Q

does the 7th cervical have a bifid spinous process

A

no

19
Q

does the 7th cervical have a transverse foramen

A

yes

20
Q

4th cervical what’s different

A
  • spinous process is split into 2 (bifid process)
  • big foramin (whole)
21
Q

purpose of interverbal discs

A

shocker absorption and facilitate movement (as adds a bit of space between each bone)

22
Q

what’s the structure of the intervertebral discs

A
  • the outer casing is tough = called the annular fibrosis
  • softer centre = called the nucleus pulposus
23
Q

where does the intervertebral discs get its nutrients from

A

the vertebral bone above

24
Q

degree of flexion at the spine

A

90 degrees

25
Q

degree of extension at the spine

A

30

26
Q

degree of lateral flexion at the spine left and right

A

30

27
Q

degree of rotation at the spine - left and right

A

60

28
Q

where is the anterior longtitudinal ligament located

A

front of the vertabrae - cervical to sacurm

29
Q

where is the posterior longitudinal ligament located

A

goes down behind the vertebral body’s

30
Q

where is the intertransverse ligament located

A

connects all transverse processes & limits lateral flexion

31
Q

where is the ligament flavum ligament located

A

connects anterior surface of pedicals

32
Q

where is the interspinous ligament located

A

between each spinous process

33
Q

where is the supraspinous ligament located

A

goes over the back of the spine all the way to the top

34
Q

whats the difference between inter and intra

A

inter = inbetween
intra = within

35
Q

Sternoclavicular joint
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • Sternum (manubrium) and clavicle
  • synovial, saddle
  • elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, axial rotation of clavicle
36
Q

sternocostal joint
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • sternum (body) and costal cartilage
  • cartilaginous 1st rib, other ribs are plane/gliding
  • slight gliding (for respiration)
37
Q

costovertabral joint
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • body and the transverse processes
  • plane/gliding
  • rotation and gliding
38
Q

costotransverse joint (thoracic?)
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • ribs and transverse process??
  • plane/gliding
  • rotation and gliding
39
Q

Facet (Zygapophyseal) joint
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • joint between one superior articulating process with the inferior articulating process of the vertabrae above
  • plane
  • flexion, extension, lateral flexion and rotation
40
Q

the facet joint is mobility in each one the same

A

no, mobility varies based on location
e.g. flexion extension is less in the thoracic area then cervical and lumbar

41
Q

sacroiliac joint joint
- Bones articulating
- Type
- Movement

A
  • sacrum and illium
  • plane
  • gliding and rotations
42
Q

where is the Nuchal ligament and what is it function

A
  • from external occipital protuberance connects to supraspinous ligament (back of head at neck)
43
Q

Nuchal ligaments function

A
  • attachment point for muscles
  • limits hyperflexion of the neck
  • supports the cervical spine
