal: Far/Farther from the medial line
2) Superficial and Deep:
Superficial: Close/Closer to the skin’s surface
Deep: Far/farther from the skin’s surface
3)Lateral: Away from the midline of the body
4) Superior and Inferior:
Superior: Close/closer to the head of the body
Inferior: Far/farther from the head of the body
5) Anterior or ventral and posterior or dorsal:
Anterior: towards the front of the body
Posterior: towards the back of the body
Name all 13 major muscle groups
Front:
- delts/shoulders, pecs/chest, biceps, abdominals, obliques, and quads.
Back:
- delts/shoulders, traps, triceps, lats,
erector spinae, glutes, hamstrings, and calves.
What are the 3 different types of muscles?
Types of muscles:
1) Skeletal muscles connected by tendons to bone. EX: Stapedius
2) cardiac muscles which are in our heart
3) smooth muscles that line the blood vessels and organs
EX: intestines
What are muscles on a microscopic level?
Muscles are fibers that are tightly bonded together.
What’s the difference between slow twitch and fast twitch muscle fibers?
Fast Twitch: React instantly when triggered, quickly use up energy and tire out,
EX: Sprinter
Slow Twitch: Endurance, react and use energy slowly and thus work longer periods of time,
EX: Marathoner
what are antagonist and agonist muscle pairs?
Antagonists are the contraction of muscles and the agonists are the ones relaxing allowing for the contraction because muscles can only PULL.
What are the four main functions of a skeleton?
Should mothers protect babies?
Shape and support, movement, protection, and blood production.
What are the four main types of bones?
Long bones: Tibia
Short bone: wrist or ankle bone
Flat bone: Skull
Irregular: Vertebrae
What are the three different types of joints?
Synovial(movement), Fibrous, and cartilaginous
What are the 6 subtypes of synovial joins?
Gliding, Hinge, Pivot
Condyloid, saddle, ball and socket.
Define Gliding Joints
joints move against each other on a single plane. Major gliding joints include the intervertebral joints and the bones of the wrists and ankles.
Hinge joints
joints move on just one axis. These joints allow for flexion and extension. Major hinge joints include the elbow and finger joints
Pivot
joint provides rotation. At the top of the spine, the atlas and axis form a pivot joint that allows for rotation of the head.
Condyloid
joint allows for circular motion, flexion, and extension. The wrist joint between the radius and the carpal bones is an example of a condyloid joint.
Saddle
joint allows for flexion, extension, and other movements, but no rotation.
