Articular processes of vertebrae

Each vertebra has articular processes on both its superior and inferior surfaces that project from the junction between the pedicles and laminae. The inferior articular processes of each vertebra articulate with the superior articular processes of the vertebra im- mediately inferior to it. Each articular process has a smooth surface, called an articular facet (fas′et, fă-set′). The angles of these facets differ along the length of the vertebral column contributing to differ- ent movements along the vertebral column.

How do muscles move bone?

Muscles span (typically) between one bone and another, spanning over at least one joint attachment locations: ---Origin of a muscle = less mobile (attachment on the axial skeleton, more medial or proximal attachment) ---Insertion of a muscle = more mobile (attachment on the appendicular skeleton, more lateral or distal attachment) When a muscle contracts, it does so linearly by bringing the insertion closer to the origin

apocrine sweat glands

NOT apocrine glands (actually just merocrine glands: exocytosis of secretion granules through the surface of the epithelium) exhibit a duct with a large lumen to convey secretion products into a hair follicle produce viscous, complex secretion influenced by hormones=proteins, lipids, cell fragments ---may act in signaling/communication (pheromones) ---bacteria feast on these cell fragments and make odors release sweat onto hair follicles of axillary (armpits), anal, areolar and pubic regions become active after puberty

pes anserinus

The area of tendon insertion on the proximal, anteromedial tibia is known as the Pes anserinus [pes = foot, anser = goose; the "goose foot"]: a common tendon of 3 muscles that looks like the three muscles that looks like the three webbed toes of a goose. A mnemonic to recall the muscle that insert here is, "Say Grace before Tea" in order from anterior to posterior. Sartorius Gracilis semiTendinosus

biceps brachii

The biceps brachii is a large, two-headed muscle on the anterior surface of the humerus. This muscle flexes the forearm and is a powerful supinator of the forearm when the elbow is flexed. (An example of this supi- nation movement occurs when you tighten a screw with your right hand.) The tendon of the long head of the biceps brachii crosses the shoulder joint, and so this muscle helps flex the humerus as well (al- beit weakly).

Sternal angle of sternum

The body and the manubrium articulate at the sternal angle, a horizontal ridge that may be palpated under the skin. The sternal angle is an important landmark in that the costal cartilages of the second ribs attach there; thus, it may be used to count the ribs.

Phalanges (hand)

The bones of the digits are the phalanges (fă-lan′jēz; sing., phalanx, fā′langks; line of soldiers). There are three phalanges in each of the second through fifth fingers and two phalanges only in the thumb hand flexors insertion site (anterior surface) hand extensors insertion site (posterior surface)

coracoid process of scapula

The coracoid (kōr′ă-koyd; korakodes = like a crow's beak) process is the smaller, more anterior projection. 3 muscles have attachments: short head of biceps brachii (origin), coracobrachialis (origin), and pectoralis minor (insertion) pectoralis minor insertion site Coracobrachialis origin site biceps brachii short head origin site coraCoid process is on the sCapula imagine a crow sitting upon one's shoulder looking forward

coronal suture

The coronal (kō-r′ŏ-năl; corona = crown; think coronation) suture extends across the superior surface of the skull along a coronal (or frontal) plane. It represents the articulation between the anterior frontal bone and the more posterior parietal bones.

deltoid

The deltoid is a thick, powerful muscle that functions as a prime abductor of the arm and forms the rounded contour of the shoulder. There are three different proximal attachment points for the deltoid muscle fibers, and these different fiber groups all perform different functions: (1) The anterior fibers flex and medially rotate the arm. (2) The middle fibers abduct the arm; in fact, the deltoid is the prime abductor of the arm. (3) The posterior fibers extend and laterally rotate the arm.

