The clavicle fails to rotate after 90 degrees of shoulder flexion, Which movement would most probably not be completed?
a. scapular adduction
b. humeral external rotation
c. humeral internal rotation
d. scapular upward rotation

e. AOTA
Which of the following is prevented by the coracoacromial ligament?
a. Upward translation of the humeral head
b. External rotation
c. Downward translation of the humeral head
d. Inferior subluxation
What is the limitation of the inferior glenohumeral ligament?
a. Anterior translation
b. Superior translation
c. Posterior translation
d. Inferior translation
e. AOTA
What does inferior glenohumeral ligament limit?
A. Anterior translation
B. posterior translation
C. Inferior translation
D. AOTA
- Which of the following provide Negative translatory force?
I. Supraspinatus
II. Deltoids
III. Infraspinatus
IV. Subscapularis
V. Teres Minor
a. I, III and V
b. I, II, IV and V
c. I and II only
d. III, IV and V
e. NOTA
- A person is carrying a 12-kilogram bag with one hand. Which of the following is/are responsible for keeping the humeral head apposed to the glenoid cavity
a. Biceps
b. All of these
c. Teres Minoor
d. Deltoid
e. Triceps
- Which statements are correct about abduction of the arm at shoulder?
I. High translatory force of the deltoid may cause jamming of the humeral head at the coracoacromial arch, thus ITS muscle need to contract simultaneously to provide inferior translator force to complete shoulder abduction
II. Abduction is produced by means of the deltoid and supraspinatus muscles working together
III. External rotation of the humerus accompanies complete abduction
IV. Several muscles acts as force couple to attain shoulder abduction
a. I, II and III
b. I and III
c. II and IV
d. IV only
e. AOTA
- Which of the following statements correctly describe abduction of the arm at the shoulder?
I. The rotator cuff muscles depress the head of the humerus during shoulder abduction to prevent impingement of the humerus on the acromion
II. Internal rotation of the humerus accompanies complete
III. Abduction is produced by means of the deltoid and supraspinatus muscles working together.
IV. External rotation of the humerus accompanies complete abduction.
V. Abduction is more powerful in the position of external rotation than in the position of internal rotation
a. I, II, III and IV
b. I, II, and IV
c. I, III, IV, and V
d. I, IV, and V
- The trapezius and serratus anterior:
a. Act synergistically in abduction
b. Act as synergists in upward rotation and antagonists in protraction and retraction
c. Act as synergists in retraction and antagonists in upward and downward rotation
d. Act as synergists in upward rotation and antagonists in depression
In what movement of the scapula are the upper and lower trapezius and Serratus Anterior muscles synergists:
a. Scapular retraction
b. Upward rotation
c. Scapular protraction
d. Scapular elevation
- Which of the following statements do NOT apply to elbow flexion range of motion?
a. It has hard end-feel on contact of muscles between arm and forearm.
b. The contact of the muscles between the forearm and arm can stop the motion
c. The subjects with little soft-tissue have a hard end-feel
d. The normal variation is between 120 to 160 degrees
- Elbow flexor tested when the forearm is supinated.
a. Pronator teres
b. Biceps brachii
c. Brachialis
d. Brachioradialis
e. Anconeus
- Contraction of the brachioradialis during resisted elbow flexion exemplifies what class of lever?
a. Class I
b. Class II
c. Class III
d. NOTA
- The 50-year-old female patient presented with an R-U fracture (fracture of both the radius and ulnar). ROM exercises are very important since this forearm movement may be affected which may lead to difficult hand function. Which forearm movements are these?
a. Wrist DF and PF
b. Pronation-supination
c. Flexion-extension
d. Radial and ulnar deviation
- The following applies to radio-ulnar articulation, EXCEPT the:
a. proximal joint lies within the capsule of the elbow joint.
b. axis of motion is represented proximally by a line through the center of head of the ulna and distally through the center of the head of the radius.
c. radius rotate in relation to the ulna due to the connection between them.
d. one degree of freedom allows pronation and supination only.
