the feature on the superior end of the sternum is the ___________ and that on the inferior end is the ___________ _______________ manubrium; xiphoid process
facets on the ribs articulate with facets on the thoracic vertebrae to form a specific type of synovial joint called a _________ joint. based on the degree of movement possible these are classified as _____________ joints plane; diarthrotic
the muscles between adjacent ribs that act to depress the ribs are the ___________ ____________ internal intercostals
the muscle of the abdominal region that originates on the lower 6 ribs and iliac crest is the __________ _________. the fibers of this muscle are oriented horizontally. transversus abdominis
a narrow, ridge-like projection of a bone is called a __________. on the illium, this feature serves as the insertion for the external oblique muscle. crest
the muscle that seperates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity is the ________ diaphragm
thoracic vertebrae are the only vertebrae with _______ facets for ribs costal
the muscle of the abdominal regoin that originates on the lower 8 ribs and acts to compress the abdomen is the _________ _________. the fibers of this muscle are oriented at an angle external oblique
the atlas makes a __________ type of synovial joint with the occipital bone condylar
the errector spinae consists of three muscle groups: the lateral or ______________ group, the intermediate or ___________, and the medial or _________ group. all have their origin _________ their insertion so as to maintain upright posture, iliocostal; longissimus; spinalis; below
the sternum and first rib are held together by _________ cartilage and form a specific type of cartilaginous joint called a __________. based on its degree of movement, this is an example of a _________ joint. hyaline; symphasis; synarthrotic
small, flattened features of the first thoracic vertebrae, specifically the _____________ ___________ ______ articulate with the _________ ____________ __________ on the seventh cervical vertebrae superior articular facets; inferior articular facets
the muscle between adjacent ribs that act to eleveate the ribs are the _________ ________ external intercostals
the muscle of the abdominal region that inserts on to ribs 5-7 and the xiphoid process is the __________ _________. the fibers of this muscle are oriented vertically rectus abdominis
when classifying bones based on shape, ribs, the sternum, and the ilium are all classified as ______ bones flat
compared to other vertebrae, the _________ ___________ of lumbar vertebrae project laterally and the __________ __________ is nearly horizontal transverse processes; spinous process

the opening through which the spinal cord passes in all vertebrae is called the ___________ foramen vertebral
a thorn-like projection on the posterior region of a typical vertebrae is called the ______ ________. the same feature is also found on the scapula spinous process
cervical vertebrae are the only vertebrae with the __________ foramina transverse
when classifiying bones based on their shape, all the vertebrae are classified as ______________ bones irregular
