Unit 2 Test Review

Skeletal and Muscular Body Systems

DefinitionTerm
parts of the skeletal system bones, ligaments, tendons, cartilage & joints
functions of skeletal system protection, support, blood cell production, mineral storage, muscle attachment sites
end of long bone epiphysis
long shaft/middle of long bone diaphysis
point where 2 bones meet joint
hollow tube in center of diaphysis medullary cavity
thin membrane surrounding diaphysis periosteum
holds bones together at joints ligaments
connects muscle to bone tendons
bone number at birth 300
bone number at adulthood 206
bones that protect (ex. cranium) flat
bones for movement (ex. radius and ulna) long
cube-like bones (ex. tarsals) short
bones inside of muscles sesamoid
non category bones irregular
skeletal "axis" of body axial
skeletal appendages/limbs appendicular
hyper lumbar curve (belly out) lordosis
hyper thoracic curve (slouched forward) kyphosis
lateral deviation of spine scoliosis
slightly movable joint (ex. neck) amphiathroses
immovable joint (ex. cranium, sacrum) synarthroses
most movable joint (ex. shoulder, pelvis) diarthroses
number of vertebrae in cervical section 7
number of vertebrae in thoracic section 12
number of vertebrae in lumbar section 5
number of skeletal muscles 600
functions of muscular system maintain posture, produce stability, enable body movement, protect internal organs, absorb shock & reduce stress on joints
what are muscles surrounded by (also makes up tendons) collagen
involutary, striated, in the cardium cardiac muscle
voluntary (exc. diaphram), striated, attached to bones skeletal muscle
involutary, smooth/viseral, internal organs smooth muscle
layer surrounding individual muscle fibers endomysium
layer surrounding fasicles perimysium
layer surrounding groups of fasicles epimysium
fibers allowing quick contractions parallel
fibers allowing for more strength output, run obliquely pennate
prime mover muscle agonist
relaxed muscle antagonist
ventral-ventral; decrease of angle flexion
dorsal-dorsal; increase of angle extension
moves away from medial ABduction
moves toward medial ADduction
has full/360 freedom of movement circumduction
movable, but only along specific x/y/z axis (not all 3) rotation
sole of foot points posterior; toes down plantarflexion
sole of foot points anterior; toes up dorsiflexion
sole of foot point medial INversion
sole of foot points lateral Eversion