Trochlea of humerus

The distal end of the humerus also has two smooth, curved surfaces for articulation with the bones of the forearm. The pulley-shaped trochlea [trok′lē-ă; trochileia = a pulley; acts like a pulley with the trochlear notch of the ulna as the rope] is located medially and articulates with the trochlear notch of the ulna. CRAzy TULips Capitalum = RAdius Trochlear = ULnar

capitulum of humerus

The distal end of the humerus also has two smooth, curved surfaces for articulation with the bones of the forearm. The rounded capitulum (kă-pit′yū-lŭm; caput = head) is located laterally and articulates with the head of the radius. CRAzy TULips Capitalum = RAdius Trochlear = ULnar

The external occipital crest projects in a posterior direction from the foramen magnum, ending in the external occipital protuberance (prō-tū′bĕr-ăns). trapezius origin site (elevates, depresses, adducts scapula)

Acetabulum (composed of all three coxal bones)

The femur articulates with a deep, curved depression on the lat- eral surface of the os coxae called the acetabulum ["little cup": In ancient dining, an acetabulum was a vinegar-cup, which, from the fondness of the Greeks and Romans for vinegar, was probably always placed on the table at meals to dip the food in before eating it.]

posterior inferior iliac spine

The iliac crest arises anteriorly from a projection called the anterior superior iliac spine and extends posteriorly to the posterior superior iliac spine. Located inferiorly to the ala of the ilium are the anterior inferior iliac spine and the posterior inferior iliac spine.

posterior superior iliac spine

Incus bone

The incus (ing′kŭs) resembles an anvil and is the middle auditory ossicle. The auditory ossicles are responsible for amplifying sound waves and transmitting them into the inner ear via the oval window. When sound waves strike the tympanic membrane, the three middle ear ossicles vibrate along with the tympanic membrane, causing the footplate of the stapes to move in and out of the oval window. The movement of this ossicle initiates pressure waves in the fluid within the closed compartment of the inner ear. Because the tympanic mem- brane is 20 times greater in diameter than the stapes footplate in the oval window, sounds transmitted across the middle ear are amplified more than 20-fold, and we are able to detect very faint sounds.

alveolar process of maxillae

The inferior portions of the maxillae contain the alveolar (al-vē′ō-lăr) processes that house the upper teeth.

malleus bone

The malleus (mal′ē-ŭs) is attached to the medial surface of the tympanic membrane, and suspended by ligaments bound to the wall of the tympanic cavity. It resembles a large hammer in shape. The auditory ossicles are responsible for amplifying sound waves and transmitting them into the inner ear via the oval window. When sound waves strike the tympanic membrane, the three middle ear ossicles vibrate along with the tympanic membrane, causing the footplate of the stapes to move in and out of the oval window. The movement of this ossicle initiates pressure waves in the fluid within the closed compartment of the inner ear. Because the tympanic mem- brane is 20 times greater in diameter than the stapes footplate in the oval window, sounds transmitted across the middle ear are amplified more than 20-fold, and we are able to detect very faint sounds.

molars

The molars (mō′lăr; molaris = millstone) are the thickest and most posteriorly placed teeth. They have large, broad, flat crowns with distinctive cusps, and three or more roots. Molars are also adapted for grinding and crushing ingested materials. 2123 → 2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars, 3 molars (sometimes there's only 2 molars b/c the person had no wisdom teeth)

Adduction of the spine

The opposite of abduction is adduction (ă-dŭk′shŭn), which means to "move toward," and is the medial movement of a body part toward the body midline.

Extension (hyperextension) of the spine

The opposite of flexion is extension (eks-ten′shŭn; extensio = a stretching out), which is movement in an anterior-posterior plane that increases the angle between the articulating bones.

optic canals of anterior cranial fossa

The optic nerves (CN II) that carry visual information from the eyes to the brain travel through these canals (see section 15.8).

From top to bottom next to it are Foramen Rotundum, Ovale, and Spinosum [ROS]. Next to the dorsum sellae is the foramen lacerum [lasso]. Anterior to the dorsum sellae are the optic canals [eyes forward])

os coxae

The os coxae is commonly referred to as the hip bone (and some- times as the coxal bone or the innominate bone). Each os coxae is formed from three separate bones: the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis (figure 8.9). These three bones fuse between the ages of 13 and 15 years to form the single os coxae. Each os coxae articulates posteriorly with an auricular surface of the sacrum at the sacroiliac joint. The femur articulates with a deep, curved depression on the lat- eral surface of the os coxae called the acetabulum (as-ĕ-tab′yū-lŭm; shallow vinegar cup).

