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 |
