Question
Answer
action of gluteus minimus   abduction and medial rotation of femur  
🗑
Action of the gluteus medius.   abduction and medial rotation of femur  
🗑
List four actions of the sartorius muscle.   abduction, lateral rotation, and flexion of femur; flexion of knee; medial rotation of tibia (when knee is flexed and foot unweighted)  
🗑
Action of the gracilis across the hip joint.   adduction of femur  
🗑
action of fibularis longus   eversion of foot, plantarflexion of ankle  
🗑
Action of peroneus (fibularis) tertius.   eversion of foot, dorsiflexion of ankle  
🗑
Action of the semitendinosus across the hip joint.   extension of femur  
🗑
Two primary actions of the gluteus maximus.   extension of femur, lateral rotation of extended hip  
🗑
Action of pectineus.   adduction, medial rotation, and flexion of femur  
🗑
action of semitendinosus across the knee joint   flexion and medial rotation  
🗑
Action of the rectus femoris.   Flexion of Hip, Extention of knee  
🗑
List individual names and actions of the muscles collectively known as the triceps surae.   Gastrocnemius: plantarflexion of ankle, flexion of knee; Soleus: plantarflexion of ankle  
🗑
Action of the Plantaris.   Knee flexion, plantarflexion of ankle  
🗑
Function of popliteus muscle.   Lateral rotation of femur to Unlock the knee, assists in medial rotation of tibia when knee is flexed  
🗑
Action of soleus.   plantarflexion of ankle  
🗑
Action of gastrocnemius.   plantarflexion of ankle, flexion of knee  
🗑
function of the popliteus muscle   unlock the knee  
🗑
Discuss what functional reversal of origin and insertion means.   Origin becomes moveable, the insertion is stabilized  
🗑
Define the perimysium.   Connective Tissue which surrounds and holds groups (usually twelve) of endomysium wrapped muscle cells (a.k.a. fasicles, 1st thing visible to naked eye [muscle cell or fiber, endomysium, perimysium, epimysium, intermuscular septa, deep fascia] )  
🗑
besides being external to the epimysium and sometimes fused to it, give two other characteristics of the deep fascia   divides the muscles into functional compartments via the intramuscular septa, surrounds individual muscles and allows them to freely move against each other  
🗑
Considering that muscle volume remains constant, what can one say when comparing the range of strength of contraction of an unattached muscle.   RANGE depends on fasicle LENGTH; STRENGTH depends on fasicle CROSS SECTIONAL AREA  
🗑
a patient presents a sprained ankle caused by excessive inversion. give specific ligamentous damage.   anterior talofibular ligament  
🗑
Name the ligaments that run from the tibia to the lateral malleolus.   Anterior Tibiofibular Ligament, Posterior Tibiofibular Ligament  
🗑
A patient presents a sprained ankle caused by excessive eversion. Give specific ligamentous damage.   Deltoid ligament  
🗑
A ligament deep to the dorsal sacroiliac ligament, located in the deep groove between the sacrum and the ilium.   interosseous sacroiliac ligament  
🗑
Be able to identify from netter diagrams...   Oblique Popliteal Ligament, Ischiofemoral Ligament and suprapatellar bursa  
🗑
a patient is flat-footed due to flattening of the medial longitudinal arch. This would indicate what specific ligamentous damage   plantar calcaneonavicular ligament  
🗑
Name 2 important ligaments with attachments to the ischium and sacrum.   sacrospinous ligament; sacrotuberous ligament  
🗑
considering that muscle volume remains constant. What can one say when comparing the range and strength of contraction of an unattached muscle   they are inversely related  
🗑
Component of deep fascia which arranges muscle into functional compartments.   Intermuscular Septa  
🗑
Smallest fiber-like unit of a muscle visible to the naked eye. (do not say fiber as your answer)   Fasicle  
🗑
Name given to the connective tissue covering the smallest unit of muscle visible to the naked eye(don’t say fiber).   Perimysium  
🗑