lateral masses of ethmoid bone

The paired ethmoidal labyrinths (lateral masses) contain tiny spaces called the ethmoidal sinuses, which open into both sides of the nasal cavity. The ethmoidal labyrinths are partially composed of the superior and the middle nasal conchae ["a shell"; conch is a shell-fish; nasal conachae are shell-shaped projections into the nasal cavity]

patella

The patella (pa-tel′ă; patina = shallow disk), or kneecap, is a large, roughly triangular sesamoid bone located within the tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscle (figure 8.12). The patella al- lows the tendon of the quadriceps femoris to glide more smoothly by distributing the force placed on the tendon, and it protects the knee joint.

pectoralis major

The pectoralis major is a large, thick, fan-shaped muscle that covers the superior part of the thorax. It is the principal flexor of the arm, and also adducts and medially rotates the arm.

pectoralis minor

The pectoralis minor is a thin, flat, triangular muscle deep to the pectoralis major. This muscle helps depress and protract (pull anteriorly) the scapula. When your shoulders are hunched forward, the pectoralis minor muscle is contracting.

acromial process of scapula

The spine is continuous with a larger, posterior process called the acromion (ă-krō′mē-on; akron = highest, omos = shoulder; think acropolis), which forms the bony tip of the shoulder. Palpate the superior region of your shoulder; the prominent bump you feel is the acromion. The acromion articulates with the acromial end of the clavicle. trapezius insertion site deltoid origin site

spine of scapula

The spine of the scapula is a ridge of bone on the posterior aspect of the scapula. It is easily palpated under the skin. trapezius insertion site deltoid origin site SPINE of scapula is on the back

trapezius

The trapezius is a large, flat, diamond-shaped muscle that extends from the skull and vertebral column to the pectoral girdle laterally. In general, the trapezius can elevate, depress, retract, or rotate the scapula, depending upon which fibers of the muscle are actively contracting. The superior fibers of the trapezius elevate and superi- orly rotate the scapula. The middle fibers work with the rhomboid muscles to retract the scapula, while the inferior fibers depress the scapula.

3 borders of the scapula

The triangular shape of the scapula forms three sides, or bor- ders. The superior border is the horizontal edge of the scapula su- perior to the spine of the scapula; the medial border (also called the vertebral border) is the edge of the scapula closest to the vertebrae; and the lateral border (also called the axillary border) is closest to the axilla (armpit). medial border is rhomboids insertion site medial border is serratus anterior insertion site (wraps around thorax underneath scapula) lateral border is teres minor origin site

triceps brachii

The triceps brachii is the large, three-headed muscle on the posterior surface of the arm. It is the prime extensor of the forearm, and so its action is antagonistic to that of the biceps brachii. Only the long head of the triceps brachii crosses the gleno- humeral joint, where it helps extend the humerus. All three parts of this muscle merge to form a common attachment to the olecranon of the ulna.

tubercle of rib

The tubercle (or tuberculum) of the rib has an articular facet for the costal facet on the transverse process of the thoracic vertebra.

characteristics of epithelia

-cellularity: composed almost entirely of cells bound closely together by intercellular junctions (minimal amount of extracellular matrix) -polarized: have an apical surface exposed to external environment or internal body space and basal surface attached to underlying connective tissue -held together by cell junctions -produces a basement membrane -avascular: lack blood vessels; obtain nutrients either directly across the apical surface or by diffusion across the basal surface from the underlying connective tissue ---connective tissue below basement membrane provides O2 and nutrients; disposal of CO2 and waste -innervated: richly innervates to detect changes in the environment at a particular body or organ surface region -Have high cell death and regeneration: frequently damaged or lost by abrasion; are replaced as fast as they are lost through mitotic divisions of the deepest epithelial cells (stem cells); very dynamic -Form Glands: glandular epithelia are clustered into tubes or balls that are specialized to secret various substances

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

-consists of membranous stacks (cisternae) studded with ribosomes -functions include the production of secretory proteins and lysosomes. the rough ER keeps these separate from proteins that will remain in the cytosol.

