incorrect
19.
What is a suture? Example?
incorrect
20.
What is Synchondroses? Example?
A.
Adjacent bones slide over one another(limited monoaxial movement) Example: Joints between the carpals- intercarpals.
B.
1. cushions muscle 2. helps tendons slide easily over joints(tendon sheaths) 3. can improve mechanical effect(s) of muscle.
C.
Dorsiflexion: Toes flexed towards knees Plantarflexion: Toes pointed down Position: Sagittal Plane Example: Talocrural Joint
D.
Inversion: Turning foot inward Eversion: Turning foot outward Position: Frontal Plane Example: Subtalar joint
E.
Elevation: Arms up-pushes scapula up Depression: Arms Down Position: Frontal Plane Example: Scapulothoracic Joint
F.
Bony, Fibrous, Cartilaginous, and Synovial
G.
Similar to a ball and socket, but movement is more restricted. Allows two way-biaxial movement. Example: Metacarpophalangeal (knuckles)
H.
Tough dense regular collagenous connective tissue that attaches bone to bone.
I.
One bone has a smooth hemispherical head that fits into the cup of another bone. Can move in all directions Example: Hip and Glenohumeral(shoulder) Example:
J.
Fibers are short and allow little movement. Example: Between tooth and bone(maxilla or mandible)
K.
Fibers are very short and allow very little or no movement. Example: Sutures between the parietal bones
L.
When bones are connected by 'Hyaline Cartilage'(articular cartilage) Example:*The epiphyseal plates of the long bones seen in children- *Attachment of rib to sternum by hyaline coastal cartilage.
M.
When the articulating bone ends are connected by a plate or pad of cartilage. Types: Synchondroses and Symphyses
N.
Fibers are longer and the attached bones are more movable. Example: Between the tibia/fibula and ulna/radius
O.
Bones are joined by fibrous tissues. No joint cavity is present. The amount of movement depends on the on the length of the fibers uniting the bones.
P.
Fibrous sac of synovial fluid located between two muscles/or where tendons pass over bone.
Q.
Bones formed by 'Fibrocartilage' Example: Pubic Symphysis and the intervertebral joints.
R.
Strip or sheet to tough dense regular collagenous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone
S.
Supination:Movement of palm to anterior(upward) position Pronation: Movement of palm to posterior(downward) position. Position: Supinated position Example:proximal and distal radioulnar joint
T.
Protraction: Closer to vertebral column Retraction: Away from vertebral column Position: Frontal plane
