Chapter 3: Kinesiology & Functional Anatomy

Front 1

What is kinesiology? Functional Anatomy?

Back 1

The scientific study of human movement.

Considering muscle location, as well as the movement produced by that muscle.

Front 2

What is anatomical position? Anatomical neutral?

Back 2

Position of standing erect with the palms facing forward or externally rotated.

Erect, palms facing the body.

Front 3

What are the 3 planes of motions? How are they defined?

Back 3

Frontal Plane, Sagittal Plane, Horizontal Plane

FP: divides the body into front and back halves
SP: divides the body into right and left halves
HP: divides the body into top and bottom halves

Front 4

What is anterior? Posterior? Superior? Inferior?

Back 4

1. Front of the body relative to another reference point.

2. Back of the body relative to another reference point.

3. Above a reference point.

4. Below a reference point.

Front 5

What is medial? Lateral? Proximal? Distal?

Back 5

1. Position relatively closer to the midline of the body.

2. Position relatively farther away from the midline of the body.

3. Position closer to a reference point.

4. Position farther from the reference point.

Front 6

What is unilateral? Superficial? Deep? Cephalic?

Back 6

1. Refers to only one side.

2. Near the surface.

3. Further beneath the surface.

4. Toward the head.

Front 7

What is Caudal? Supine? Prone?

Back 7

1. Toward the bottom

2. Lying on ones backside.

3. Lying face down.

Front 8

What is Flexion? Extension?

Back 8

1. Bending movement where the relative angle between two adjacent segments decrease.

2. Bending movement where the relative angle between to adjacent segments increase.

Both move in Sagittal.

Front 9

What is Abduction? Adduction?

Back 9

1. Movement away from the midline of the body.

2. Movement towards the midline of the body.

Both move in Frontal.

Front 10

What is Internal Rotation? External Rotation.

Back 10

1. Body parts toward the midline.

2. Body part away from the midline.

Both are in Transverse plane movements.

Front 11

What are the 4 main movements of the Scapula?

Back 11

1. Protraction - abduction of the scapula
2. Retraction - adduction of the scapula
3. Elevation - raising of the scapula
4. Depression - lowering of the scapula

Front 12

What is pronation and supination of the wrist?

Back 12

1. Movement of forearm where the palm rotates to face backward.

1. Movement of forearm where the palm rotates to face forward

Front 13

What is pronation and supination of the ankle?

Back 13

1. Triplane motion of eversion, abduction, and dorsiflexion

2. Triplane motion which combines movements inversion, adduction, and plantarflexion.

Front 14

What is dorsiflexion? Plantarflexion? Inversion? Eversion?

Back 14

1. Extension

2. Flexion

3. Inward movement of the sole of the foot.

4. Outward movement of the sole of the foot.

Front 15

What are the 3 main parts of a muscle? What is sternocleidomastoid?

Back 15

Belly: bulging part of a muscle

Origin: less moveable attachment (be more then 1 origin)

Insertion: The moveable attachment

The sternum, clavicle, Flex head

Front 16

What is the primary function of the gastrocnemius and soleus during a calf raise?

Back 16

Gastro is plantarflexion and knee flexion.

Soleus is plantarflexion.

Front 17

What are the 4 major muscle groups of the quadriceps? 3 major muscle groups of hamstring?

Back 17

1. Rectus Femoris
2. Vastus Intermedius
3. Vastus Lateralis
4. Vastus Medialis

1. Biceps Femoris
2. Semi-tendinosus
3. Semimem-branosus

Front 18

Which muscles would perform hip flexion during a hanging knee raise? Which muscle has the primary function of standing hip abduction?

Back 18

1. Rectus Femoris, gluteus minimus, psoas major, and lliacus

2. Gluteus Medius

Front 19

Which muscles both flex and rotate spine?
Which muscle stabilizes via intra-abdominal pressure?
What are the muscles that stabilize the muscle and sine?

Back 19

1. Internal and External obliques flex and rotate spine.

2. The Transverse abdomius stabilizes via intra-abdominal pressure.

3.
