coccygeal- 4 fused

25
Q

What are intervertebral discs and function?

A

joins vertebrae by interlocking processes and ligaments
allow movement, extend spine and absorb shock

26

30
Q

Functions of ribcage?(4)

A
  1. protect organs in thoracic cavity
  2. attachment of muscles
  3. breathing
  4. support upper limbs
31

35
Q

Functions of skeleton(5)?

A

1.Movement: muscle attachment
2. Protection: internal organs
3. Produce blood in bone marrow
4.support: keep body upright
5. Stores minerals in bones: calcium phosphate/ carbonates

36
Q

Define Joint?

A

occurs where two or more bones meet

37
Q

What is immovable joint and location?

A

fibro cartilage and found in Sutures of cranium and teeth in sockets

38
Q

What is slightly movable joint and location?

A

fibro/ hyaline cartilage and found in intervertebral discs and wad in pubis symphysis

39
Q

What is synovial joint and location?

A

Free movable with joint capsule and synovial fluid
found where most bones meet

40
Q

Diagram of synovial joint(6)

A

joint capsule: Keeps joint together
Synovial membrane: Secretes synovial fluid
synovial fluid: lubricates and prevents friction
ligament: attach bone to bone
Hyaline cartilage: prevent friction and longitudinal growth
bone

41
Q

4 Types of synovial joint and explain?

A

Ball and socket: free movable in all directions: femur and humerus
Pivot: allow bone to rotate: skull on C1
Hinge: bend On one plane (elbow and knee)
Gliding: Bones glide over one another (carpals and tarsals)

42
Q

Explain osteoporosis?

A

calcium deficiency and bone porous and break easily

43
Q

Explain rickets?

A

vitamin D calcium deficiency in children. bones soft and deformed

44
Q

Explain osteoarthritis?

A

Cartilage wear away with age and bones run and nerve pinch= pain

45
Q

Explain Rheumatoid arthritis?

A

inflamed synovial membrane= too much synovial fluid: bone swell deformed= pain

46
Q

Dislocations vs sprain?

A

dislocate is bone moved out of normal position
sprain is ligament stretched beyond limit
