Six functions of the integumentary system

1. Protection


2. Heat regulation


3. Secretion and excretion


4. Sensation


5. Absorption


6. Respiration

The two layers of the skin are

The epidermis and the dermis

Blank and blank Supply nutrients to the skin

Blood and lymph

Massage blank blank in the body

Increases circulation

Name and define the two glands

Sebaceous glands are connected to hair follicles and produce sebum that lubricates and moisturizes the skin- oil glands


Sudoriferous glands respond to elevated body temperatures- sweat glands


A lesion is

A structural change in the tissues caused by injury or disease.

5 main functions of the skeletal system

1. To offer a framework that supports body structures


2. To protect delicate internal organs and tissues


3. Provide attachments for muscles and act as levers in conjunction with muscles to produce movement


4. To manufacture blood cells


5. To store minerals

Bones of axial and appendicular skeleton

Axial skeleton- skull, thorax, vertabral column, and hyoid bone.


Appendicular skeleton- upper extremities including clavicle and scapula and lower extremities including pelvis


How many bones are there

206 bones

Define sprain and classify a Class 1 2 and 3 sprain

A sprain is an injury to a joint that results in the stretching or tearing of the ligaments.


Class 1 sprain- there is a stretching ligaments some discomfort and minimal loss of function


Class 2 sprain- the ligament is torn with some loss of function. discoloration from tissue damage and bleeding might be present


Class 3 sprain- this is the most severe sprain in which the ligaments are torn and there is internal bleeding and severe loss of function

Define Bursa and bursitis

Bersa are fibrous Sac lined with synovial membrane and lubricated with synovial fluid


Bursitis is an inflammation of the small fluid-filled sacs located near the joints

About how many bursa are there in the body

There are about 160

Define ligaments and cartilage

Ligaments are bands or sheets of fibrous tissue that connects bone to bone.


Cartilage also called gristle is a firm, tough, elastic substance similar to Bone but without the mineral content

About how many muscles are in the body

About 600 muscles in the body

Muscles composed of about blank blank of body weight

40 - 60% of body weight

Name and define three different muscle types and whether they are striated or voluntary

Skeletal muscles are voluntary and striated


Smooth muscles are not striated and involuntary


Cardiac muscle is only found in the heart and is striated and involuntary

Blank is the combination of muscle tissue and its related connective tissue or fascia

Myofascial

Name two distinct types of muscle fibers and how they respond to stress

Postural- type 1- slow-twitch


They become short and tight also called hypertonicity


Phasic- type 2- fast twitchThey respond by weakening



They respond by weakening


They respond by weakening


weakening

Origin of muscle

Is the point where the end of a muscle is anchored to an immovable section of skeleton

Insertion of muscle

Is the more mobile attachment of muscle to bone

Isometric contraction

Occurs when a muscle contracts and the end of the muscle do not move

Isotonic contraction

Occurs when a muscle contracts and the distance between the end of the muscle changes

Eccentric contraction

Occurs when a muscle contracts while the ends of the muscle move farther apart also called elongation

Prime mover and Agonist

The primary muscle responsible for a specific movement

Antagonist

The muscle that performs the opposite movement of The Agonist

Synergists

The muscles that assist The Agonist

Fixator

Muscles that act to stabilize a body part so that another muscle can act on an adjacent limb or body part

Reciprocal inhibition

Occurs when a muscle acting on a joint contracts and the opposing muscle is reflexively inhibited

Define muscle spasm

A sudden involuntary contraction of a muscle or group of muscles

Blank stretch acute cramp


Reciprocal inhibition is blank

Don't stretch acute cramp


Reciprocal inhibition is indicated

Contractures definition

Shortened contracted muscles or group of muscles in which the muscle atrophies and shrinks while the connective tissue thickens.


Can only help in the early stages

Definition of muscle strain and a list of grade 1 2 and 3 definition

A muscle strain is a torn or pulled muscle and is the most common injury to muscle.


Grade 1- An over stretching of a few of the muscle fibers with a minimal tearing of the fibers. There's some pain but no loss of function and no palpable or visual indications


Grade 2- involves a partial tear of between 10 and 50% of the muscle fibers. There is considerable pain and some loss of function.


Grade 3- is the most severe injury with between fifty and a hundred percent muscles tearing. There is a possible depression and are bunching of the muscle with severe pain and total or near total loss of muscle function.

Three components of movement

Rotation


Abduction and adduction


flexion and extension

Tendonitis definition

Inflammation of the tendon

Tendinosis

Degenerative condition of a tendon that does not involve any inflammation
