25
Flexion
movement that decreases the angle
26
Extension
movement that increases the angle
27
Abduction
moving away from the median sagittal plane
28
Adduction
moving towards the median sagittal plane
29
Rotation
moving around a central axis of body
30
Pronation
motion of the arms when the thumb points down, palm points posteriorly
31
Supination
motion of making the hand in the anatomical position
32
Eversion
the foot faces outward away from the midline, toes points outwards
33
Inversion
the foot faces inwards towards the midline, toes points inwards
34
Plantarflexion
toes points down, ballet pointed toes
35
Dorsiflexion
toes points up
36
Circumduction
movement of limb in a circular or cone shape, ex: arm circles
37
Opposition
movement of the thumb to touch each finger tips
38
Compact Bone
type of bone tissue that is the outer most layer
39
Cancellous (Spongy) Bone
type of bone tissue that is located internal to the compact bone
40
Trabeculae
tissue making bands and rods within the bone, the space within is filled with red marrow, producing red blood cell (looks like webs)
41
Periosteum
a collective tissue that surrounds the bone that the tendon of muscles are attach to
42
Osteons
cylindrical vasular tunnels formed by osteoclast-rich tissues that is responsible for the strength of the bone
43
Haversion Canal
at the center of each osteon that runs longitudinally, carrying nerves and blood vessels
44
Nutrient Artery
supplies large bones (arms, forearms, thighs, legs) with nutrients, enters the bone through the nutrient foramen
45
Diaphysis
shaft of the bone, made up for compact bone that surrounds the Medullary (marrow) Cavity
46
Medullary (marrow) Cavity
inside the diaphysis, filled with fatty yellow marrow
47
Epiphysis
each end of the bone; some bones has multiple epiphysis, long bones of fingers and toes only have 1
48
Metaphysis
made of trabeculae that separates the epiphysis and diaphysis
49
Epiphyseal (Growth) plate
plate between the epiphysis and metaphysis
50
Ossification
the process which the epiphyseal plate is fused together, growth in that bone stops
51
Axial Skeleton
the part of the skeleton that contains the skull, vertebral column, sacrum, coccyx, and thoracic cage; mainly the middle part of the body
52
Appendicular Skeleton
the part of the skeleton that contains the pectoral girdle, upper and lower limb bones, and pelvic girdle; anything that isn't the axial skeleton
53
Fibrous Joints
one type of joint that has very little mobility, joined by fibrous connective tissues
54
Suture
one type of fibrous joint, the lines that we see and is found in the skull
55
Syndesmosis
one type of fibrous joint, that are connect by short collagen ligament, found in the long bone of the limbs connecting the two bones and at the end
56
Gomphosis
one type of fibrous joint, connects that teeth and the bone of the face
57
Cartilaginous Joints
one type of joint that are entire joined by cartilage
58
Synchondrosis
one type of cartilaginous joints that are connected by the hyaline cartilage that is found between the metaphysis and epiphysis of a growing bone
59
Symphysis
one type of cartilaginous joints that are connected by a pad of fibrocartilage that doesn't have much movement, they are found in the pubic symphysis of the pelvis and the interverebral discs
60
Synovial Joints
one type of of joint that is extremely mobile and has a joint cavity, unlike the other two joint
61
Articular Cartilage
the surface of the adjacent bone that are covered with a layer of hyaline cartilage
62
Joint Capsule
the articular capsule and the spaces in between them that are enclosed
63
Capsular Ligament
the external part of the capsule that is composed of elastic fibers stretching from one bone to another
64
Synovial Membrane
the internal part of the capsule that secretes a lubricating synovial fluid
65
Bursa
lubricating device that cushions a tendon as it crosses over the capsular ligament
66
Articular Disc
attached to the fibrous joint capsule, in between the two articular surfaces
