Lab Practical 3 Flashcards
Pelvic girdle
Attaches lower limbs to axial skeleton
Acetabulum
Cavity in the pelvis where the head of the femur articulates
- Has high stability, low range of motion
Sacrum
Where the pelvis articulates with the vertebral column
Coxal bone
1 half of the pelvis
3 bones that fuse together during development that makes up a coxal bone
- Illium
- Ischium
- Pubis
Illium
Superior portion of coxal bone
Ischium
Posterior portion of coxal bone
Pubis
Anterior portion of coxal bone
Auricular surface
Where coxal articulates with sacrum
Pubic symphysis
Where the two coxal bones articulate
What sits between a symphasis of two bones?
Fibrocartilage
What does fibrocartilage do?
Gives movement and flexibility
What relaxes the fibrocartilage during labor and delivery?
Relaxin
Male vs female pelvis
- Illiac sits taller in men
- Pubic arch is larger in females
- Pelvic inlet and outlet are larger in females
- Curve of coccyx is more curved in males
Pelvic inlet
Diameter of pelvic brim
Pelvic outlet
Space between one ischial spine to the other ischial spine
Medial vs lateral on coxal
Acetabulum faces lateral
Posterior vs anterior on coxal
Ischial spine faces posterior
Medial vs lateral on femur
Head faces medial
Anterior vs posterior on femur
Intercondylar fossa faces posterior
Anterior vs posterior on tibia
Tibial tuberosity faces anterior
Medial vs lateral on tibia
Medial malleolus faces medial
Posterior vs anterior on fibula
Apex is posterior
Medial vs lateral on fibula
Lateral malleolus is lateral
Hallux
Big toe; has two phalanges instead of 3
Tarsals
Bones in lower part of foot
Metatarsals
Upper part of foot
Flexion
Of hip: Forward
Of knee: Goes backwards
Extension
Goes back to anatomical position
Medial rotation
Turning foot in (rotates at hip)
Lateral rotation
Turning foot out (rotates at hip)
Plantar flexion
Standing on toes, heels go up
Dorsi flexion
Pointing toes upwards
Inversion
Moving sole of foot inwards
Eversion
Moving sole of foot outwards
Quadricepts
- Rectus formalis
- Vastus medialis
- Vastus intermedius
- Vastis lateralis
Hamstrings
- Semitendinosus
- Semimembranosus
- Biceps femoris
Hip flexor
- Illiacus
