Pectoral, Pelvic, Limb & Joints Test Review
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Ankle Bones | Tarsus |
| Collar Bone | Clavicle |
| Fingers | Phalanges |
| Heel Bone | Calcaneus |
| Form the instep of the foot | Metatarsals |
| Kneecap | Patella |
| Shin bone | Tibia |
| Shoulder blades | Scapula |
| Sit-down bone | Ischium |
| Thigh bone | Femur |
| Toes | Phalanges |
| Upper arm | Humerus |
| Wrist bones | Carpals |
| Scapula and clavicle = | Acromioclavicular joint |
| Scapula and humerus = | Glenoid cavity |
| Humerus and ulna = | Trochlear notch |
| Humerus and radius = | Radial notch |
| Coxal bones and femur = | Acetabulum |
| What bones are in the Pectoral Girdle? | Clavicle and Scapula |
| What bones are in the Pelvic Girdle? | Coxal bones (os coxae, hip bones), ilium, ischium, pubis, sacrum, coccyx, |
| Amphiarthroses | slightly movable |
| Diarthroses | freely movable |
| Dislocation | when the normal part of a joint is shifted from it's original place, out of it's socket |
| Fibula | a long, slender bone located on the lateral side of the tibia |
| Iliac Crest | margin of the prominence of the hip bone |
| Ischial Tuberosity | the angle of the ischium (L-shaped) |
| Knee | a hinge-joint between the femur and tibia, behind the patella |
| Lateral Malleolus | the distal end of the fibula |
| Obturator Foramen | foramen located between the bodies of the pubis and ischium (large opening) |
| Pubic Symphysis/ Symphysis Pubis | the joint between the two pubic bones |
| Sacroiliac Joint | join between the sacrum and ilium |
| Sprain | results from over-stretching/tearing the connective tissues; does NOT dislocate the articular bones |
| Synarthroses | immovable joints |
| Tibia | Shin bone; larger of the two leg bones and is located on the medial side |
| Tibial Tuberosity | provides an attachment for the patellar ligament |
| Ulna | longer than the radius and overlaps the end of the humerus posteriorly |
| Ball-and-socket joint | ball-shaped; head of one bone articulates with cup-shaped socket of another |
| Condyloid joint | oval-shaped; condyle of one bone articulates with cup-shaped socket of another |
| Gliding joint | articulating surfaces are nearly flat or slightly curved |
| Hinge joint | convex surface of one bone articulates with concave surface of another |
| Pivot joint | cylindrical surface of one bone articulates with the ring of bone and ligament |
| Saddle joint | articulating surfaces have both concave and convex regions; surface of one bone fits the complementary surface of another. |
