3. In the case study, what type of joint did Torin injure? What is the range of motion of this joint?…
Briefly describe the type of joint, movement allowed at the joint, and primary structures associated to the joint (i.e. ligaments, muscles/tendons, cartilage/bursae, etc.);…
The ends of bones that form joints with adjacent bones are called the _ epiphyses _.…
7. Explain how the movements of the reattached arm might be altered after the reattachment.…
Describe the location, composition and function of the epiphyseal plate. Located in the metaphysis where the bone forms an articulation with another bone, composed of hyaline cartilage, reduces fiction and absorbs shock at freely movable joints.…
11. Name the large lateral muscle responsible for adduction, extension, and medial rotation of the humerus.Teres…
*Depressions and openings, which allow the passage of soft tissues(such as blood vessels and nerves) or form joints, and second the processes, which are projections or outgrowths that either help form joint or serve as attachment point for connective tissue.…
B. Hinge joints like the elbow and knee have limited movement. Why arethese types of joints more prone to injury?…
5.7.1 - Recall the way in which muscles, tendons, the skeleton and ligaments interact to enable movement including antagonistic muscle pairs, extensors and flexors.…
There are six types of synovial joints. Gilding joints, such as carpals of the wrist, these joints allow only gliding or sliding movements. Hinge joints, act as a door hinge does, allowing flexion and extension in just one plane. Pivot joints one bone rotates about another. Condyloid joints two bones fit together with an odd shape these joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction movements. Saddle joints, which resemble a saddle, permits the same movement as the condyloid joints, but allow greater movement. Ball and socket joints allow all movement except gliding. Compound joints modified hinge joints condylar joints (condyles of the femur join with condyles of tibia) and saddle joint (lower end of femur joins with patella.) The function of the synovial joints are to allow…
7. Explain how the movements of the reattached arm might be altered after the reattachment.…
Support: the framework that supports the body and cradles the organs. Protection: surrounds the brain, spinal cord, and vital organs. Movement: bones are levers for muscles. Minerals: bones store calcium and phosphate.…
In the upper arm, the muscles responsible for flexing and extending the arm at the elbow joint are the biceps, brachialis, and triceps. In the upper leg, the muscles responsible for flexing and extending the limb at the knee are the hamstrings (biceps femoris, semimembranosus and semitendonosus muscles), the gastrocnemius (also affects foot movement), and the quadriceps femoris (YouTube, n.d.) .…
1. Connective Tissue gives shape to organs and holds them in place. Blood and bones would be examples.…
Typically, when a muscle contracts it _________, bringing the ________ attachment site towards the _________attachment site.…
