shaft; which is made up of thich compact bone surronding the hollow medullary cavity
epiphysis
end of the long bone
Flat bone
rib

ischuim - you sit on
Ossification
The process of replacing cartilaginous structure of the bone
pertiosteum
a fibrous membrane coverin the entire bone

Synarthrodial
Immovable joints
Amphearthrodial
Cartilagionus ( Slight moveable)
Diathrodial
freely moveable ( knee and elbow)
Flexion
Shortening of a muscle, flex, concentric
Extension
straightout
Hyperextension
bending all the back (wrist)
Abduction
is going out / away
Adduction
coming toward the body
Rotation
around the joint in the same plane
Curcumdution
moving in circular movement
Concentric
Is shortening
Eccentric
is Lenghting
agonist
prime mover
antagonist
lenghtens as the agonist shortens
Ballistic Movement
Fast movement (throughing a ball)
Isometric action
No change in muscle length; BP and HR increase
Torque
The effect produced when a force causes rotation; T = F* FA
Rotational Inertia
movement of rotating aroun an axis or joint
Angular Momentum
the way something is moving and the speed something is moving; a moving body part
Transger of angular momentum
moving from one body segment to another can ve achieved by stablizing the intial moving body part at a joint
ligament
which are tough, frbrous band of connective tissue, connect the bones to each other
articular capsule
a ligamentous structure that may be fairly thin or may ve thick enough to be considered a seperate ligament
Synovial membrane
lines the inner surface of the capsule
Articular cartilage
a thin layer of hyaline cartilage covering the articulating surfaces that provides a frictionless surface and helps absorb shock
elasticity
abiliyt to lengthen passively and return to their normal length; also affect rane of movement
Tendon
the passive part of the musch made up of elastic connective tissues
Motor unit
consists of a single moter nuron and its branches and the muscle fiber innervated by the motor neruron
Recruitment
Muscular tension increases as a result of the stimulation of more motor unit
Muscle group
includes all of the muscles that cause the same movement at the same joint
stability
the ease with which balance can be maintained
Inversion
can be considered a combination of pronation and adduction
eversion
comination of supination and abduction
Menisci
the partial, semilunar-shaped disks between the femau and tibia at the knee
Bursae
sacs of synovial fluid that lie between muscles, tendon, and bones, also reduce friction between the tissues and act as shock absorbers
long bones
found in the limbs and digits, serve primarily as levers for movement
