Test 3 Flashcards
The inflammation of bursa by Gerdy’s tubercle
is observed in people with tightness of the IT band
The rectus femoris has
its origin at the inferior iliac spine
The peroneus longus
“all of the above”
provides important support for the transverse arch, tendon runs around the lateral malleolus, inserts on the first cuneifrom, provides suspensory support from above for the lateral longitudinal arch
Which of the following muscles is frequently used in repair of the ACL
Semitendinosus
Lombard’s paradox is called a paradox because
antagonistic muscles are usually inhibited when the prime mover is contracting
Nitric oxide
causes vasodilation
In rank order the muscle that would contribute the most in speed of running or in powerful jumping movement would be
gluteal muscles, quadriceps, triceps surae
The acetabular labrum
deepens the socket portion of the joint
A ballistic hypertension of the knee frequently:
stretches the anterior cruciate ligament
A downward tilt of the pelvis
tight and shortened psoas
The tibial plateau
has poor regenerative capacity if damaged
A prime mover for eversion of the foot is:
proneus longus
The prime action of the gluteus maximum is
extension at the hip
Plantar fasciitis usually occurs
when the calcaneo-navicular is stretched
Suspension for the lateral longitudinal arch is provided by
peroneus longus
The keystone of the medial longitudinal arch is
the talus
During the swing phase of running
the tibias anterior contracts concentrically
Which of the following muscles as its insertion on the medial surface of the first cuneiform and first metatarsal
peroneus longus
Paralysis of the [blank] may lead to a drop foot during the swing phase
tibialis anterior
Standing results in what percentage of the weight of the body to be distributed to the calcaneous
50
Give the origin of biceps femoris
ischial tuberosity
Give the insertion of peroneus longus
1st cuneiform
Inflammation of the tibial tuberosity
is due to excessive force of the quadriceps pulling on a center tibial tuberosity prior to puberty
A ballistic movement at the ankle can cause a fracture at the fifth metatarsal. This movement is:
inversion
The menisci of the knee
“all of the above”
increase the surface area between the tibia and femur, decrease the friction between the tibia and femur, cause the femur and tibia to “seat” more in the middle of the joint, decrease compressive forces between the femur and tibia
A vasectomy occurs when
the vas deference is ligated
Leydig cells produce
testosterone
Menstruation is stimulated by
When are the corpus leuteum degenerates
The finger-like projections at the opening of the upper end of the oviduct are known as the
fimbriae
Endometriosis
A proliferation of the functionalism layer not only in the uterus but sometimes in the abdominal cavity
The prostate is typically examined during a physical exam by
Palpitation of the prostate through the anal canal
Chlamydial infection in women while easily treated with tetracycline may result in
scarring of the fallopian tubes at the isthmus of the fallopian tubes
After ovulation, the ruptured follicle
differentiates into a temporary endocrine gland
An ectopic pregnancy typically occurs
in the fallopian tubes
A pap smear takes cells from
cervix
A weakness of this muscle is usually associated with lateral movement of the patella during knee flexion and extension. This muscle is:
vastus medialis
The dartos muscle
causes the skin of the scrotum to pucker
The homologous structure in a female to the corpus cavernosa is the
clitoris
By what approximate fold increase in mass does the uterus experience during full term pregnancy
25 times
How does the uterus protect itself from infection during periods of the menstrual cycle other than the ovulatory phase?
Mucus plug, prevents entry into the cervix to stop infection from reaching uterus
What is produced by the serotoli cells
androgen-binding proteins and enables spermatogenesis, initiate and regulate sperm production
What is produced by the Bulbourethral gland
secretes a clear fluid rich in mucoproteins that helps lubricate the distal urethra
What is benign hyperplasia of the prostate
noncancerous enlargement of prostate which causes frequent urination (due to pressure prostate puts on bladder) and difficulty urinating (due to pressure on prostatic urethra)
