Q

Hyaline cartilage

A

Most common

Precursor to bone in endochondral ossification

articular cartilage-caps the ends of bony articular surfaces

Provides flexibility to skeleton

E.g.- costal cartilage, nose cartilage

Q

Sutures

A

Fibrous skeletal joint

Interdigitated connections between bones of the skull

Held together by Sharpey’s fibers (type Ill collagen)

Sutures strong sharpey- 3 S’s

Q

Secondary joint

A

Cartilaginous skeletal joint

Symphysis

2 bones with a thick fibrocartilage pad between them

E.g. Pubic symphysis,intervertebral disc

17
Q

Skeletal joints-synovial

A

Highly mobile,joint cavity filled with synovial fluid

Articular surfaces covered in hyaline cartilage

Meniscus(pad) formed by fibrocartilage in some joints

E.g. TMJ, atlanto-axial joint (C1-C2), sternochondral joint

18
Q

Types of synovial joints

A

Hinge, pivot, saddle (thumb), condylar (finger), plane (clavicle),ball and socket (hip)

TMJ: hinge and plane (combination joint)

19
Q

Development of the Skeleton

A
  • Endochondral ossification cartilaginous precursor bone
    • forms at primary ossification centers
    • bones lengthen at secondary ossification centers (epiphyses)
    • E.g. Long bones, skull base
  • Intramembranous ossification
    • connective tissue (mesenchyme) precursor
    • bones of the cranial vault and face
20
Q

Musculoskeletal connective tissues

A
  • Fascia
    • superficial fascia=subdermis
    • deep fascia surrounds muscles and neurovasculature
    • visceral fascia surrounds organs
  • Ligaments connect bone to bone
  • Tendons connect muscle to bone or other structures (skin, eye)
21
Q

Muscle functions

A

Responsible for motion, joint support,moving substances through internal organs,move blood through circulatory system, heat production (shivering)

22
Q

Muscle types

A

Skeletal, cardiac, smooth

23
Q

Skeletal muscle

A

Striated

Voluntary Moves bones and other structures

Innervated by GSE (alpha and gamma motor neurons) and SVE

24
Q

Cardiac muscle

A

Involuntary

Striated/intercalated discs

Heart Innervated by GVE

25
Q

Smooth muscle

A

Involuntary

Walls of vessels and hollow organs

Innervated by GVE

26
Q

Muscle shapes

A

Convergent, circular,parallel,unipennate, multipennate,fusiform, bipennate

27
Q

Muscle contraction types

A

Concentric-contracting and shortening, produces motion

Isometric-contracting, no length change, stabilizes

Eccentric-contracting and lengthening, regulates motion of antagonists

28
Q

Agonist

A

Causes motion through concentric contraction

29
Q

Antagonist

A

Opposes and regulates movement through eccentric contraction

30
Q

Synergist

A

Aids the agonist through concentric contraction

31
Q

Fixator

A

Stabilizes a skeletal element through isometric contraction generally around shoulders and hips)

32
Q

Sides of muscle contraction

A

Bilateral-both sides of a paired muscle contract (shrug)

Unilateral-one side of pained muscle contracts (tilting head)

Ipsilateral-same side as contracting muscle

Contralateral-opposite side from contracting muscle
