Module 06 Case Study: Articulations and Nerve Tissue Part I— “Jill” Questions 1. What is the difference between a tendon and ligament? (1 point) --The difference between a tendon and a ligament is that a tendon attaches to muscle. (ie. muscle-bone‚ muscle-muscle‚ muscle- skin) A ligament‚ however‚ attaches to cartilage. (ie. cartilage-bone‚ cartilage-cartilage‚ bone-bone) 2. What bones form the articulation (joint) of the ankle? Did Jill most likely sprain or strain her ankle? Explain your

improving the performance and movement efficiency. Strength training is a sort of physical exercise using resistance to induce muscular contraction which will build the strength and anaerobic endurance. The structures involved are muscles‚ tendons‚ ligaments and bones. By training regularly with activities such as lifting weights‚ working with resistance bands or climbing stairs‚ a person is able to increase their muscular strength‚ thus improving movement efficiency and

tendons: attach the hamstring muscles to the tibia * Calf tendons: attach the calf muscles to the femur Knee Ligaments Strong fibrous bands‚ called ligaments‚ support the knee. Injuries to the knee ligaments are common. The knee ligaments include: * Lateral collateral ligament: stabilizes the knee from stress applied to the sides of the knee * Medial collateral ligament: stabilizes the knee from stress applied to the sides of the

the joint. Adding to the joints stability are the two major pairs of ligaments: the cruciates and collaterals.(1) The knee is part of a chain that includes the pelvis‚ hip‚ and upper leg above‚ and the lower leg‚ ankle and foot below. All of these work together and depend on each other for function and movement. The cruciates are name because of their cross-configuration within the joint. The anterior cruciate ligament attaches to the tibia on its anterior-superior surface‚ crossing through

Introduction Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome is a term used to describe pain in the front of the knee around the patella. It is a condition in which the cartilage under the patella is damaged due to an injury or a chronic stress. Patellofemoral pain syndrome is also known as runner’s knee‚ jumper’s knee‚ and can also be referred to as‚ anterior knee pain syndrome. Patellofemoral pain syndrome is more commonly found in the female sex‚ and in young adult athletes. However‚ studies have shown that patellofemoral

This strains the lateral (outside) ligaments of the ankle and the Inferior TibFib joint. The reverse injury an “eversion” strain is less common and involves
