Module 1 (Bone and Biomechanics) Overview Flashcards
Tissue Types
Epithelial
Connective
Muscle
Nervous
Types of Epithelial Tissue
Epithelia Glands (exocrine and endocrine)
Types of Connective Tissue
Connective tissue proper (loose and dense)
Fluid connective tissue (blood and lymph)
Supporting connective tissue (cartilage and bone)
Connective tissue fibres
Collagen
Elastin
Nervous tissue cells
Neurons
Glia
Types of muscle tissues
Skeletal
Cardiac
Smooth
Muscle tension depends on:
Recruitment
Frequency of stimulation
Muscle fibers
Fast twitch fibres
Slow twitch fibres
Muscle form depends on:
Length of muscle fibres
Number of muscle fibres
Arrangement of muscle fibres
Muscle contraction
Concentric
Eccentric
Isometric
Muscle roles
Agonist
Antagonist
Stabiliser
Neutraliser
Lever components
Fulcrum (joint) Applied Force (muscle) Load (internal or external weight)
1st class lever: L, F, AF 2nd class lever: F, L, AF 3rd class lever: F, AF, L
Bone structures
Compact
Cancellous
Bone composition
2% Cellular
(osteogenic, osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts)
98% Extracellular
(33% Organic: collagen and ground substances)
(67% Inorganic: hydroxyapatite and other calcium minerals)
Bone classes
Long bones
Short bones
Flat bones
Irregular bones
