Anatomy Ex. 10 & 11

10. Each foot has a total of_______________ bones.

26

2. The functional classification of joints is based on: a. a joint cavity b. amount of connective tissue c. amount of movement allowed by the joint

c. amount of movement allowed by the joint

10. CircleTrue or False.The knee joint is the most freely movable joint in the body

false (shoulder)

3. Structural classification of joints includes fibrous, cartilaginous, and ______________________ , which have a fluid-filled cavity between articulating bones.

synovial

1. Name one of the two functions of an articulation, or joint.

-holds bones together -allows flexibility for movement

8. The______________ , or "knee cap," is a sesamoid bone that is found within the quadriceps tendon.

patella

2. Circle the correct underlined term.The pectoral / pelvic girdle attaches the upper limb to the axial skeleton.

pectoral

6. Circle the correct underlined term. Every muscle of the body is attached to a bone or other connective tissue structure at two points.The origin / insertion is the more movable attachment.

insertion

7. The strongest, heaviest bone of the body is in the thigh. It is the a. femur b. fibula c. tibia

femur

4. Circle the correct underlined term. Sutures, which have their irregular edges of bone joined by short fibers of connective tissue, are an example of fibrous / cartilaginous joints.

fibroue

4. The arm consists of one long bone, the: a. femur c.tibia b. humerus d.ulna

humerus

5. The hand consists of three groups of bones.The carpals make up the wrist.The_______________ make up the palm, and the phalanges make up the fingers.

metacarpals

9. Circle the correct underlined term.This type of movement is common in ball-and-socket joints and can be described as the movement of a bone around its longitudinal axis. It is rotation / flexion.

rotation

5. CircleTrue or False. All synovial joints are diarthroses, or freely movable joints.

true

9. CircleTrue or False.The fingers of the hand and the toes of the foot— with the exception of the great toe and the thumb—each have three phalanges.

true

3. The_______________, on the posterior thorax, are roughly triangular in shape.They have no direct attachment to the axial skeleton but are held in place by trunk muscles.

scapula

7. The hip joint is an example of a ___________synovial joint. a. ball-and-socket c. pivot b. hinge d. plane

ball and joint

6. You are studying a pelvis that is wide and shallow.The acetabula are small and far apart.The pubic arch is rounded and greater than 90°. It appears to be tilted forward, with a wide, short sacrum. Is this a male or a female pelvis?______________

female

8. Movement of a limb awayfrom the midline or median plane of the body in the frontal plane is known as: a. abduction c. extension b. eversion d. rotation

abduction

the ___ skeleton is made up of 126 bones of the limbs and girdles

appendicular
