Q

which action has more muscles associated with it in the proximal forelimb? why?

A

flexion

flexion is used to bring the leg backward on the ground –> working with whole body weight

extension is used to swing leg forward –> only working with weight of limb

38
Q

what is lameness?

A

abnormal limb movements

39
Q

what type of motion do muscles produce at joints?

A

angular motion

40
Q

what are the fulcrums of the MSK?

41
Q

what are the levers of the MSK?

42
Q

what is torque?

A

the tendency of a force to cause an object to rotate around a certain axis

43
Q

what are the external forces acting on the MSK?

A

gravity, ground reaction forces, friction

44
Q

do muscle contractions always produce angular motion? why or why not?

A

no

they can resist external forces or brake to control the rotation at a joint

45
Q

what is the out-lever?

A

where the external force and torque are applied

46
Q

what is the in-lever?

A

where the internal (muscle) force and torque are applied

47
Q

what is a first class lever? what is an example of this in the body?

A

fulcrum with weight on either side (teeter totter)

cranial side of atlantooccipital joint

48
Q

what is a second class lever? what is an example of this in the body?

A

fulcrum on one side, external forces acting right beside it, and muscle forces acting beside the external forces (wheelbarrow)

distal limb joints

49
Q

what is a third class lever? what is an example of this in the body?

A

fulcrum on one side, internal force beside that, and external force beside internal force (holding barbell)

biceps in forelimb

50
Q

what is the most common lever class in the MSK system?

A

third class

51
Q

how do muscles resist torque?

A

increasing muscle force or increasing lever arm

52
Q

how do we define the flexor surface?

A

use the angle that is already less than 180 degrees based on neutral position of the two bones in the joint
