what is anatomy |
the study of the structures of the body |
|
anatomy is divided into 5 subjects what are the two we are studying |
gross anatomy and radiographic anatomy |
|
what is radiographic anatomy |
x-rays, its a transillumination of the body by high penetrating beams |
|
MRI's measure and do what |
distinguish soft tissue, ligaments, and muscles |
|
Define anatomical position |
upright, thumbs laterally out, and feet together
|
|
explain and define the types of anatomical planes |
1. coronal 2. Saggital 3. Median 4. Tansverse
|
|
Be able to define proximal, distal |
use body |
|
anterior is to ..... as posterior is to... |
ventral, dorsal |
|
Define unilateral, ipsilateral, bilateral, and contralateral |
1) one side 2)same side 3)both sides 4)opposite sides |
|
flexion and extension occur on what plane |
saggital |
|
what plane does abduction adduction occur |
coronal |
|
what plane does lateral and medial rotation occur |
transverse |
|
what plane does subination and pronation occur |
transverse |
|
in terms of flexion and extension the beginning point is what degress and what is the end |
beginning is 180, ending is less than 180 |
|
name the 5 functions of bones |
1. protect vital organs 2. structural support of body 3. levers for muscles to produce movement 4. resovoir for calcium and phosphorous 5. marrow where blood cells are formed
|
|
name the two types of bones |
1. spongy 2. compact
|
|
spongy bone is made of what two things |
trabecular and cancellous |
|
compact is what kind of bone |
compact and dense |
|
what is medullary bone |
the marrow cavity |
|
give examples of long bone |
humerous, phalanges and clavice |
|
give examples of short bone |
tarsals and carpals |
|
give examples of flat bones |
ribs, sternum, and cranial valut bonesq |
|
what are some irregular bones |
vertebrae and sphenoid |
|
what are some sesamoid bones |
patella , because they develop with the tendons |
|
what are some pneumatic bones |
mastoid part of temporal bone, paranl sinus |
|
what are some accessory bones |
in foot |
|
what is a bone |
living tissue |
|
what is the process of ossification |
process of bone formation |
|
what is osteoblast |
bone forming cells |
|
what is an osteocyte |
bone cells |
|
osteoclasts |
bone resorption cells, happens when you live sedentary life, eat away at bones |
|
what is a chondrocyte |
cartilage cells |
|
what is a chondroblast |
cartilage forming cells |
|
name the two ossifications that bones go through for bone development |
intramembranous and endochondal |
|
intramembranous ossification also knows as... ossification goes through what process |
1) direct 2) mesenchyme to bone... it is a rapid process
|
|
define endochondral ossification |
also known as indirect, it is slower, and it goes from mesenchyme to cartilage to bone |
|
when does primary ossification occur in endochondral ossification |
between 7 and 12 weeks of life |
|
blood vessles invade in the middle of endochondral ossification to do what |
give bone nutrients and oxygen |
|
when does the secondary center of ossification occur and what does that mean |
it occurs after birth, and it is when the cartilage is gone |
|
where does the diaphysis grow? |
it grows in the region of the growth plate |
|
where does the metaphysis grow |
it grow by the proliferation of cartilage |
|
what is the process called when bone replaces cartiglege at the growth plate and the growth ceases and the diaphysis fuses with the epiphysis |
synostosis |
|
how many years earlier does fusion occur for women over males |
1 to 2 years |
|
why don't bones have cells at the ends to produce growth |
because need joints at all times, can damage growing tissue, and bone must be capable to supporting loads |
|
the upper limb is divided into what |
shoulder arm elbow forearm wrist hand |
|
when the clavicle is fractured what happens |
the sternocleidomastoid muscle pulls medial part superiorly and the later part droops |
