Origin
Where the muscle begins
30
Insertion
Where the muscle goes
31
Agonist Muscle
Increases motion
32
Antagonist Muscle
Decreases another muscle or moves in the opposite direction
33
Synergistic
Muscles working together for one motion
34
Axial Skeleton
Head, neck, trunk
35
Appendicular Skeleton
Bones of the limbs
36
3 Types of joints
1. Fibrous 2. Cartilagenous 3. Synovial
37
Fibrous joint
Bone to bone
38
Cartilagenous joint
Intervertebral disc or epiphyseal plates - Cartilage to bone
39
Synovial Joint
Has synovial fluid, i.e., knee
40
Differences between muscle types
Striated - Voluntary - Multiple peripherally located nuclei Cardiac - Involuntary - Single central nuclei Smooth - Involuntary - Unstriated, single central nucleus
41
How many bones in each vertebral section?
Cervical - 7 Thoracic - 12 Lumbar - 5 Sacral - 5 fused Coccyx - 3 - 5 fused
42
Pars
Portion of the vertebrae located between the superior and inferiorarticular processes of the facet joint
43
Spondylolysis
fracture in typically the 5th lumbar vertebrae
44
Spondylolithiases
When a spondylolysis fracture weakens the bone to the point that it cannot sustain proper positioning causing the vertbrae to shift out of place
45
Zygopophysial joints
Another name for facets
46
Kyphosis
Hunchback (hyperkyphosis = when upper angle of vertebrae (between vertebrae 1 - 12) goes from 20-40 degrees to 45+ degrees
47
Scoliosis
Spine moves laterally in the middle instead of ventral/dorsal
48
Lordosis
Swayback - Deep inward curve of lumbar spine
49
Herniated Nucleus Pulposus
“Ruptured Disc” (HNP) - Typically in lumbar or cervical area, ruptured symphyseal joint caused by a degenerated annulus fibrosus tearing or pulling apart allowing the softer gel-like inner nucleus pulposus to extrude usually just lateral to the posterior longitudinal ligament
50
How does the head rotate about the Dens?
Dens of C2 must move as a unit with C1 when the head is flexed or extended. Also, if the Dens is fractured and if the neck is then allowed to flex (bend forward) the unstable dens could be driven into the spinal cord = rapidly fatal
51
What happens if neural tube does not close fully
Incomplete closing of the neural tude during development causing some vertebrae to not fully form and thus they remain open and unfused. If large enough, the spinal cord can drift out of the vertebrae, sometimes along with a fluid filled sack around this area
52
Meningocele
Protrusion of the membranes that cover the spine and part of the spinal cord through a bone defect in the vertebral column. MM is due to failure of closure during embryonic life of bottom end of the neural tube, the structure which gives rise to the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). The term spina bifida refers specifically to the bony defect in the vertebral column through which the meningeal membrane and cord may protrude (spina bifida cystica) or may not protrude so that the defect remains hidden, covered by skin (spina bifida occulta). However, through usage the term spina bifida is gradually becoming synonymous with MM. The risk of MM (and all neural tube defects) can be decreased by the mother eating ample folic acid during pregnancy.
53
Meningomyelocele
Worst case. Hole big enough for the cord to leave, gets trapped in the meninge to form a sac.
54
Spina Bifida Occulta
Least worrisome, hole but no protrusion, usually no marks on skin
55
Spina Bifida Cystica
Another name for meningomyelocele
56
Osteophyte
A bone spur
57
Fontanel
Wide sutures formed where more than two bones meet in the skull
58
Epimere
Dorsal portion of a somite from which is formed muscles innervated by the dorsal ramus of the spinal nerve
