🗑
What are the bones of the pelvic girdle   illium, pubis, & ischium  
🗑
True or false- the clavicle is the only direct connection between pectoral girdle and the axial skeleton   True  
🗑
What is the acromion   Bony process at flat end of clavicle above humerus  
🗑
What is glenoid cavity or glenoid fossa   Where the scapula articulates with the proximal end of humerus  
🗑
What is the amphiarthrotic articulation which limits movements between the two pubic bones   Symphysis pubis  
🗑
What two areas of the skeleton are used to generally identify significant differences between male & female   Pelvis & skull.  
🗑
What is difference between male & female pelvis   Woman greater than 180 degree angle, lower illium “wings”, coccyx bent out a bit for female  
🗑
What are the bones of the ankle/foot called   Tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges  
🗑
What are the bones of hand/wrist called   Carpals, metacarpals, phalanges  
🗑
How many phalanges in each hand and foot   14 each. Each finger and toes have 3 while big thumb and big toe have 2  
🗑
What is name of bone we sit on   Ischium  
🗑
What is the name of the most lateral bone in forearm (anatomical position)   Radius  
🗑
What is the name of the medial bone in forearm (anatomical position)   Ulna  
🗑
What is the name of the most lateral bone in leg (anatomical position)   Tibia  
🗑
What is the name of the medial bone in leg(anatomical position)   Fibula  
🗑
Is the femur part of the leg   NO! this is the thigh  
🗑
What bones consist of leg bones   Tibia & fibula  
🗑
What are the os coxae   3 separate bones that make up hip. This is the paired hipbones that make up pelvic girdle  
🗑
What 3 bones are fused to make os coxae   Illium, ischium, and pubis  
🗑
What is articular cartilage   Glassy smooth hyaline cartilage that covers opposing bones surfaces but provides spongy cushions to absorb compression placed on joint and keep bone from being crushed  
🗑
What are ligaments   Helps prevent dislocation; Unite bones and prevent excessive or undesirable mvmt. The Synovial joints are reinforced and strengthened by ligaments. They are thickened parts of fibrous capsule found outside the capsule  
🗑
What are muscle tendons   Resists tension placed on joints. tendons are kept taut by muscle tone. The tendon is built to withstand tension. These are similar to, but not to be confused with ligaments, which connect or join one bone to another  
🗑
What is articular capsule   Strengthens joint so bones are not pulled apart.  
🗑
What is Synovial fluid   Lubricates and keeps joints from overheating  
🗑
What is a nonaxial range of movement (synovial joints)   slipping movements only  
🗑
What is a Uniaxial range of movement (synovial joints)   movement in one plane  
🗑
What is a Biaxial range of movement (synovial joints)   movement in two planes  
🗑
What is a multiaxial range of movement (synovial joints)   Movement in or around all three planes  
🗑
What is Flexion   Bending movement that decreases the angle of the joint  
🗑
What is Extension   Reverse of flexion; joint angle is increased  
🗑
What is Dorsiflexion   Lifting foot upwards  
🗑
What is plantar flexion   Down movement of the foot (“plant the foot”)  
🗑
What is Abduction   movement away from the midline (think abduct-take away)  
🗑
What is Adduction   movement toward the midline (think add to body)  
🗑
What is Circumduction   movement describes a cone in space  
🗑
What is Rotation   The turning of a bone around its own long axis. Examples :Between first two vertebrae and Hip and shoulder joints  
🗑
What is Depression   moving body part inferiorly (opening downward of mandible)  
🗑
What is Elevation   Moving body part superiorly (shrugging shoulders moves scapula; during eating your mandible is elevated when your mouth is closed  
🗑
What is Eversion   Sole faces laterally; Special movements of foot  
🗑
What is Inversion   Sole of foot turns medially; Special movements of foot  
🗑
What is gliding   (translation) simplest joint movements flat or nearly flat bone surfaces glides or slips over one another (back and forth & side to side) w/out angulation or rotation (think intercarpal/intertarsal joints and between flat articular processes of vertebrae.  
🗑
What is supination   Rotating forearm laterally so palm faces superiorly (upwards) (“soup in hand”)  
🗑
What is Pronation   Forearm rotates medially so palm faces inferiorly (downwards) (palms down)  
🗑
What is protraction and retraction   Non angular anterior and posterior movements in transverse plane (jut jaw = protraction; retraction when move jaw back into original position)  
🗑
What are plane joints   Sliding movements Non-axial including sacroiliac, intercarpal joints, femoropatellar joint of the knee & proximal tibiofubular joint of knee. Articular surfaces are flat, short gliding or translational movments  
🗑
What are condyloid joints   Bone fits into depression on another bone. Biaxial joints allows all angular movements such as flexion, extension, abduction and adduction and circumduction. Types are radiocarpal (wrist) and metacarpophalangeal (knuckle)  
🗑
What is hinge joint   Cylindrical projection fits into a trough shaped surface of another. Uniaxial. Elbow , knee and interphalangeal joints  
🗑
What is pivot joint   Uniaxial; rounded end of one bone protrudes into sleeve of another bone. Only movement is uniaxial rotation. Example is atlas/axis (c1/c2)  
🗑
What is a saddle joint   Resemble condyloid but greater movement. Shaped like a saddle. Carpometacarpal joints of thumbs. (lets twiddle our thumbs)  
🗑
What is a ball & socket joint   Multiaxial. Spherical head of one bone articulates with a cuplike socket of another. Examples are shoulder and hips  
🗑