connective tissue functions

-encapsulate: surround delicate organs muscles, blood vessels, nerves -support and structural framework (bone, provide framework for body and support the soft tissues; cartilage supports body structures; connective tissue sheets form capsules to support body organs) -binding of structures (ligaments bind bone to bone; tendons bind muscle to bone; dense irregular binds skin to muscle and bone) -storage (fat is the major energy reserve; bone is reservoir for calcium and phosphorous) -transport (blood carries nutrients, gases, hormones, wastes and blood cells) -fights infection (many connective tissue types contain white blood cells; viscous matrix interferes with movement and spread of disease-causing organisms) -Insulates (fat)

blood

-fluid connective tissue -composed in part by cells and cell fragments called formed elements ---erythrocytes (red blood cells): transport oxygen and CO2 b/t lungs and body tissues ---leukocytes (white blood cells): adaptive immune response, respond to foreign pathogens -----leukocytes are divided into two classes: granulocytes and agranulocytes based on presence or absence of visible organelles called granules when stained ---platelets: involved in blood clotting -soluble protein fibers and a watery ground substance form a fluid extracellular matrix (plasma) ---helps with blood clotting ---transports nutrients, wastes, and hormones throughout body -primarily within blood vessels and the heart -leukocytes are also located in lymphatic organs and can migrate to infected or inflamed tissues in the body

dense regular connective tissue

-has collagen fibers that are packed tightly and aligned parallel to an applied force; fibroblast nuclei squeezed between layers of fibers; scarce ground substance -found in tendons and ligaments ---attaches muscle to bone (tendons) and bone to bone (ligaments), where stress is applied in a single direction -few blood vessels thus takes long time to heal following injury

cytoskeleton

-network of fibers extending throughout the cytoplasm along which materials travel around the cell. -composed of : microtubules, microfilaments, intermediate filaments. -provide shape and aid in movement of cell and cell particles, as well as anchorage for other organelles

golgi apparatus

vesicles

-small, membrane-enclosed spheres that transport materials -endocytic vesicles mediate endocytosis. 3 types: ---pinocytosis ---phagocytosis ---receptor-mediated endocytosis -secretory vesicles mediate exocytosis

bone connective tissue characteristics

-supporting connective tissue ("osseous" CT) -makes up mass of most of bones -more solid than cartilage and provides greater support -organic portions (collagen fibers, protein-carbohydrate molecules) provide flexibility and some tensile strength (stretching) -inorganic portions (mostly calcium salts; also magnesium, fluoride, and potassium, etc.) provide compressional strength; rigid design allows our bones to be both strong and lightweight at the same time: -Compact bone (aka dense or cortical bone) appears solid but is in fact perforated by a number of vascular canals. It usually forms the hard outer shell of the bone. -Spongy bone (aka trabecular or cancellous bone) is located within the interior of a bone (epiphyses). Instead of being completely solid, spongy bone contains spaces, and the bone connective tissue forms a latticework structure that is very strong, yet lightweight. Cells ---Osteoblasts (bone forming cells) ---Osteocytes (bone maintaining cells) ---Osteoclasts (bone destroying cells) Matrix ---Collagen fibers organized in spirals and lamellae (layers) ---Ground substance is sugar-protein complexes which avidly bind minerals -vascular (has blood cells) -dynamic (unlike cartilage) ---remodeling: bones constantly change structure and shape during aging and changing stressors -surfaces covered by periostem (outer) and endostem (inner)

-1452 - 1519, Italian Renaissance scientist and Anatomist -Was given permission to dissect human corpses in Florence, Milan and Rome. -He made over 240 detailed drawings and wrote about anatomy which was far ahead of his time. -Drawings were lost at his death - only later to be discovered in Windsor Castle in 1919 ! If published, would have made a major contribution to medical science.

