What is Anatomy?

It is the study of the structures of the body.

The bending or decreasing of the angle between bones or parts of the body

Flexion

Straightening or increasing of the angle between bones or parts of the body

Extension

What is it called when a body part moves away from the median

ABduction

What is it called when a body part moves towards the median?

ADduction

What is it called when the thumb is positioned closer to the other fingers?

Opposition

What is it called when the thumb is positioned away from the other fingers, back in its original position?

Reposition

What is flexion of the ankle joint?

Dorsiflexion

What is it called when the foot or toes are turned towards the plantar surface?

Plantar Flexion

What is the extensionn of a limb beyond the normal limit?

Hyperextension

When you bring the the anterior surface of a limb towards the medial plane?

Medial Rotation

When you bring the anterior surface away from the medial plane?

Lateral Rotation

Say hi position with the shoulder

What it called when a part moves superiorly?

Elevation

What it called when you move a part inferiorly?

Depression

What is it called when you move the sole away from the medial plane?

Eversion

What is it called when you move the sole toward the medial plane?

Inversion

What is the rotational movement of the forearm and hand that swings the radius medially around its longitudinal axis so that the palm of the hand faces posteriorly?

Pronation

What is the rotational movement of the forearm and hand that swings the radius laterally around its longitudinal axis so that the dorsum of the hand faces posteriorly?

Supination

What is protrusion?

Movement anteriorly or forward

What is protraction?

Movement anteriorly or forward.

What is retrusion?

Movement posteriorly or backwards.

What is retraction?

Movement posteriorly or backwards

Inferomedial means what?

"Down" and "In"

Superolateral means what?

"Up" and "Out"

What plane divides the body into anterior and posterior parts?

The coronal plane.

What plane divides the body into inferior and superior parts?

The transverse plane.

What plane is known as the frontal plane?

The coronal plane.

What does ipsilateral mean?

Occuring on the same side of the body as another structure.

What plane is also known as the horizontal plane?

The Transverse plane.

Your right leg and right arm are what?

Ipsilateral.

What plane divides the body into top and bottom parts?

The Transverse plane.

Contralateral is what?

When two structures occur on opposite sides of the body.

The wrapping, packaging, and insulating materials of the deep structures of the body are known as what?

Fascia

Unilateral is what?

When a structure occurs on only one side of the body. (i.e. the heart)

What is the dense, organozed connective tissue layer, devoid of fat, that covers most of the body parallel to the skin and subcutaneous tissues?

Deep Fascia.

The skin provides what?

Protection from environment


Containment for body structures and vital substances


Heat regulation through the evaporation of sweat and the dilation/constriction of blood vessels


Sensation through nerves and their sensory endings


Synthesis and storage of Vitamin D

Deep Fascia has how many parts?

Four:


1. Investing fascia- extensions invest deep structures (muscles and neurovascular bundles)


2. Intermuscular fascia- a layer of fascia that seperates muscles into compartments


3. Retinaculum- near certain joints, the fascia holds tendons on pakce where they cros the joint during flexion and extension


4. Subserous fascia- lies between the internal surfaces of the musculoskeletal walls and the seous membranes lining body cavities

How does the skin regulate heat?

Through the evaporation of sweat and the dilation/constriction of blood vessels

Closed sacs of serous menbrane that are empty except dor a thin lubricating fluid secreted by te membrane are what?

Bursae

Skin consists of two layers called

The Epidermis and the Dermis

Bursae aid in what?

Bursae enable one structure to move freely over another. In places of friction.

Does the epidermis have blood vessels?

No, it is avasculur. It has no blood vessels or lymphatics. It is nouroshed by the Dermis

3 layers of Bursae

1. Subcutaneous Bursae- occur in the subcutaneous tissues between skin and bony prominences


2. Subtendinous Bursae- facilitate the movement of tendon over bone


3. Synovial Tendon Sheaths- elongated bursae tat wrap around tendons, usually enclosing them as they traverse osseofibrous tunnels tat anchor the tendon in place

Does the Dermis have blood vessels?

Yes, it does. It is vascular. It provides the Epidermis with nourishment.

What two fibres provide the Dermis with strength and flexibility?

Collagen (strength) and Elastin (flexibility).

Is the subcutaneous layer a skin layer?

No. It is located between the dermis and the underlying deep fascia.

Where is fat stored?

In the subcutaneous layer.

What do skin ligaments do?

Hold the skin in place. It attaches the deep surface of the dermis to the underlying deep fascia.
