move upper and lower limbs and stabilize pectoral and pelvic girdles 1) Location in the body 2) Part of skeleton they move
Nerves with intermediate rami fibers (C6-C8) innervate what muscles?
muscles that act at the elbow and wrist
Each compartment is innervated by a single
nerve (sometimes 2)
origin vs. insertion- naming and mobility
origin is always named first and is the less movable attachment of a muscle, insertion is named second and is the more movable attachment (ex brachioradialis muscle in forearm originates on the bone of the brachium, the humerus, and inserts on the radius)
Extrinsic muscles of the hand originate
originates outside of hand but insert in hand
Muscles of the Anterior Forearm- deep layer:
originates within the forearm- flexor pollicus longus, flexor digitorum profundus, pronator quadratus
Fat pads around joint what is it and function?
packing material; also provide some protection Ex. in knee
This is the only way the upper limbs are attached to the trunk, via the...
pectoral girdle
What are 3 muscles that attach to the coracoid process?
pectoralis minor biceps brachii (short head) coracobracialis
*Muscles that act on the hip originate on what?
pelvis or vertebral column

plane, hinge, pivot, condylar, saddle, ball and socket
Gerdy's tubercle
point just lateral to tibial tuberosity
Arteries of the Leg- posterior tibial artery: located where and supplies what other arteries?
posterior compartments- supplies posterior muscles of the leg Medial and lateral plantar arteries in the foot
The biceps femoris is located in the __________. - posterior thigh - anterior thigh - anterior arm - posterior arm
posterior thigh
Palmaris longus- pretty insignificant
pretty insignificant, helps with climbing- so some people don't have one
Features: Superior and inferior rami Pubic body Pubic crest Pubic tubercle Pectineal line Pubic symphysis Obturator foramen --are characteristic of what bone?
pubis---lies almost horizontal, bladder kind of rests on it
When move knee forward and medially- puts what ligament in a bad location- and is the point where what type of injury happen most often?
puts ACL in a bad location---when most ACL tears happen= non-contact injuries
Break of the humerus near the radial groove can cause damage to?
radial nerve
Mobility vs. Stability of joints: amphiarthrosis examples
radioulnar, symphysis
Starting at the spinal cord and proceeding distally, the subdivisions of the brachial plexus are rami, divisions, cords, trunks. rami, trunks, divisions, cords. trunks, divisions, cords, rami. divisions, rami, trunks, cords.
rami, trunks, divisions, cords
The atlas to axis joint would exhibit
rotation
Bursae around joint what is it and function?
sac containing synovial fluid Function: reduce friction b/w body elements Often move over bone can get very inflamed (bursitis)- problematic b/c often close to surface so infection is likely
The anterior muscles of the thigh that originate on the os coxae are __________. - sartorius; vastus medialis - sartorius; rectus femoris - rectus femoris; vastus medialis - vastus lateralis; vastus medialis
sartorius; rectus femoris
What is the most susceptible carpal bone to fracture in the wrist?
scaphoid- scaphoid fracture occurs when one falls on an outstretched hand
Synovial Joints ***Richly supplied with what?
sensory nerves! - Detect pain Most monitor how much the capsule is being stretched (proprioception- via spinocerebellar pathway)
Articular surfaces of joints
shape influences movements possible and stability Ex. Shoulder vs. hip Smaller size of shoulder- high mobility, low stability Larger size of hip- low mobility, higher stability
Skeletal muscle architecture- thin sheaths
strengthen and compress body wall (like muscles of core, like one flat muscle that wraps)
Great and small saphenous veins are what in the lower extremity?
superficial veins of the leg and thigh- Drain skin and more superficial structures - Saphenous vein blood continuously shunted to deep veins by perforating veins - perforating veins- continuously take blood from saphenous veins to deep veins so contraction of muscles can help push blood back to heart
pelvic inlet
superior to entrance to true pelvis, at pelvic brim
false pelvis
superior to pelvic brim Where wing part of ilium comes up Bound by wings of ilium and abdominal wall anteriorly Contains abdominal organs**
Muscles in the same compartment have similar actions and act as
synergists
Force or power of a muscle depends on what?
the number of fibers it contains- (more muscle fibers make it stronger, but can't contract very far)
Thenar group muscles affect the motion of the
thumb
Features: Medial and lateral condyles Fibular articular facet Tibial tuberosity Gerdy's Tubercle Pes Anserine Insertion Tibial border Superior and Inferior tibiofibular joints ---are characteristic of what bone?

What is the only weight-bearing bone in the leg?
tibia
Tibia and fibula- two bones making up what region? and location- (Ex. is tibia medial or lateral

EXAM Q: If you have pain in lower part of your body, you can have further pain where?
you can have further pain upwards later on. If flat foot out =can end up with IT band pain in hip (ex.--if you have a hurt ankle, you'll start favoring it, which could make your knee funky, and if your knee starts to hurt you might favor it, and that could cause hip issues)
