Structure/Fxn of MSK Flashcards
Three types of joints from least to most movement
fibrous (skull,interosseus membrane), cartilaginous (intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis), synovial
synchondrosis
cartilaginous joint of hyaline cartilage (growth plate of growing long bone)
amphiarthosis vs diarthrosis
some movement, freely movable
abduction/adduction is done on what axis?
anterior-posterior
relationship b/w mobility and stability
inverse
two shapes of articulating surfaces
ovoid and sellar/hinge (uniaxilar)
types of ovoid joints
plane (biaxial), condyloid (biaxial), spheroid (multiaxial)
Purpose of ligaments? damage is called?
limit range of motion, sprain
eversion vs inversion of ankle
eversion is outward, inversion is inward
avulsion fracture
bone fragment tears away due to muscular contraction or ligament attachment (osgood schlater)
aponeurosis vs tendon
spreads out force, concentrates force
three types of contraction
concentric (shorter), eccentric (longer), isometric (no change)
three components of muscle group
protagonist, antagonist, synergist
