rotation 50%

18
Q

Functional structures of Spine

A

protects the spinal cord stiffens the body motion for the human skeleton transferring body weight in walking and standing

19
Q

What is the specific function of the intervertebral foramen

A

Transmitting Peripheral Nerves

20
Q

What is the specific function of the transverse process and lamina

A

attaching muscles and articulating ribs

21
Q

Where is the location of the spinal foramen

A

Located anterior of the bodies of the spine

22
Q

What important structure passes through the spinal foramen?

A

Spinal Coed

23
Q

What major cervical muscles are associated with cranial nerve 11, and produced contralateral rotation

A

sternocleidomastoid and upper trapezius - integrated to vision & hearing

24
Q

Factors that contribute to safe lifting techniques that protects the spine

A

Keeps spine nuetral

25
Q

pedicles

A

everything attatches to them

26
Q

Facet Joint

A

The facet joints hold the bones of the spine together and help protect the spinal cord.

Superior + Inferior Facets + Capsules + synovial membrane +

27
Q

Stinosis of intervertbral foramen

A

spinal stinosis