Jacopo Berengario da Carpi

-1460 - 1530, Italian physician -Based-upon Mondino's manuscripts, produced the first anatomical text entitled: "Anatomia Carpi. Isagoge breves perlucide ac uberime, in Anatomiam humani corporis" -The first to question Galen's anatomy based-upon personal experience in dissection

Andreas Vesalius

-1514 - 1564, Belgian anatomist, physician, and author at italian university -began a movement in medicine and anatomy that was characterized by "refined observations" -Studied anatomy through meticulous dissection -Detected and boldly corrected many errors made by Aristotle and Galen -Wrote the most influential books on human anatomy called De humani corporis fabrica ("On the Fabric of the Human Body") -- the first anatomically accurate medical book, exquisite detail and quality of illustrations -the "reformer of anatomy" -- promoted the idea of "living anatomy"

john hunter

-1728 -1793. Scottish surgeon, London -Demanded that advances in medicine occur only through careful observation and strict adherence to the scientific method. -Renowned for the study of anatomy through meticulous dissection, and was a brilliant teacher. -Started his own medical school in London. Thus, all students were required to dissect. -During this period, medical students were required to obtain their own specimens for dissection.

henry gray

-1827 - 1861, English anatomist and surgeon, London -Performed meticulous dissection and published the book entitled "Gray's Anatomy" The first textbook intended to be purchased by students. -Renowned for exceptional text and illustrations.

Herophilus

-325 - 255 B. C., Greek Physician -The greatest anatomist of antiquity (the period before the Middle Ages) -Performed first scientific human cadaveric dissections in Alexandria (in modern day Egypt) Thus, the first to study anatomy from human dissection -the "father of anatomy"-- first to base conclusions upon human dissection -responsible for many of the early descriptions of anatomic structures -The first to introduce the notion of conventional terminology and created terms to describe objects - as opposed to the use of "natural names" such as "seat of soul" and "source of heat". -Believed that the brain housed the intellect - rather than the heart. -Human dissection was subsequently forbidden and was not allowed again for 1800 years until the Renaissance (around 1530 A. D.).

Aristotle

-384 - 322 BC, Greek Philosopher and Scientist -The first person to study biology systematically (called Empirical Research). Discovered patterns common to whole groups of animals. He then inferred possible causal explanations unique to all illness and disease. -He believed that the heart is the seat of the soul and the controller of the body's heat

bone types of growth

Interstitial Growth via cartilage model ---growth in length ---Cartilaginous growth (endochondral ossification) within the epiphyseal plate continues throughout childhood and adolescence ---in adulthood, the diaphysis catches up to the epiphysis and they completely fuse together. Growth in height stops. ---Damage of the growth plate can cause premature fusion of the diaphysis and epiphysis Appositional growth via osteoblasts and osteoclasts ---growth in diameter/thickness ---Osteoblasts secrete matrix (osteoid) at periphery of bone (under periosteum and endosteum), forming concentric lamellae ---as new bone is being laid down, osteoclasts along the medullary cavity reabsorb bone matrix, creating an expanding medullary cavity ---combined effects of bone growth at the periphery and bone reabsorption within the medullary cavity transform an infant bone into a larger version ---Fontanelles (soft spots) are areas of membrane that have not yet ossified in children. Cranial growth stops upon their fusion.

Maxillary sinus of maxillae

Lateral to the nasal cavity, each maxilla contains a large, spacious cavity called the maxillary sinus. paranasal sinus- The sinuses have a mucous lining that helps to humidify and warm inhaled air.

True (lesser) pelvis vs. false (greater) pelvis

The pelvic brim is a continuous oval ridge that extends from the pubic crest, pectineal line, and arcuate line to the rounded inferior edges of the sacral ala and promontory. This pelvic brim helps subdi- vide the entire pelvis into a true pelvis and a false pelvis (figure 8.10). The true pelvis, also known as the lesser pelvis, lies inferior to the pelvic brim. It encloses the pelvic cavity and forms a deep bowl that contains the pelvic organs. The false pelvis, also known as the greater pelvis, lies superior to the pelvic brim. It is enclosed by the ala of the iliac bones. It forms the inferior region of the abdominal cavity and houses the inferior abdominal organs.

stapes bone

The stapes (stā′pēz) resembles a stirrup on a saddle. It has a cylindrical, disclike footplate that fits into the oval window, an opening that marks the lateral wall of the inner ear. The auditory ossicles are responsible for amplifying sound waves and transmitting them into the inner ear via the oval window. When sound waves strike the tympanic membrane, the three middle ear ossicles vibrate along with the tympanic membrane, causing the footplate of the stapes to move in and out of the oval window. The movement of this ossicle initiates pressure waves in the fluid within the closed compartment of the inner ear. Because the tympanic mem- brane is 20 times greater in diameter than the stapes footplate in the oval window, sounds transmitted across the middle ear are amplified more than 20-fold, and we are able to detect very faint sounds.

