Sacrum/Femur/Tibia & Fibula/Ribs
Four parts of the femur
Head Greater trochanter Lesser trochanter Lower extremity
sasamoid bones
1. Tarsals (heel and ankle) 2. Metatarsals (middle of the foot) 3. Phalanges (bones of the bones)
posterior end
All of the ribs articulate with the thoracic vertebrae at their ______ ___
walking and standing
Main two functions of the foot is:
the sacrum
Sometimes referred to as S1
shaft
The ________ of the femur is fairly cylindrical and bowelled with forward convexity
talus
The bone which articulates with the tibia and fibula is the ______
thigh bone
The femur also known as the ____ ____ is the longest bone of the human skeleton
tibia
The femur articulates with the _____
synovial joint
The fibula is connected by a ____ _____ to the other shin bone of the tibia.
tibiofemeral joint
The knee joint medically known as the "_________" is the largest joint in the body
long bones
The lower leg bones are called _________
form a hinge joint
The main job of the tibia is to _______________ with the femur which allows you to run, kick, etc
Sartorius, Quadriceps
The muscles in the front of the thigh are the:
the central sacrum and the coccyx
The pelvis made up of the bowl shaped hip bones _______ & ________
extensor
The quadriceps femorisis an ______ muscle of the knee joint
tarsus, calcaneus
The seven bones of the _____ make up the posterior section of the foot, with the ______ forming the heel- which is called the heel
27
The skeleton of the foot is made up of ___ bones including the sasamoids and can be divided into three sections
midline of the chest
The sternum is divided into three sections located at the:
Anterior ligament, Posterior ligament, and Inferior transverse ligament
The three ligaments to the tibia and fibula are:
Medial collateral, Lateral collateral, Anterior cruciate, and Posterior cruciate
There are four ligaments present at the knee joint
because it supports the body
Why is this bone one of the strongest bones in the skeletal system?
The fibula
____ ______ is what makes your outer ankle
The tibia
____ _______ is what makes your inner ankle bone.
The distal end
________ of the tibia makes up much of the ankle bone
The femur
also called the upper leg bone, is the longest and strongest bone in the body
The tarsals
ankle bones
Hallux
big toe
The cuboids and the cuneiform
bones articulating with five metatarsals
Ankle
deltoid ligament
The fibula
forms as the lateral part of the ankle joint preventing dislocations in that direction
The fibula
is a much more slender bone than the tibia and occupies a lateral position in the lower leg.
The tibia
is also called the shin bone and shank bone could be stronger and also the larger bone of the lower leg, compared to the fibula
the sternum
is inclined downwards and a little forward.
The tibia
is the medial and strongest bone of the lower leg and is the second largest bone of the human skeleton
The tibia
is the stronger of the two bones
The tibia
known as the skin bone
the fibular
known as the smallest of the bone of the lower leg.
coccyx
known as the tail bone
The femur
located between the hip bone and the knee
Muscles
long flexor and extensor
The foot
metatarsals
Abduction
move away from the body
Adduction
move toward the body
media malleous
the tibia has distal projection on its medial side called the_____ ______
Rib shafts
these are elastic and fragile
Hamstring muscles
very powerful muscles (biceps femoris) also flexor muscles and flexes the knee joint.
