Lab 5 Flashcards
3 bones that make up the coxal bone (pelvic girdle)
Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
4 bones that form the pelvis
right hip bone, left hip bone, sacrum, coccyx
What originates on the iliac crest
Gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, transversus abdominis
What does the head of the femur articulate with
acetabulum
What attaches to the fovea capitis
ligament of the head of the femur
What is the weakest part of the femur
the neck
Where do the gluteus medius and minimus insert
greater trochanter of femur
Where do the ilioposoas muscles insert
lesser trochanter
What muscles insert into the gluteal tuberosity of femur
Pectineus and gluteus maximus
What separates the medial and lateral condyles of femur
intercondylar fossa
3 functions of the patella
strengthens the quad muscle, protects anterior surface of knee joint, acts as pulley
what do the medial and lateral tibial condyles of tibia articulate with
the medial and lateral condyles of femur
where is the tibia tuberosity
on anterior surface of tibia, where patella attaches
What originates at the soleal line of tibia
soleus muscle
Where is soleus muscle
Muscle in back of calf to heel, plantar flexion
What does the medial malleolus of tibia do
Supports ankle joint and prevents tibia from sliding laterally
Where is the fibula with relation to Tibia
Runs parallel on lateral side
What does the head of the Fibula articulate with
The inferior posterior surface of lateral tibial condyle
What does the lateral malleolus articulate with
The talus bone
