bone
-rigid framework
-system of levers for movement
-made of Ca, collagen and H20
-Ca provides the stiffness + strength of bone
-Collagen provides tensile strength bend but dont break
cortical -structure
-low porosity, stiff, more stess, but less strain, shafts of long bone
trabecular - structure
-high porosity, honeycomb structure, spongy bone, low in Ca, spinal column, varies w/age and health
-bone is strongest agains compressing, weakest against shear
axial
-form axis of body
-skull, vertebrae, sternum and ribs
appendicular
-peripheral
-arms and legs
short
shock ansorbing
types of bones
short, flat, irregular, long
long
-make up framework of appendicular skeleton
-adapt to size and weight for biomechanical functions
longitudinal
-occurs at the epiphyses located at each end of bone
-close around age 18
circumferential
-occurs thoughout life
-as new bone is formed, old bone resorbed
wolff's law
density, shape, and size of bones are a function of the magnitude and direction of the mechanical stresses that act on the bone
osteoporosis
a disorder causing decrease bone mass and strength w/one or more resulting factors
female athlete triad
-disordered eating
-amenorrhea
-osteoporosis, irreversible bone loss
synarthroses
-little no movement
-sutures, skull
-syndesmosis, inferior tib-fib joint
amphiarthroses
-slightly movable
-sternocoastal joint, pubic symphysis, vertbral joint
diarthroses
-freely movable
-hinge -elbow
-saddle -thumb
-ball and socket -hip and shoulder
uniaxial
1 plane of motion - elbow
biaxial
2 plane of motion -ankel
triaxial
3 planes of motion -shoulder
joint flexibilty
describes ROM - angle through which a joint moves
static
passive movement from outside source
dynamic
actively move
what affects joint flexibility
-shape of joint, muscle and fat tissue
-dominant vs. non-dominant
why we warm up
when tissue temp increase, extensibility of the collagen material increase
