axil skeleton

Back (Answer)

• axis that everything is attached to (body) • skull, vertebrae, sternum, ribs, sacrum, coccyx • be able to fill out on diagram

#2
Front (Question)

appendicular skeleton

Back (Answer)

• limbs • clavicle, scapula, humerus, ulna, radius, carpal and tarsal bones, femur, patella, fibula, tibia • be able to fill out on diagram

#3
Front (Question)

vertebrae column, bones in each section

Back (Answer)

• hollow centre which spinal cord travels through • top to bottom vertebrae increases in size • cervical (7) • thoracic (12) • lumbar (5) • sacrum (5) -fused • coccyx (4) - fused

#4
Front (Question)

what is a joint

Back (Answer)

where two or more bones meet to allow movement

#5
Front (Question)

fibrous joint

Back (Answer)

• fixed, immoveable • characterised by synovial fluid • e.g cranium and sacrum

#6
Front (Question)

cartilaginous joint

Back (Answer)

• cartilage joins, slightly moveable • e.g ribs and vertebrae

#7
Front (Question)

synovial joint

Back (Answer)

• freely moveable • e.g knee, arms, hip

#8
Front (Question)

how is movement created in a joint

Back (Answer)

results from the contraction or relaxation of the muscles that are attached to the bones on either side.

#9
Front (Question)

function of cartilage

Back (Answer)

smooth white tissue that covers the ends of bones where they come together to form joints

#10
Front (Question)

function of bursa

Back (Answer)

fluid filled sac that works as a cushion to reduce friction between tissue

#11
Front (Question)

function of synovial fluid

Back (Answer)

provides a cushion between bones and tendons and/or muscle around a joint

#12
Front (Question)

function of ligament

Back (Answer)

connects bone to bone

#13
Front (Question)

compare hip and should gridle

Back (Answer)

hip - weight bearing joint, less prone to popping out, more protected, sits deeper in the socket and is surrounded by stronger muscles shoulder - more prone to popping out, socket is shallower, and is a smaller ball

#14
Front (Question)

what is hyperextension

Back (Answer)

• excessive movement of a joint in one direction • the joint has been forced to move beyond its normal range of motion.

#15
Front (Question)

hinge joint

Back (Answer)

• flexion and extension • e.g elbow

#16
Front (Question)

pivot joint

Back (Answer)

• pronation , supination, rotation • radius, humerus

#17
Front (Question)

ball and socket joint

Back (Answer)

• allows movement in all axis • flexion and extension -rotation and circumduction • abduction and adduction • e.g hip and shoulder

#18
Front (Question)

ellipsoid joint

Back (Answer)

• flexion and extension • abduction and adduction • circumduction • e.g wrist

#19
Front (Question)

saddle joint

Back (Answer)

• limited rotation • flexion and extension • abduction and adduction • e.g thumb

#20
Front (Question)

plane joint

Back (Answer)

gliding and rotating disks - e.g clavicle and scapula

#21
Front (Question)

gliding joint

Back (Answer)

• allows sideways, back and forward • tarsels and vertebrae

#22
Front (Question)

functions of skeletal system

Back (Answer)

• protection of vital organs • provided framework • allow for movement • red blood cells produced in long bones • storage of vitamins and minerals

#23
Front (Question)

types of bones

Back (Answer)

long - femur, humerus short - tarsles and carpels flat bone - cranium, scapula irregular bone - vertebrae sesamoid bones - patella

#24
Front (Question)

uni-axil, bi-axil and tri-axil joints

Back (Answer)

uni-axil - hinge, pivot bi-axil - condyloid, gliding, saddle tri-axil- ball and socket
