Anatomy
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is anatomical position? | standing straight up, palms foreward, feet facing forward |
| Segments of the Body | Cranium, Neck, Upper Extremity, Lower Extremity, Trunk |
| Upper Extremity | Arm, Forearm, and Hand |
| Lower Extremity | Thigh, Lower Leg, Foot |
| Trunk | Thorax, Abdomen |
| Medial | towards midline |
| Lateral | outside |
| Anterior | towards front (ventral) |
| Posterior | towards back (dorsal) |
| Distal | away from trunk |
| Proximal | close to trunk |
| Superior | body segment is above another |
| Inferior | body segment |
| Cranial | positioned close to the head |
| Caudal | positioned close to feet |
| Supine | laying face up |
| Prone | laying face down |
| Superficial | close to skin |
| Deep | more interior |
| Bilateral | both sides |
| Unilateral | one side |
| Contralateral | opposite side |
| Ipsilateral | same side |
| Sagittal Plane | left to right, flexion and extension, includes frontal axis |
| Frontal (Coronal) Plane | divides into anterior and posterior halves, abduction and adduction, internal flexion, inversion/exversion, includes sagittal axis |
| Transverse (Horizontal) Plane | divides top and bottom halves, rotation, supination/pronation, trunk rotation, cervical rotation, includes vertical axis |
| Sagittal Axis | anterior to posterior direction |
| Frontal Axis | left to right direction (medial to lateral) |
| Vertical Axis | top to bottom direction (longtidunal) |
| Motion will always happen.... | in the same plane and around same axis no matter position |
| Center of Gravity | intersection of all 3 cardinal planes |
| What are three degrees of freedom? | uniplanar, biplanar, and triplanar |
| kinetic chain | series of interconnected links |
| closed kinetic chain | distal segment is fixed, such as a squat |
| open kinetic chain | distal segment is not fixed, such as bicep curls |
| 1st Function of the Skeletal System: | support and shape |
| 2nd Function of the Skeletal System; | protect vital organs |
| 3rd Function of the Skeletal System: | assist movement, provides rigid structure for muscle attachment and leverage |
| 4th Function of the Skeletal System: | manufacture blood cells |
| 5th Function of the Skeletal System: | store calcium and mineral salts |
| muscle | increased internal force |
| joints | axis |
| axial | 80, cranium, vertibral column, ribcage, and sacrum |
| appendicular | 126, upper extremity- humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, phalanges, carp and scapula. lower extremity- femur, fibula, patella, tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges, pelvic bone |
| Compact Bone | hard, dense, after layer |
| Cancellais Bone | spongy |
| Periosteum | thin, outer layer, blood vessels and nerve endings in structure.. Tendons attach and provide nourishment, promotes growth in diameter. |
| Osteoblasts | build bone |
| Osteoclasts | remove damage and old bone |
| Wolff's Law | bones adapt/shape based on the forces placed upon them |
| Epiphysis | covered in articular cartilage |
| Epiphysial Plates | growth plates |
| Diaphysis | shaft of a bone |
| Metaphysis | narrowing between diaphysis and epiphysis |
| Endosteum | inside bone |
| Long Bones | long/cylindrical- clavicle, humerus, metacarpals, tibia, and fibula |
| Short Bones | cube shaped, small |
| Flat Bones | ribs, cranium, sternum, scapula, curved structure, and thin or thick |
| Irregular Bones | nasal bone |
| Sesamoid Bones | embedded in a tendon- patella |
| What is the articular system? | joints |
| Three functions of joints: | allow movement, bear weight, and provide stability |
| Three ways to classify joints: | type, shape, and function |
| Osteokinematics: | motion that occurs btwn 2 bones at the joint |
| Arthrokinematics: | motion that occurs at the joint surface, such as roll, spin, and glide |
| Diarthrodial | mobile, synovial joints, non-axial, uniaxial, biaxial, and triaxial |
| Synovial Joints | synovial capsule and multiple planes of motion |
| Non-Axial Joints | plane/glide joints |
| Uniaxial Joints | hinge joints- elbow/knee pivot joints- radial/ulnar (elbow) |
| Biaxial Joints | condyloid joints- MCP joint (hand) |
| Triaxial Joints | ball and socket joint- shoulder and hip saddle joint- thumb |
| Synathrodial Joints | stable, fibrous and cartilaginous |
| Fibrous | ligament/ fibers suture- skull syndesmosis gomphosis- teeth |
| Cartilaginous | cartilage synthysis- cartilage disk, in between 2 bones synchondrosis- cartilage between ribs and sternum |
| Cartilage | hyaline (articular)- covers end of bones fibrocartilage- cartilagenous disc elastic cartilage- ears and nose |
