  • Front
  • Back
BALL AND SOCKET JOINT
Movable joint: Diarthroses
Movement in many directions
Examples shoulder and hip joint
LONG BONE
Typically longer than wide
Have a shaft with heads at both ends
Contain mostly compact bone
Examples: Femur, humerus
SHORT BONE
Generally cube-shape
Contain mostly spongy bone
Examples: Carpals, tarsals
IRREGULAR BONE
Irregular shape
Do not fit into other bone classification categories
Example: Vertebrae and hip
FLAT BONE
Thin and flattened
Usually curved
Thin layers of compact bone around a layer of spongy bone
Examples: Skull, ribs, sternum
PELVIC GRIDDLE MEN VS. WOMEN
Male pelvis is deep and narrow
Female pelvis broad and shallow, wider inlet to allow babies head to go thorough. Wider pubic angle.
ACETABULUM
Concave surface of the pelvis. The head of the femur meets with the pelvis at the acetabulum, forming the hip joint.
TENDON
Attaches Muscle to bone
LIGAMENTS
Attaches bone to bone
MUSCLES INVOLVED IN RESPIRATION
Principal muscles are the diaphragm, intercostal muscles.
Intercostal muscles elevate the ribs
Diaphragm contracts to increase vertical dimension of thoracic cavity.
SMOOTH MUSCLE
Nonstriated
involuntary muscle
Found in walls of hollow visceral structures
Spindle-shaped cells
Single nucleus
Also known as Visceral muscle
SKELETAL MUSCLE
Striated
voluntary muscle
Cells are multinucleate
Makes regular muscles
CARDIAC MUSCLE
Dark bands called intercalated disks that are found between the cells.
Has striations
Single nucleus
Involuntary
Found only in the heart
INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION SITES
Deltoid (Arm)
Vastus Lateralis (side of leg)
Gluteus (Butt)
ONLY MOVABLE JOINT IN THE HEAD?
MANDIBLE
WHY DO WE HAVE SINUSES IN CRANIUM?
SO IT IS LIGHTER
SHOULDER GRIDLE
SCAPULA + CLAVICLE
FORMAL NAME FOR KNEE CAP?
PATELLA
MUSCLES THAT MOVE LOWER EXTREMITY?
Iliopsoas: flexes thigh
Gluteus Maximus: extends Thigh

Adductor muscles: adduct thighs

Hamstring: flexes lower leg
Quadriceps femoris: extends lower leg

Gastrocnemius, Tibialis anterior and Peroneus group: allow foot movement
MUSCLES OF ABDOMEN
Abdominal: Rectus Abdominis
External and Internal Oblique
Transverse Abdominis
MUSCLE THAT MOVES HEAD
STERNOCLEIDOMASTOID - Flexes head
ANKLE BONES
Calcaneus (heel bone),
tarsals (ankle bone)
Metatarsals
Phalanges (toe bones).
BICEPS
Origin: coracoid process of the scapula.
Distally, biceps attaches to (inserts into) the radial tuberosity.
EXPLAIN ALL OR NOTHING CONCEPT FOR MUSCLES
There needs to be a certain level of stimulation for muscle to contract. If the stimulus is enough the muscle will contract and is unstoppable.
DIARTHROSES JOINT
Free movement
Most joints belong to this class
Joint capsule and ligaments holding adjoining bones together but permit movement at joint.
Articular cartilage-covers joint ends of bones.
Synovial membrane-lines joint capsule and secretes lubricating fluid
MOTOR UNIT
Motor neuron that innervates muscle fiber
THRESHOLD STIMULUS
stimulus that is just strong enough to evoke a response
RIBS
24 ribs (12 pairs).
first seven sets "true ribs" directly attached to the sternum through the costal cartilage. The following five sets "false ribs", three of these sharing a common cartilaginous connection to the sternum, while the last two (eleventh and twelfth ribs) are termed floating ribs They are attached to the vertebrae only
TYPES OF BONE
Spongy: thread of trabeculae surrounded by network of open spaces, contains red bone marrow. Located in epiphysis
Compact: har and dense, diaphysis
Cartilage: chondrocyte cell, flexible
FUNCTIONS OF SKELETAL MUSCLE
Movement

Posture: tonic contraction, enables us to maintain body position. Only a few of a muscle’s fibers shorten at one time Produce no movement of body parts

Heat production Fever: elevated body temperature. Hypothermia: reduced body temperature
PRIME MOVER
SYNERGYST
ANTAGONIST
Prime mover: muscle whose contraction is mainly responsible for producing a given movement
Synergist: muscle that helps the prime muscle move.
Antagonist: oppose the action of a prime mover
WAYS FOR MUSCLE TO MAKE ENERGY (ATP)
Glycolisis:30 – 60 sec of energy, Anaerobic. Glucose is broken down to pyruvic acid and then to lactic acid (makes muscles sore).1 glucose makes 2 ATPs Not an efficient process, but is does happen fast
Phosphorilation:Uses creatin phosphate: 1 CP gives 1 ATP Anaerobic reaction
Krebs Cycle:Needs Oxygen: Aerobic. Generates 36 ATPs every 1 glucose
Efficient process.
ATROPHY
HYPERTROPHY
Prolonged inactivity causes disuse: atrophy
Hypertrophy: Regular exercise increases muscle size,(No more muscle fibers, just size increase)
SYNARTHROSES
AMPHYANTHROSES
DIARTHROSES
Synarthroses: No movement

Amphiarthroses ;Slight movement

Diarthroses:Free movement
