Q

The following are true about stance phase except:

a) initiated by heel strike
b) double limb support is longer than single limb support
c) foot flat precedes single stance support
d) midstance is followed by heel off
A

B

This is the order for the stance phase: heel strike (double support), foot flat (single), midstance (single), heel off (single), toe off (double). I agree with the answer. Try it! Heel strike and toe off are unstable phases.

180
Q

True of swing phase

a) starts with heel off
b) major part of normal gait
c) anterior leg plays a major part
d) posterior leg plays a major part
A

C

This is the order for the swing phase: Acceleration, Midswing, Deceleration. This is 40% of the gait. Stance phase is 60% of the whole gait phase. This leaves us C or D. This is debatable. We know that the leg in the swing phase is lagging, so that the anterior leg plays a major part in supporting the swinging leg. But we can also say that the posterior leg play a major part in the swinging process itself. If this is the exact phrasing of the question, I’ll go for D.

181

a) T1-T2
b) T4-T9

187
Q

The spinal cord terminates at which vertebra in newborns

a) L1-L2 
b) L2-L3
c) L3-L4 
d) L4-L5

C

Spine rests at L3-L4 in newborns. It rests at L1-L2 at puberty. This change occurs because the spinal cord grows slower than the vertebra

188
Q

What is the first secondary curvature of the spine?

a) Cervical lordosis
b) Thoracic kyphosis
c) Lumbar lordosis
d) Sacral kyphosis
A

A

You just have to remember that the secondary curvature is always lordosis. My thoughts here is that this may be due to the fact that the fetus, in a fetal position, is kyphotic. So the first is cervical lordosis while the second is lumbar lordosis

189
Q

Which type of joint is not found in the spine?

a) Diarthrodial
b) Syndesmosis

A

Amphiarthrosis is a joint wherein the surfaces are connected by fibrocartilage. These are the intervertebral discs.
