Review Flashcards
All bones are covered by
periosteum
movement that reduces angle, usually toward body
flexion
movement that increases angle, usually away from body
extension
end of a bone; shaft of a bone
epiphysis; diaphysis
basic structural unit of bone
osteon
most abundant cartilage, covers ends of long bones, firm but springy
hyaline cartilage
strong stretchable cartilage found on external ear and epiglottis
elastic cartilage
strong cartilaginous cartilage that makes up discs in joints
fibrocartilage
4 paired arteries that go from aorta to head
common carotids, vertebral, thyrocervical, costocervical
3 branches of aortic arch
brachiocephalic (right), left common carotid, left subclavian
supply blood to heart muscle
coronary arteries
lymph from lower body drains in this “pool” before ascending to the venous angle
cisterna chyli
blockage of lymph flow resulting in swelling due to trapped fluid
lymphedema
procedure that limits surgery and number of lymph nodes removed in breast cancers
sentinel node breast therapy
wrist flexors and extensors work together to stabilize the wrist during finger movements…this is an example of
synergists
excess muscle tone
hypertonic
loss of muscle tone
flaccid
components of a synovial joint
articular cartilage, capsule, joint cavity, synovial membrane, fluid
skull sutures are this type of joint
fibrous joint
type of joint found in pubic symphysis, between lumbar vertebrae
cartilagenous joint
the hip is this type of joint
synovial joint
axis and atlas “yes and no” motions are this type of joint
pivot
lateral movement of the fingers would be this type of joint
condyloid
small bones in the wrist are this type of joint
ellipsoid
wear and tear inflammatory condition
osteoarthritis
autoimmune inflammatory condition more common in women
rheumatoid arthritis
joints affected by Neisseria gonorrhoea
wrist, ankle, elbow
group of cells in the CNS
nucleus or gray matter
group of cells in PNS
ganglion
bunch of fibers in CNS
tract or white matter
bunch of fibers in PNS
nerve
dorsal root of the spine contains (blank) information while the ventral root contains (blank)
sensory; motor
a cutaneous nerve would contain (choose sensory or motor) info
sensory
how many spinal nerves are at each level
cervical 8 thoracic 12 lumbar 5 sacral 5 coccygeal 1
4 main plexuses
cervical, brachial, lumbar, sacral
sympathetic nervous system cells originate in
lateral horn T1-L2
3 possible paths fibers can take in sympathetic trunk
- synapse with another neuron at the same level
- ascend or descend in trunk to synapse at another ganglion
- pass through trunk and ganglion without synapsing to form a splanchnic nerve
surgery to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
surgical sympathectomy
spinothalamic pathway is (ascending or descending) while the corticospinal tract is…
ascending; decsending
what runs through the superior orbital fissure
lacrimal nerve, frontal nerve, trochlear nerve, superior division of oculomotor, nasociliary branch of opthalmic nerve, inferior division of oculomotor nerve, abducens nerve
lambdoid suture
between occipital and parietal bones
internal carotid artery divides right above this part of the sphenoid bone
clinoid process
head trauma to this bone can cause you to lose your sense of smell
ethmoid
receptor cells for eyes and ears
eye- rods and cones of retina
ear- hair cells
near sighted people have a focal point that falls (blank) the retina, while far sighted people have a focal point that falls (blank) the retina
in front of; behind
lens bulginess determines
accomodation
nerve that passes through internal auditory meatus
facial
amount of each type of vertebrae
7 cervical, 12 thoracacic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, 4 coccygeal
7 bones that form the orbit
frontal, ethmoid, lacrimal, maxilla, sphenoid, palatine, zygomatic
origin of back and other muscles (vertebra feature)
spinous process and transverse process
small pillars projecting from vertebra body
pedicles
flat planes that fuse in median plane
laminae
2 pedicles + 2 laminae make up
vertebral arch
where spinal cord comes through
vertebral foramen
articulates with vertebra above and below
superior and inferior articular facets
the dens is part of
C2
8 branches of the external carotid
superior thyroid artery, ascending phayrngeal artery, lingual artery, facial artery, occipital artery, posterior auricular artery, maxillary artery, superficial temporal artery
branches of internal carotid
opthalmic artery, anterior cerebral artery, middle cerebral artery, posterior communicating artery
