superficial muscle originating on the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and inserting on the metacarpals. Performs extension and adduction at the wrist and is innervated by the radial nerve
pronator teres
superficial muscle originating on the medial epicondyle adn inserting on the radius. Performs pronation and innervated by median nerve
flexor carpi radialis
superficial muscle originating on the medial epicondyle and inserting on the metacarpals. Performs flexion and abduction and is innervated by the medial nerve
5 functions of skeletal system
support structure and movement protects internal organs produce blood cells store triglycerides store and release minerals
Muscular abdominal wall
supports abdominal viscera and vertebral column
Red Bone Marrow
supports blood cell formation and filters out old blood cells. Found in extensive areas of spongy bone. High levels of this in childhood because it is needed to establish the immune system and populate blood: Infant-1 year. By early 20s only the axial skeleton and head of femur have this
Yellow Bone Marrow
supports vasculature within medullary cavity and is made up of adipose tissue
Proximal humerus fracture
surgical neck of the humerus is the narrowed portion of the humerus just inferior to the greater and lesser tubercles. A fracture here would injure the axillary nerve and thus the deltoid which would limit ones ability to flex, medially rotate, abduct, lateral rotate, and extend
Humeroulnar joint
synovial hinge joint where the trochlea and trochlear notch of ulna meet
Humeroradial joint
synovial hinge/pivot joint where the capitulum and the head of the radius meet
Knee joint
synovial modified hinge joint where the medial condyle of the femur articulates with the medial condyle of the tibia and the lateral condyle of the femur articulates with the lateral condyle
Proximal radioulnar joint
synovial pivot joint where the radial notch of ulna meets the head of the radius
Mandibular fossa
the depression in the temporal bone into which the condyle of the mandible fits
Muscle growth
the number of skeletal muscle fibers is determined shortly after birth and with forceful, repetitive muscular activity, muscle fibers hypertrophy - increases number of fibers and mitochondria
Iliac crest
