QuestionAnswer

Organic protein compounds, mainly in the form of collagen fiber, represent what percent of the bone? 33%
What percent of the bone is composed of mineral? 67%
What hardens bone tissue? Calcium salts
What percentage of the body's calcium supply is stored in bone tissue? 98%
What is osteopenia? Refers to BMD that is lower than normal peak BMD but not low enough to be classified as osteoporosis.
What is osteoporosis? An irreversible decrease in mineralized bony tissue.
What does BMD stand for? Bone mineral density.
The axial skeleton consists of what? Skull Hyoid bone Vertebral column Rib cage
The appendicular skeleton consists of what? Limbs and their respective girdles

What is appositional growth? The addition of new layers on those previously formed. Characteristic of tissue formed of rigid materials.
What is endochondral growth? Process of bone formation (lengthening) by which the cartilage model is replaced by bone (called endochondral ossification)
What is an epiphyseal plate? Transverse ("extending across") cartilage plate near the end of a child's bone responsible for lengthening the bone (aka "growth plate").
In most humans, what percentage of bone mass is reached by the age of 18? 90%

Scapula Shoulder plate
Joint A point of articulation between two bones
What are the three joint types? 1. Fibrous 2. Cartilaginous 3. Synovial
Fibrous joint Little or no movement
Cartilaginous joint Composed of either hyaline cartilage (less flexible) or fibrocartilage (more flexible)
Hyaline cartilage Tough, elastic, fibrous connective tissue
Fibrocartilage More flexible than hyaline cartilage and allows for greater movement capabilities
Synovial joint Contains synovial fluid and enables considerable movement
Synovial membrane Layer of connective tissue which lines the joint and produces synovial fluid
Joint capsule Sac enclosing a joint, formed by an outer fibrous membrane and inner synovial membrane
What two types of membrane are contained in a joint capsule and where are they found? 1. Fibrous - external 2. Synovial - internal
Periosteum Dense fibrous membrane covering the surface of bones except at the joints. Serves as an attachment for muscles and tendons
Articular disc Plate or ring of fibrocartilage attached to the joint capsule and separating the articular surfaces of the bones
Bursa Fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body
Hypermobility Describes joints that stretch further than normal. Also referred to as "joint laxity"
Tendon Connects muscles to bones
Ligament Supports internal organs and holds bones together properly in joints
What are the six joint types and an example of each? 1. Ball and socket (shoulder/hip) 2. Condyloid (wrist) 3. Hinge (elbow/knee/fingers/toes) 4. Pivot (forearm/neck) 5. Plane (midcarpal/midtarsal/vertebrae) 6. Saddle (thumb)
Muscle fascia Thickened connective tissue that envelops an individual or group of muscles
Myofibrils Thread-like fibrils that make up the contractile part of a striated muscle fiber
Myofilaments Filaments made up of actin and myosin. Structural units of myofibril
Myosin Protein in muscle cells responsible for the elastic and contractile properties of muscle. AKA "thick contractile protein."
Actin Protein in muscle fiber that functions with myosin to produce muscle contraction. AKA "thin contractile protein"
Anatomical position Standing face forward, arms adducted and hands supinated
Midline Median plane of the body
Anterior axillary line Saggital plane shifted to crease of the axilla (underarm).
Midaxillary line Perpendicular line drawn downward from the apex of the axilla (underarm). AKA Frontal plane line
Anterior Front

Lateral Away from the medial plane of the body
Ipsilateral On the same side of the body
Contralateral On the opposite side of the body
Superficial Shallow in relation to surface
Deep Deep in relation to surface
Flexion To bend (in hinge joints, articulating bones move closer together; ball and socket limb moves from anterior to midaxillary)
Extension To straighten or extend (in hinge joints, articulating bones move away from one another; ball and socket limb moves posterior to midaxillary)
Lateral flexion Spinal movement to left or right (neck/trunk)
Protraction Movement toward anterior surface in horizontal line
Retraction Movement back to anatomical position (or posterior to functional range of motion)
Dorsi flexion Moves ball of foot toward shin
Plantar flexion Moves foot toward plantar surface
Pronation Rotates forearm so radius and ulna cross. Palm faces posterior (rear)
Supination Rotates forearm so radius and ulna uncross. Palm faces superior (front)
Inversion Turns ankle so plantar surface of foot faces medially (sole of foot flat on ground)
Eversion Turns ankle so plantar surface of foot faces laterally (sole of foot angled outward)
Abduction Movement away from midline
Adduction Movement toward midline
Ulnar deviation Causes hand to move medially toward little finger in frontal plane (hand points toward thigh in anatomical position)
Radial deviation Causes hand to move laterally toward thumb in frontal plane (hand points away from thigh in anatomical position)
External rotation Articulating bone is rotated away from body in anatomical position (shoulder/hip)
Internal rotation Articulating bone is rotated toward body in anatomical position (shoulder/hip)
Circumduction Multiple-axis joint action where: 1. Flexion is combined with abduction 2. Adduction or extension and hyperextension are combined with abduction and then adduction (think shoulder exercises w/dumbbells)
Elevation Superior movement of bone
Depression Inferior movement of bone
