Maintaining a neutral spine and lifting with the legs reduces what type of force between adjacent vertebrae?
A. Compression
B. Distraction
C. Shear (Translation)
D. Concentric
C. Shear (Translation)
Hypotonia
decreased tone throughout the body
What structure provides a flexible cushion between adjacent vertebrae, absorbing axial compression and allowing for some motion?
A. Transverse Process
B. Thoracolumbar Fascia
C. Intervertebral Disc
D. Synovial Capsule
C. Intervertebral Disc

A. Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbrical, Sacral, Coccygeal
B. Lumbar, Sacral, Cervix, Coccygeal, Thoracic
D. Sacral, Cocci, Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar
E. Coccygeal, Sacral, Lumbar, Cervical, Thoracic
E. Coccygeal, Sacral, Lumbar, Cervical, Thoracic
How many degrees is typical cervical flexion?
45-50 Degrees
Hypertonia
Increased muscle tone
What does the appendicular skeleton consist of?
Clavicle
Scapula
Pelvis
Lower and Upper Extremities
Weight-Shifting
Moving the weight of the body from one leg to the other
Facilitates purposeful movement of the body
Stagger Stance
One foot slightly in front of the other and the hips and knees somewhat flexed
Position maintains a more neutral pelvis and reduces the strain on the spine by allowing functional weight-shifting
Name the 8 Cranial Bones
True/False
Contraction of the rectus abdominis increases intra-abdominal pressure, which destabilizes the lumbar spine for lifting.
False
Contraction of the rectus abdominis increases intra-abdominal pressure, which stabilizes the lumbar spine for lifting.
Which of the following muscles is the primary flexor of the trunk?
A. Rectus Abdominis
B. External Oblique
C. Erector Spinae
D. Quadratus Lumborum
A. Rectus Abdominis
