  • Front
  • Back
skin( top layer down)
epidermis-dermis- arrector pili muscle- sweat gland- hair follice- blood vessels
Bone
Is a tissue with a solid feel
Muscle
moves the skeleton made up of muscle cells, layers of connective tissue(fascia) and numerous nerves and blood vessels, muscle tissue has a striated texture- unique because it can be in a contracted or relaxed state
Perimysium
A bundle of fibers enveloping each fascicle
Tendon
Tendon's are dense connective tissue in a bundle of parallel collagen fibers. They attach muscle to the periosteum (connective tissue that surrounds the bone), essentially tendons attach muscle to the bone.
Ligament
Ligaments are an uneven configuration of dense connective tissue that connects bones together
Difference between tendon and ligament?
tendon connects muscle to bone and has a parallel makeup while ligaments connect bone to bone and has an uneven structure
Fascia
Like tendons and ligaments fascia form a dense connective tissue but it is a continuous sheet of fibrous membrane that is beneath the skin and around muscles and organs
Artery and Vein
Arteries are on the protected side of the appendage buried deep in the musculature, while veins are easily palpated and don't have a pulse .
Bursa
A bursa is a small fluid filled sack that reduces friction between two structures stiuated mainly around joints
Nerve
Nerve vessels are tube shaped mobile and tender when compressed. if compressed or impinged the nerve may create sharp shooting sensation down the appendage
Lymph Node
lymph nodes collect lymphatic fluid from lymphatic vessels. They are bean shaped and may range in sin from tiny pea to almond. they are located throughout the body, they are glands that are smaller than other glans and have irregular lumpy surfaces
Adipose Tissue
Adipose tissue is a form of loose connective tissue. it is in many levels throughout the body including marrow of long bones and around kidneys
Planes of movement
sagittal plane, frontal or coronal plane, and transverse plane
sagittal plane
divides body into left and right halves
Frontal (coronal) plane
divides body into front and back portions
Transverse plane
dividing the body into upper and lower parts
Circumduction
only at the shoulder and hip joints. It is the combination of flexion, extension, adduction and abduction
Prone
is the position of lying on the table face down
Supine
(on your spine) is to lie face up
sidelying
to lie on your side
lateral flexion
occurs only at the axial skeleton, when the head or vertebral column bend laterally to the side
supination and pronation
refer to pivoting action of forearm, supination- carrying a bowl, while pronation is spilling the bowl, palm facing the floor
Opposition
happens only at the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb occurs when the thumbpad crosses the palm toward the pinky finger
Inversion and Eversion
inversion turns in the foot, so the sole of the foot is medial, eversion- turns out - the foot where the sole of the foot is lateral
plantar flexion
point foot toward earth
dorsiflexion
taking foot off gas pedal
SITS muscles
the rotator cuff muscles
supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, subscapularis
How many muscles are in the body?
630
Only humans have..
opposable thumbs
adduction
add to the body
abduction
moving away from the body
retinaculum
a structure that retains an organ or tissue in place.
bipennate
Of or relating to a muscle with a central tendon toward which the fibers converge on either side like the barbs of a feather.
collagen
any of a family of extracellular, closely related proteins occurring as a major component of connective tissue, giving it strength and flexibility
Superior
refers to a structure closer to the head
Inferior
means closer to the feet - the navel is inferior to the nose
cranial
closer to the head
caudal
closer the buttocks
posterior
concerns a structure further toward the back of the body than another structure
Anterior
refers to a structure further in front
medial
pertains to structure closer to the midline or center of the body
lateral
refers to to a structure further away from the midline
distal
means a structure further away from the trunk of the body's midline
proximal
designates a structure closer to the trunk
superficial
describes a structure closer to the body's surface
deep
refers to a structure deeper in the body
3 kinds of muscle tissue
skeletal- straited- voluntary,
cardiac muscle only in the heart, visceral muscle which is smooth muscle and involuntary
