Q

functions of skeletal system

A
  • protection of vital organs
  • provided framework
  • allow for movement
  • red blood cells produced in long bones
  • storage of vitamins and minerals
23
Q

types of bones

A

long - femur, humerus
short - tarsles and carpels
flat bone - cranium, scapula
irregular bone - vertebrae
sesamoid bones - patella

24
Q

uni-axil, bi-axil and tri-axil joints

A

uni-axil - hinge, pivot
bi-axil - condyloid, gliding, saddle
tri-axil- ball and socket

25
Q

sensor motor neurons

A
  1. Brain sends signal
  2. Electrical impulse travels along spinal cord to motor neuron (nerve)
  3. Impulse travels along chain of neurons (neural chain)
  4. Message arrives at muscle fibres
  5. Muscle fibres are stimulated to contract
26
Q

agonist

A

muscle creating movement

27
Q

antagonist

A

muscle relaxing

28
Q

stabiliser

A

muscle that holds parts in place and prevent you from being damaged while movers are moving you

29
Q

movers

A

big muscles that move body parts

30
Q

muscle functions

A

movement - contract and relax, muscles work in pairs this is called reciprocal inhibition.
- posture
- production of body heat

31
Q

muscle types

A

smooth - found in blood vessels and intestinal walls, internal and involuntary.
cardiac - only found in wall of the heart. involuntary
skeletal - external, voluntary.

32
Q

uni, bi and multi pennate

A

UNIPENNATE - fibres on one side of a tendon
BIPENNATE - fibres on both side of a tendon
MULTIPENNATE - fibres branch out from a number of tendons

33
Q

Microscopic muscle contraction

A

-myofibrils are made up of tiny protein structures called filaments
-one is a thick filament called MYOSIN (WHICH HAS CROSS BRIDGES)
-two is a thin filament called ACTIN

  • H ZONE can shorten or even disappear
    -The ACTIN filaments slide over the MYOSIN filaments to create movement.
34
Q

microscopic contraction steps

A
  1. Electrical impulse arrives at the relaxed muscle via the CNS
  2. Calcium is released which bonds the cross bridges to the ACTIN
  3. Cross bridges begin to pull the ACTIN filaments towards middle
  4. Muscle contracts and shortens
35
Q

tendons

A

connects muscle to bone

36
Q

types of muscle contractions

A
  1. ISOINERTIAL - load or resistance against the muscle is constant throughout the motion,
  2. CONCENTRIC – the muscle length decreases
  3. ECCENTRIC – the muscle length increases.
  4. ISOMETRIC – the muscle length remains unchanged (gripping a racquet handle)
  5. ISOKINETIC – the resistance changes according to joint angle (requires special machines).
37
Q

sports injuries - sprain

A

sprain (ligament)
classification - acute, indirect, soft tissue
causes - excessive movement forcing joint past range
symptoms - immediate pain, swelling, restricted movement
rehab - muscle conditioning, strapping

38
Q

sports injuries - dislocation

A

shoulder dislocation -
classification - direct, acute
causes - twist, fall, direct blow
symptoms - swollen, physically out of place
rehab - Immobilise the injured part, Apply RICER, have no unnecessary movement, Seek medical assistance

39
Q

sports injuries - concussion

A

concussion
classification - direct
causes - bump to the head
symptoms - nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, headache
rehab - rest, slowly increase physical activity

40
Q

sports injuries - strains

A

strain (hamstring) -
classification - indirect
causes - over stretching, sudden change in direction
symptoms - muscle pain, spasm, sore to touch
rehab - ricer

  • ricer (decreasing blood flow to the injury)
41
Q

prevention of injuries

A

conditioning (flexibility and strength), equipment maintenance, nutrition, warm up and cool down

42
Q

fusiform muscles

A

long and thin. Contract rapidly, low force. Fibres run length of muscle, same direction as tendon. Eg: bicep

43
Q

How do joints create movement

A

results from contraction or relaxation of the muscles that are attached to the bones on either side of the joint

44
Q

shoulder vs hip

A

Similar in that both ball and socket. Different in that shoulder is more moveable and flexible. Hip is deeper as it is weight-bearing.

45
Q

reciprocal inhabition

A

muscles work in pairs. Agonist contracts and antagonist must relax

46
Q

sarcomere

A

basic contracting unit of muscle cell consists of actin and myosin filaments

47
Q

flexion and extension

A

flexion - angle decreases at a joint
extension - angle increases at a joint

48
Q

dorsic and plantar flexion

A

dorsic flexion - foot moves towards shin
plantar flexion - foot moves away from shin

49
Q

abduction and adduction

A

abduction - moves away from midline
adduction - moves towards midline

50
Q

supination and pronation

A

supination - twisting (palm up)
pronation - twisting (palm down)

51
Q

eversion and inversion

A

eversion - sole outward
inversion - sole inward

52
Q

elevation and depression

A

elevation - shoulder girdle moves towards head
depression - shoulder girdle moves away from head

53
Q

rotation and circumduction

A

rotation - movement around central axis
circumduction - body moves in a cone shape

54
Q

fast and slow twitch

A

FAST TWITCH - contract rapidly, contract with greater force, have a large fibre diameter.
SLOW TWITCH - contract slowly with less force, have an increased capacity to use oxygen, have the capacity to contract for longer time periods.
