module 2 - bones

Question 1

scapula

Answer 1

Flat, triangular, Attachment site for many muscles.
Acromion: articulates with clavicle (top part on front view)
Glenoid cavity/fossa: (Lateral) connects with Humours

Question 2

Clavicle (long s-shaped)

Answer 2

Attaches UL to axial skeleton
Medial end – sternum. Lateral end - Acromion (scapula)

Question 3

Humours -

Answer 3

long bone
Head – Proximal, Articulates with glenoid cavity/fossa of scapula
Distal - Medial and lateral epicondyles Attachments site for muscles
Deltoid tuberosity * Lateral * Deltoid muscle

Question 4

radius

Answer 4

forearm, lateral.
Proximal: head Articulates with humerus (elbow joint) Ulna (proximal radio-ulnar joint)
Distal: Articulates with Ulna (distal radio-ulnar joint) - Carpals (wrist joint)
Radial tuberosity (Proximal) shaft * Muscle attachment for biceps brachii

Question 5

ulna

Answer 5

Forearm, medial
Proximal & posterior * Olecranon process (4) * Muscle attachment for triceps brachii.
Trochlear notch (5) * Articulates with humerus (elbow)
Distal – Head, Articulates with radius (distal radio-ulnar joint)

Question 6

wrist

Answer 6

carpals. 8x short bones; two rows. Like knuckle bones the game
scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and hamate

Question 7

pelvic bone

Answer 7

Ilium posterior, ischium inferior and pubis anterior.
Acetabulum – Lateral, femur (hip joint)
Attachments gluteal (posterior), iliopsoas (anterior), and hamstrings (inferior).
Pubic synthesis fuses the two pelvic bones together.

Question 8

femur

Answer 8

Proximal: Head, Articulates with acetabulum of hip bone
Distal: Medial and lateral condyles, Articulates with tibia (knee joint)
Gluteal tuberosity, Posterior, attachment Gluteus maximus

Question 9

patella

Answer 9

Anterior, sesamoid bone
Proximal: Quadriceps tendon
Distal: Patellar ligament, also attaches to Tibial tuberosity
Articulates with femur, Protects anterior aspect of knee joint, Most stable in flexion

Question 10

tibia

Answer 10

Medial, long bone, large * Weight bearing
Proximal: Tibial plateau * Articulates with femoral condyles (knee joint)
Distal: Medial malleolus * Articulates with Talus (tarsal bone) (ankle joint)
Tibial tuberosity * Attachment site for patellar ligament

Question 11

fibula

Answer 11

Lateral, long bone * Non-weightbearing * Not part of knee joint – doesn’t articulate with femur
Proximal: Head * Articulates with tibia
Distal: Lateral malleolus * Articulates with talus (tarsal bone)(ankle joint

Question 12

Interosseous membrane

Answer 12

bit in-between the two bones. Connective tissue.

Question 13

tarsals

Answer 13

7 bones
Ankle (talus), heel (calcaneus)
Intertarsal joints, tarsometatarsal joints

Question 14

metatarsals

Answer 14

With tarsals form the “foot proper”
5x long bones
Intermetatarsal joints, Metatarsophalangeal joints

Question 15

phalanges

Answer 15

Great toe (I) = 2 phalanges
Toes (II-V) = 3 phalanges
Interphalangeal joints (PIP, DIP, IP)
