Q

Q

mastoid process

A

A protruding bony area in the lower part of the skull that is located behind the ear in humans and many other vertebrates and serves as a site of muscle attachment. The mastoid process contains small air-filled cavities called mastoid cells that communicate with the middle ear.

Q

transverse foramen

A

pierces the transverse processes of the seven cervical vertebrae. In the upper six vertebrae, the foramen gives passage to the vertebral artery, vertebral vein, and a plexus of sympathetic nerves. The seventh foramen lacks the artery, but contains the vein and sympathetic nerves.

Q

anterior longitudinal ligament

A

attaches to the front of each vertebra. this ligament runs up and down the spine. very strong and very long. brakes against hyperextension of the spine.

26
Q

rectus abdominis

A

controls tilt of pelvis flattening lower back, therefore making the errector spinae a more effective extensor of the spine and the hip flexors (particularly the iliopsoas) more effective in raising the legs. 3 seperate tendinous intersections are what gives the appearance of the “six pack”-seperate muscles- when there is really 1 muscle

27
Q

external obliques O I A

A

O-border of lower 8 ribs
I-Anterior half of crest of ilium, crest of pubis, and linea alba (fascia of rectus abdominus
***A-Spinal flexion, lateral flexion to both sides and lateral rotation to both sides

28
Q

internal obliques O I A

A

O-Thoracocolumbar fascia, 2/3 of iliac crest, Inguinal ligament
I- ribs 9-12, cartilages of ribs 7-9 and linea alba
***A- spinal flexion, lateral flexion to both sides and lateral rotation to both sides

29
Q

transverse abdominis

A

Deepest muscle of abdominal wall. Fibers run horizontally. Compresses contents of abdomen -cinch belt of the waist

29
Q

iliopsoas O I A

A

O- T12-L5
I-lesser trochanter of femur
A-main flexor of femur at hip joint, especially above 90 degrees. flexion of trunk at hip joint. maintains normal lumbar curve

30
Q

greater trochanter

A

very large projection

31
Q

lesser trochanter

A

a small rounded projection

32
Q

bursae

A

fluid filled sacs, prevents friction or things rubbing together

33
Q

iliacus

A

iliacus and psoas major are generally referred to as the iliopsoas muscle because of their common inserton and action. iliacus, however, is confirmed to the pelvis, while psoas travels up to T12

34
Q

quadratus lumborum O I A nickname

A

O- posterior iliac crest
I- 12th rib and transverse processed of L 1-4
A- Raises hip. lateral flexion of trunk
nickname-hip hiker

35
Q

erector spine group

A

located on each side of the vertebral column

divided into three vertical columns of muscle, iliocstalis, longissimus, and ilicostalis

36
Q

aplomb-definition

A

dancer’s stance;oise, assurance, confidence’ perpendicularity

37
Q

function of spine

A

support weight of head, the rib cage, and the shoulder girdle, while transverring this weight to the pelvis

38
Q

what makes a spine stronger?

A

lengthening the spine and reducing the curves makes for a stronger spine, as it is in the transition areas where one curve flows into the next that the spine is most vulnerable to injury. All curves are interdependent- one affects the other.

39
Q

sternocleidomastoid muscle O I A

A

O-sternum and clavicle; I- mastoid process; A-rotates head to opposite side

40
Q

building blocks in spine

A

placement. “pull up” is a lengthening of the spine, an elongation of the body which raises the dancer’s center of gravity and contributes to mobility

41
Q

gravity

A

resist to make body grow taller

42
Q

think:

A

“move bones” not muscles. avoids excessive contraction of muscle groups

43
Q

vertebral column

A

3 curves, sometimes the curve formed by the sacrum and coccyz are considered a fourth curve

44
Q

craniovertebral joints

A

NO DISC between these two vertebrae (C1 and C2)

45
Q

Vertebral Foramen

A

big hole all of the nerves go through, blood vessels

46
Q

spinous process

A

what you feel up and down back, a projection, the bones protruding, back projection

47
Q

transverse process

A

side to side, projection that stick out on sides. side projection

48
Q

body

A

white area, bone

49
Q

superior articular facet

A

where the process is flattened off, end of process, connects with bone above or below, can with rib cage

50
Q

superior articular process

A

projection, bone, spinous process-similar

51
Q

facet for rib articulation

A

where the transverse connects with the rib cage

52
Q

nucleus pulposus

A

inner part of disc, nucleus filled with fluid

53
Q

annulus fibrus

A

outer rim of disc, rough, fibrous shell

54
Q

sacroilliac joint

A

where pelvis meets sacrum, butt bone

55
Q

transverse abdominis A

A

O- thoracocolumbar fascia anterior 3/4 of iliac crest, inguinal ligament, ribs 7-12
I-linea alba and crest of pubis
***A- forced expiration by pulling abdominal wall inward (constriction of abdominal wall and contents), spinal stabilization

56
Q

rectus abdominis O I A

A
  • **O-Crest of pubis
  • **I-Cartilage of ribs 5-7 (and xiphoid process)
  • **A- spinal flexion
57
Q

trapezius

A

emotional muscle

58
Q

lordosis

A

swayack
accentuated lumbar curavture
can also occur in cervical area, head thrusts forward
hyperextension of knees, “s” curve of the body, lots of problems
try liftig up in the front of the body/pelvis

59
Q

kyphosis

A

hunchback

dorsally exagerated thoracic curvature

60
Q

scoliosis

A

“C” or “S” lateral curvature with or without roarotation

61
Q

spondylolisthesis

A

1 vertebra slips anteriorly on another, forward

62
Q

A

a painful rupture of the fibrocartilage of the disc between spinal vertebrae; occurs most often in the lumbar region
