35
Which joints have abduction and abduction capabilities?
-ball and socket joint -condyloid joint (ellipsoidal)
36
Define irritability
The ability to receive and respond to a stimulus commonly from an associated nerve
37
Define extensibility
The ability of a muscle to be stretched or increase in length beyond the resting length
38
What are the viscoelastic properties of muscles
Stress/force Strain/ change in shape TIME/ Rate of loading
39
How one emphasize greater force production in the muscle ?
Application of rapid, high force stretch, immediately preceding a shortening concentric contraction of the same muscle
40
A tendon is …
The connective tissue coverings that attach muscle to bone
41
What is a concentric contraction ?
Involves shortening of muscle resulting in visible joint movement Torque from muscle or muscle group is greater than that of the resistance
42
What is an eccentric contraction
Lengthening of the muscle as visible joint movement Torque produced by the resistance is greater than the torque produced by the muscle
43
Define the stabilizer
Muscle that contract isometrically to support or steady a body part against forces related to muscle contraction, gravity, soft tissue constraints, momentum or recoil from the movement
44
What is the definition of force couple as it relates to the body ?
Describes muscles located at different positions relative to a joint axis but that act together to produce rotation in the same direction
45
What is the force coupling of the musculature around the hips that help prevent potential injury in athletes
The recurs abdominals stabilizes the body upward using external oblique muscles The gluteus Maximus and hamstring muscles stabilizes the body downward and stabilizes the posterior tilt
46
What is the law that talks about the mechanism of bone remodeling
Wolff’s law- binds remodel in response to forces acting on bones -loading with weight bearing -forces from muscle contraction
47
Define the center of mass/gravity
Single point of a body about which every particle of its mass is equally distributed Does not change
48
Define line of gravity
Imaginary line running from the center of made of the body toward the ground Position ins wove changes as the body moves around
49
