Unit 7 Flashcards
Describe anatomical boundaries or components of: Thorax
sternum, 12 piars of ribs and 12 pairs of vertebrae = interconnecting joints.
Describe anatomical boundaries or components of
: Thoracic cage
upper thorax bones, manbrium/sternum, first pair of ribs , body of vertebrae T1
Describe anatomical boundaries or components of: Thoracic cavity
vertebral columm, ribs, sternum, cranial/caudal aperatures, covering of the soft tissue strctures.
Describe anatomical boundaries or components of : abdomen
stomach, liver, spleen, small and large inestine, gall bladder, pancreas, kidney, bladder
Describe anatomical boundaries or components of: abdominal cavity
upper diaphragm, muscle/connective tissue that seperates it from chest cavity
upper plane of pelvic cavity
abdominal quadrants
r. upper - gall bladder, kidney (r), pancreas, stomach, small/large intestine, adrenal gland (r).
l. upper - spleen, liver, stomach, pancreas, large/small intestine, adrenal gland (L)/kidney.
r + l lower - appendix, large + small intestine and bladder .
Name the top row of the abdomial quadrant
hypochondriac R, epigastric, hypochondriac L
Name middle row of the abdominal quadrant
lumbar R, Umbilical region, lumbar L
Name the bottom row of the abdominal quadrant
inguinial region R, oubic, inguinial region L
Use precise anatomical location to describe … heart
The heart is posterior to your chest under neath, posterior to the sternum and to the left - rib case protects it.
Use precise anatomical location to describe: lungs
In the thorax, anterior to the diaphragm
Use precise anatomical location to describe: liver
The liver is in the upper right portion of the abdominal cavity, it is inferior to the diaphragm and superficial from the stomach and right kidney and intestines
Use precise anatomical location to describe: stomach
superior to the abdomen on the lft side of the body
Use precise anatomical location to describe: duodenum
first part of the small intestint - connects stomach to intestine walls
Use precise anatomical location to describe: ascending colin
runs superiorly to the right side of the abdomen from the right iliac fossa to the right lobe of the liver
Use precise anatomical location to describe: transverse colon
part of the contiuiation of the right dorsal colon - begins at the 17th.18th thoaraic vertebrae then passes from right to left, cranial to the cranial messentic artery
Use precise anatomical location to describe: descending colon
the lateral border of the left kidney down vertcally and slightly towards the midline in the groove between the quadratic lombordum and iliac crest.
Use precise anatomical location to describe: Spleen
upper far left of the abs, left of stomach protexged by ribcage
Use precise anatomical location to describe: pancreas
across back of belly and behind the stomach
Use precise anatomical location to describe: the right kidney
lower than the left kidney, below the diaphragm and posterior to the spleen.
State the anatomical function of: superior and inferior articular facets of the head
it articulates with the costal cartilage
State the anatomical function of: articular part of the tubercle
articulates with the transverse process of the vertebrae
State the anatomical function of: nonarticular part of the tubercle
articulates with the costotransverse ligament
State the anatomical function of: the costal articular site
allows ribs to articulate with the sternum.
State the anatomical function of: costal groove
protection and neuromuscular path to follow
Identify the unique functions of: the first rib
has one articulating surface, and 2 costal facets.
It is the smallest and widest and sharpest rib.
Identify the unique functions of: the second rib
thin and long and has a tuberosity on the superior side for the serratus anterior to attach to.
Identify the unique functions of: the tenth rib
one facet on the head and articulates with a single vertebra. uses rib 7 cartilage to cirectly join to the sternum.
Identify the unique functions of: the twelfth rib
no neck, short and articulates with only single vertebrae not the sternum.
unique feature of: cervical vertebrae
bifid spinous process - transverse process has a foarmen in each.
unique feature of: thoracic vertebrae
slender spine - facets on both sides that articulates with the tubercles of the ribs.
unique feature of: lumbar vertebrea
spinous process is short and thick.
unique feature of: sacral vertebrae
inverted triangle bone that is concaved anteriorly and convened posteriorly.
unique feature of: coccygeal vertebrae
concave shaped curve
