  2. flexus pollicis longus
  3. pronator quadratus
29
Q

What is the origin and insertion of the supinator muscle? Where is this muscle located? is it in the deep or superficial layer? What is its action?

A

O: lateral epicondyle of the humerus
I: lateral, posterior and anterior surfaces of proximal third of radius

This muscle is located in the posterior compartment of the forearm and it is in the deep layer. Its action is to supinate the forearm

30
Q

What is the action of the adductor pollicis?

A

adducts thumb toward middle digit

31
Q

What group does the adductor pollicis belong?

A

central compartment of the hand

32
Q

What is the main action of the brachioradialis muscle? What nerve innervates this muscle?

A

Powers elbow flexion and semi-pronation; radial nerve. *Not considered a member of either the flexor or extensor group

33
Q

How many metacarpals are there?

A

5

34
Q

What number digit is assigned to the thumb? the pinky?

A

thumb - 1st digit

pinky - 5th digit

35
Q

What two bones articulate with the radius?

A

carpal bones scaphoid and lunate

36
Q

What bone does the 1st metacarpal articulate with?

A

trapezium

37
Q

Which bone does the 2nd metacarpal articulate with ?

A

trapezoid

38
Q

What bone does the 3rd metacarpal articulate with?

A

capitate

39
Q

What bone does the 4th metacarpal articulate with?

A

hamate

40
Q

What bone does the 5th metacarpal articulate with?

A

hamate

41
Q

How many carpal bones are there?

A

8

42
Q

What are the purpose if the carpal bones?

A

They allow for mobility of the hand and opposition which is unique to the human species

43
Q

Name the proximal row of carpal bones from lateral to medial

A

Scaphoid –> lunate –> Triquetral –> pisiform

44
Q

Name the distal row of carpal bones from lateral to medial

A

trapezium –> trapezoid –> capitate –> hamate

45
Q

What is special about the 1st phalange?

A

The thumb (1st digit) has only 2 bones: the proximal and distal phalanx. It does not have a middle bone. The rest of the 4 digits have 3: proximal, middle and distal

46
Q

What type of joint is the elbow?

A

synovial; hinge

47
Q

What is the carrying angle?

A

Since the trochlear is larger medially, the ulna migrates laterally. This creates a 15 degree carrying angle of the forearm which is greater in females than in males to accommodate for the wider pelvic girdle.

48
Q

What kind of joint is the proximal radioulnar joint? What kind of movement does it allow?

A

pivot joint; pronation and supination

49
Q

What bones make up the wrist joint?

A

the distal end of the radius and the proximal row of carpal bones

50
Q

is the ulna part of the wrist joint?

A

no because it is separated from the carpals by a fibre-cartilagenous disc and does not contribute to the wrist joint

51
Q

What kind of joint is the wrist joint?

A

condyloid, synovial joint because of the shape of the radius and the two carpal bones that the radius directly articulates with: scaphoid and lunate

52
Q

What bones make up the metacarpal-phalangeal joints (MCPs)? What actions do they allow?

A

metacarpals and phalanges. The heads make up the knuckles.

  1. flexion/extension
  2. abduction/adduction
53
Q

What type of joint is between the trapezium and the base of the first metacarpal?

A

saddle-type, synovial joint. This joint allows for opposition.

Movements:

  1. flex/ext
  2. abd/add
  3. opposition
54
Q

What are the joints between the phalanges called? What kind of joints are they?

A

interphalangeal joints

  1. proximal interphalangeal joints (PIP)
  2. Distal interphalangeal joints (DIP) (digits 2-5)

Interphalangeal joints are hinge joints

55
Q

PRONATOR TERES

A

O: medial epicondyle of humerus
I: middle of lateral surface of radius
A: pronates forearm and flexes elbow

anterior compartment of forearm; superficial layer

56
Q

SUPINATOR

A

O: Lateral epicondyle of humerus
I: lateral, posterior, and anterior surfaces of proximal third of radius
A: supinates forearm

posterior compartment; deep layer

57
Q

PRONATOR QUADRATUS

A

O: Distal 4th of anterior surface of ulna
I: Distal fourth of anterior surface of radius
A: Pronates forearm

anterior compartment; deep layer

58
Q

EXTENSOR DIGITI MINIMI

A

O: lateral epicondyle of humerus
I: Extensor expansion of 5th digit
A: Extends the 5th digit at the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints

innervated by: radial nerve

posterior compartment; superficial layer