Fibularis (peroneus) brevis

[perone = fibula, brevis = brief or short] Origin: fibula insertion: 5th metatarsal Action: evert foot evertors make up the lateral compartment-> they use lateral malleolus as a pulley look where tendons go- evertors go to the outside/bottom of the foot longus is longer and goes beneath foot to 5th metatarsal; brevis is shorter and only goes to 1st metatarsal Second letter rule for inversion/ eversion: Eversion muscles: pEroneus longus pEroneus brevis pEroneus tertius

Fibularis (peroneus) longus

[perone = fibula, longus = long] Origin: fibula Insertion: 1st metatarsal Action: evert foot evertors make up the lateral compartment-> they use lateral malleolus as a pulley look where tendons go- evertors go to the outside/bottom of the foot longus is longer and goes beneath foot to 5th metatarsal; brevis is shorter and only goes to 1st metatarsal Second letter rule for inversion/ eversion: Eversion muscles: pEroneus longus pEroneus brevis pEroneus tertius

Sartorius

[sartor = a tailor; The sartorius is also known as the tailor's muscle. This is because it helps to flex and rotate your hip and flex your knee; if you were to sit with one leg crossed over the other, then the sartorius muscle would be working. This position was often adopted by tailors when sewing seams by hand in order to hold a piece of cloth between an ankle and the opposite femur.] Origin: anterior superior iliac spine Insertion: medial tibia • Note: this spans two joints Action: flexes and laterally rotates thigh, flexes leg The area of tendon insertion on the proximal, anteromedial tibia is known as the Pes anserinus [pes = foot, anser = goose; the "goose foot"]: a common tendon of 3 muscles that looks like the three muscles that looks like the three webbed toes of a goose. A mnemonic to recall the muscles that insert here is, "Say Grace before Tea" in order from anterior to posterior. Sartorius Gracilis semiTendinosus

semimembranosis

The two Semi's go together: The MEmbranosus is MEdial, and since the two semis go together, Semitendinosus is also medial. Therefore, Biceps Femoris has to be lateral. Of the semi's, to remember which one is superficial: the Tendinosus is on Top.

Semitendinosus

[semitendinosus: the second (distal) half [semi = half] like a long tendon] hamstring muscle Origin: Ischial tuberosity Insertion: proximal medial tibia (Pes anserinus) Action: extend thigh, flex leg The area of tendon insertion on the proximal, anteromedial tibia is known as the Pes anserinus [pes = foot, anser = goose; the "goose foot"]: a common tendon of 3 muscles that looks like the three muscles that looks like the three webbed toes of a goose. A mnemonic to recall the muscles that insert here is, "Say Grace before Tea" in order from anterior to posterior. Sartorius Gracilis semiTendinosus "on the back of the thigh, the hamstrings flex the knee. it consists of three muscles as you can see. biceps femoris has two heads that split, and the semitendinosus is medial to it. the semimembranosis is deeper still, and that makes it so much harder to feel." The two Semi's go together: The MEmbranosus is MEdial, and since the two semis go together, Semitendinosus is also medial. Therefore, Biceps Femoris has to be lateral. Of the semi's, to remember which one is superficial: the Tendinosus is on Top.

[serratus = serrated; has appearance of serrated edge across its attachment to the ribs] Origin: ribs 1-8 Insertion: medial border of scapula Action: upward rotation of arms (flexion past 90 degrees); scapular stabilizer The contraction of the entire serratus anterior leads to a anterolateral movement of the scapula along the ribs. Due to the pull of the inferior part at the lower scapula, the shoulder joint is shifted superiorly. This shifting now enables to lift the arm above 90° (elevation). "under the pecs is the serratus anterior. it rotates arms up away from your posterior."

