The human body has two ________ that attach the bones of the upper limbs to the axial skeleton.

Pectoral (shoulder) girdles

The ______ is the anterior bone articulates with the manubrium of the sternum at the sternoclavicular joint

Clavicle

The scapula articulates with the clavicle at the

Acromioclavicular joint and glenohumeral joint

Slender s shaped clavicle or

Collarbone

Medial end called the

Sternal end

Flat lateral end called the

Acromial end

Is one of the most frequently broken bones

Clavicle

Is one of the most frequently broken bones

Clavicle

Shoulder blade

Scalpula

Is one of the most frequently broken bones

Clavicle

Shoulder blade

Scalpula

Arm bone, is the longest and largest bone of the upper level. It articulates proximately with the scapula and distally with two bones the ulna and the radius to form the elbow joint

Hummerus

Located on the medial aspect of the forarm and is longer than the radius

Ulna

Located on the medial aspect of the forarm and is longer than the radius

Ulna

P. U ____ is on the ulna side

Pinky

The smaller bone of the forearm and is located on the lateral aspect thumb side of the forearm

Radius

Broad flat fibrous connective tissue. Joins the shafts up to bones and provides a side of attachment for some of the deep skeletal muscles

Interosseus membrane

Radiocarpal joint

Wrist

The ______proximal region of the hand and consist of eight small bones the ______

Carpus, carpals

Bones of the digits, make up the distal part of the hand

Phalanges

Bones of the digits, make up the distal part of the hand

Phalanges

Single bone of the digit is referred to as the

Phalanx

The thumb has two ___ called ___ and ____

Phalanges, proximal and distal phalanges

Pelvic hip girdle consist of ___ hip bones also called ___, __, or ___

Two, coxal, pelvic bones, os coxa

Hip bones unite posteriorly with the____ at the ___

Sacrum, sacroiliac joints

Superior border of the ileum is the

Iliac crest

Superior border of the ileum is the

Iliac crest

Inferior posterior portion of the hip bone. Features include thickened ischial tuberosity

Ischium

The acetabulum and the femoral head form the

Hip coxal joint

Portion of the bony pelvis superior to the pelvic brim is the

False greater pelvis

Portion of the bony pelvis inferior to the pelvic brim is the

True lesser pelvis

Surrounds the pelvic cavity

True pelvis

___ pelvis is wider and shallower than the ___.

Female, male

Thigh bone, is the longest, heaviest, and strongest bone in the body. Proximal and articulates with the Acetabulum of the hip. It's distal end articulates with the tibia and patella

Femur

It's a landmark commonly used to locate the site for intramuscular injections

Greater trochanter

The kneecap. Anterior to the knee joint.

Patella

The kneecap. Anterior to the knee joint.

Patella

Develops in the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle. It is called the base

Sesamoid bone

The kneecap. Anterior to the knee joint.

Patella

Develops in the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle. It is called the base

Sesamoid bone

Pointed distal end is referred to as the

Apex

Or shinbone is the larger medial weight-bearing bone of the leg

Tibia

Inferior to and continuous with the tibial tuberosity is a sharp ridge that can be felt below the skin known as

Anterior border

Medial surface of the distal end of the tibia forms the

Dial malleous

Is parallel and lateral to the tibia, but is considerably smaller. Help stabilize the ankle joint

Fibula

No synovial and the bones are held together by dense regular connective tissue that is rich and collagen fibers

Fibrous joints

No synovial and the bones are held together by dense regular connective tissue that is rich and collagen fibers

Fibrous joints

No synovial. Cavity in the bones are held together by Cartledge

Cartaliginous jointa

No synovial and the bones are held together by dense regular connective tissue that is rich and collagen fibers

Fibrous joints

No synovial. Cavity in the bones are held together by Cartledge

Cartaliginous jointa

Bones forming the joint have a synovial cavity and are united by the dense regular connective tissue of in articular capsule and often by accessory ligaments

Synovial joints

A fibrous joint composed of a thin layer of dense irregular connective tissue. Occur only between bones of the skull

Suture

Fibrous joint in which there is a greater distance between the articulating surfaces and more dense irregular connective tissue that in a suture

Syndesmosis

Allows little or no movement. Articulating bones are tightly connected by either Hyline cartilage or fibrocartilage

Cartilaginous joint

Joint capsule surrounds a synovial joint encloses the synovial cavity and unites articulating bones

Articular capsule

Consistent dense regular connective tissue mostly collagen fibers that attached to the periosteum of the articulating bones. Permits considerable movement of a joint wild great tensile strength helps prevent bones from dislocating

Fibrous membrane

Composed of Areolar connected tissue with elastic fibers includes accumulations of adipose tissue

Synovial membrane

Flexibility in their articular capsule and ligaments

Double jointed

The synovial membrane secretes ___ A viscous clear or pale yellow fluid named for its similarity in appearance and consistency to uncooked egg white

Synovial fluid

Prominent in the ball and socket joints of the shoulder and hip. Helps deepen the joint socket

Labrum

Simple movement in which nearly flat down surfaces move back-and-forth and form side to side with respect to one another. Intercarpal and enter tarsal joint are examples

Gliding

And increase or decrease in the angle between articulating bones

Angular movements

Flexion and extension. Flexion, extension

__ and __ are opposite movements.___ is a decrease in the angle between articulating bones. ___ there is an increase in the angle between articulating bones

Flexion and extension. Flexion, extension

Continuation of extensions be on the anatomical position is called

Hyperextension

Movement that returns each of the body parts to the anatomical position

Adduction

Movement that returns each of the body parts to the anatomical position

Adduction

Movement of the distal end of the body part in a circle

Circumduction
