between superior articular facets of one vertebra and the inferior facets of the preceding vertebra
SYNOVIAL JOINT
What kind of joint is between vertebral bodies and containing intervertebral discs (IV disks)?
symphyses
ATLANTO-OCCIPITAL JOINT
between superior articular facets of atlas and occipital condyles of the cranial base
Condyloid type of synovial joint allowing primarily for flexion/extension
ATLANTO-AXIAL JOINTS
Three joints that allow for rotation of skull and atlas on C2 (around dens)
Right & Left Lateral atlanto-axial joints:
between inferior facets of C1 and superior facets of C2
Gliding type of synovial joint
Median atlanto-axial joint:
Between anterior arch of C1 and dens of C2
Pivot type of synovial joint
Which are true ribs?
1-7 connect to sternum
Function of head of rib
articulates with superior costal facet of T vertebra of same number and the inferior costal facet of the vertebra numbered one lower, and IV disc btwn the two vertebrae
Which lung has 3 lobes??
Right!
Anterior Longitudinal Ligament
- connects anterolateral aspects of vertebral bodies and IV disks from C1 to the sacrum
limits hyperextension of column
Posterior longitudinal ligament
(weaker/ narrower than anterior):
connects posterior aspects of vertebral bodies and IV disks from C2 to the sacrum (located inside the vertebral canal)
Expands superiorly to form the tectorial membrane which passes through the foramen magnum to attach to the occipital bone of the skull
limits hyperflexion of column
Ligamentum flava
connect laminae of adjacent vertebrae thereby limiting hyperflexion
Interspinous ligament
connect spinous processes of adjacent vertebrae thereby limiting hyperflexion
Supraspinous ligament
connect apices of the spinous processes of adjacent vertebrae (C7 to the sacrum) thereby limiting hyperflexion.
Ligamentum nuchae
extends superiorly to external occipital protuberance of the occipital bone (also provides a site for muscle attachment)
Where is the sternal notch?
Plane from manubriosternal joint to IV disc T4/T5 marks:
what muscle do you see on thoracic cavity (that surrounded the sternum) when you pull back the chest cage?
transversus thoracis muscle
what kind of joint is costovertebral joints of head of rib?
synovial
what kind of joint is costotransverse joints?
synovial
type of joint at sternocostal joints (not 1st)?
synovial
what kind of joint is at the manubriosternal joint?
symphyses
what kind of joint is at first sternocostal joint?
Synchondrosis
what kind of joint is at xiphisternal joint?
Synchondrosis
what kind of joint is at costochondral joints?
Synchondrosis
what is a synchondrosis joint?
bones connected by hyaline cartilage
Anastomosis
communication between blood vessels
What do you call the internal and external layers of the intervertebral disc?
Internal: nucleus pulposus
External: Anulus fibrosus