Soleus

[sole = flat] superficial flexor (plantarflexor) of the foot origin: tibia Insertion: calcaneus Action: flex (plantarflex) foot "these final muscles make up your calf. there are two main ones, so let's break em in half. the gastrocnemius causes plantar flexion, so you can stand on your toes and walk in any direction. the soleus muscle is underneath that. it causes plantar flexion and it's really flat." look where tendons go- flexors go to back or bottom of foot superficial flexors make up posterior compartment -> uses calcaneal tendon

styloid process of the temporal bone

Trapezius

[trapezius = trapezoid-shaped] Origin: external occipital protuberance, and spinous process of vertebrae to T12 Insertion: scapular spine, acromion, and distal clavicle Action: elevates, depresses, adducts scapula "the trapezius muscle is on the top of your back. it moves the scapula, and it looks kinda wack."

trochlear notch of ulna

[trok′lē-ă; trochileia = a pulley; acts like rope of the pulley with the trochlea of the humerus] At the proximal end of the ulna, a C-shaped trochlear notch interlocks with the trochlea of the humerus. CRAzy TULips Capitalum = RAdius Trochlear = ULnar the Ulna has the U shape

Xiphoid process of sternum

[xiphos = spear; prehistoric man used the sternum of an animals as a weapon, the xiphoid process served as a spear] The xiphoid process represents the very tip of the "sword blade." This small, inferiorly pointed projection is cartilaginous and often doesn't ossify until after age 40. The connection of the xiphoid process to the body of the sternum may be broken by an impact or strong pressure. The resulting internal projection of bone can severely damage the heart or liver. rectus abdominus insertion site respiratory diaphragm origin site

hair

epidermal derivative (aka epidermal appendages) of the integument dead, keratinized epithelial cells originates from the dermal papilla ---consists of 3 zones: bulb, root (hair inside the skin) and shaft (once hair has erupted outside of skin) ---hair bulb consists of epithelial cells and is a swelling at the base, contains living cells ---epithelia at the base of the bulb surrounds a small hair papilla, CT containing tiny blood vessels and nerves ---epithelial cells near center of hair matrix divide, producing new cells that are pushed toward the surface ---enclosed by hair follicle (folliculus = a small sac) consisting of CT layer and epithelial layer ---arrector pili [rectus = to raise up, pilus = hair]: bundle of smooth muscle that causes the hair to "stand on end" stimulated by an emotional state (produce goosebumps) & secretion of the sebaceous glands in an association known as the pilosebaceous unit functions: protection from sunburn and injury; entrapment of foreign particles; heat retention of the scalp; sensory reception; visual identification; chemical signal dispersal

nails

epidermal derivative (aka epidermal appendages) of the integument dead, keratinized epithelial cells (scalelike modifications of stratum corneum layer) ---the nail plate consists of the nail body, the free edge (the part that you cut with clippers), and the nail root ---the nail body covers a layer of epidermis called the nail bed which contributes cells that make up the nail proper ---at the base of the nail is the lunule [luna = moon], the whitish semilunar area at proximal end that is lighter in appearance due to thickened stratum basale, the eponychium [epi = upon, onyx = nail] (cuticle), and the nail root ---at the nail root, the nail bed thickens to form the germinal matrix, the actively growing part of the nail ---along the borders (nail groove), folds of skin called nail folds overlap the nail ---the hyponychium [hypo = below, onyx = nail]: region of thickened stratum corneum over which the free edge projects functions: protect exposed distal tips of fingers and toes against mechanical stress as well as help grasp objects

False ribs

ribs 8-12, called false ribs because their costal cartilages do not attach directly to the sternum. The costal cartilages of ribs 8-10 fuse to the costal cartilage of rib 7 and thus indirectly articulate with the sternum. external oblique origin site (external surfaces of ribs 5-12) transversus abdominis origin site (Internal surfaces of costal cartilages of ribs 7-12) respiratory diaphragm origin site (Internal surfaces of lower costal cartilages and ribs 7-12) intercostal muscles origin and insertion sites serratus posterior inferior insertion site serratus anterior origin site (ribs 1-8)
