Term
Definition
Bone Functions   Shape, support, protection, movement, electrolyte balance, acid-base balance  
🗑

🗑
Compressional strength   Calcium salts allow bones to resist strong squeezing forces  
🗑
Red Bone marrow   Produces red blood cells  
🗑
Yellow bone marrow   Saturated with fat, not able to produce blood cells, replaces red bone marrow overtime  
🗑
First skeleton in develope fetus is composed of   Cartilage and fibrous connective tissue  
🗑
Endrochondral ossification   Cartilage begins to turn into bone, begins in long bones  
🗑
Frontanels   "Soft spots", part of the newborns skull, allows safe compression of head while passing through birth canal, allows skull to expand as brain grows, completely modified by age 2, consist of fibrous connective tissue  
🗑
Bone lengthening occurs at the.....   Epiphyseal plate for fixed period, growth plate  
🗑
Vitamins and minerals need for bone growth   Calcium, phosphorus, vitamins A C and D  
🗑
Greenstick fracture   Fracture is incomplete  
🗑
Comminuted fracture   Bone is broken into pieces, most likely to occur in a car accident  
🗑
Adult skeleton has   206 bones  
🗑
Head   Prominent expanded end of a bone  
🗑
Trochanter   A large process, found only in the femur  
🗑
Tuberosity   A rough, raised bump; usually for muscle attachment  
🗑
Foramen   a round opening, usually a passageway for vessels and nerves  
🗑
Meatus   A tube like opening  
🗑
Condyle   A rounded knob, usually fits into a fossa on another bone to form a joint  
🗑
Axial skeleton   80 bones, skull, spine, ribs  
🗑
Kyphosis   Thoracic curve  
🗑
True pelvis   Wide and shallow in females and narrow and deep in males, females have a larger pelvic outlet and wider pubic arch than males  
🗑
Femur   Longest and strongest bone in the body. It articulates with the acetabulum of the pelvis to form ball and socket joint (hip)  
🗑
Patella   Also known as the kneecap, a triangular sesamoid bone embedded in the tendon of the knee  
🗑
Fibula   Slender bone of the lower leg, stabilize ankle, no weight  
🗑
Synovial joints   Freely moveable joints contain a fluid filled joint capsule.  
🗑
Pivot joint   Formed by the first and second cervical vertebrae, allows bones to rotate  
🗑
Hinge joint   Allows only back and forth movements  
🗑
Gliding joints   Two relatively flat bone surfaces slide over each other  
🗑
Ball and socket joints   Ball shaped head of one bone fits into a cup like socket of another bone, wider range of motion  
🗑
Saddle joint   Both bones shaped like saddle, move back and forth and side to side  
🗑
Condyloid joint   Oval surface on another oval surface  
🗑
Tendons attach   Muscle to bone  
🗑
Shoulder   Ball and socket joint, has the great range of motion of any joint, most likely joint to dislocate  
🗑
Elbow   Consist of two articulations:between the humerus and the ulna, hinge joint  
🗑
Hip   Ball n socket joint, more stable than shoulder, socket is deeper than the shoulder joint  
🗑
Types of muscles   Cardiac, smooth and skeletal  
🗑
Cardiac muscle   Involuntary, appears striped or striated, found only in the heart  
🗑
Smooth muscle   Involuntary, non striated, found in digestive tract,blood vessels, bladder, airways and uterus  
🗑
Skeletal muscle   Voluntary, appears markedly striated, attached to the bone and causes movement of body  
🗑
Muscle fiber   Skeletal muscle cell  
🗑
Epimysium   Layer of connective tissue that surrounds the muscle as a whole and binds all the muscle fibers together  
🗑
Muscles attach to bone   By tendons- strong cords of fibrous connective tissue  
🗑
Skeletal muscle contractions required....   Stimulation of motor unit  
🗑
Muscle tone   A continuous state of partial muscle contraction in which muscles are at there optimal resting length  
🗑
Threshold   The minimum voltage needed to cause muscle fiber contraction  
🗑
Incomplete tetanus   The condition of rapid contraction with only partial relaxation  
🗑
Anaerobic respiration   Generate energy from glucose for activity  
🗑
Prime mover   The main muscle triggering the movement  
🗑
Synergists   The muscle that assist  
🗑
Antagonist   Muscles balancing these movements  
🗑
Number of origins   Bi means two origins- biceps brachii
