True

Syndesmosis

Two bones joined together by a strong ligament or an interosseus membrane that allows minimal movement between the bones

Synchondrosis

Type of joint separated by hyaline cartilage that allows very slight movement between the bones

Flexion/ extension is an example of movement in a frontal plane about an a anteroposterior axis.

False

T or F: antagonist muscle are known as primary or prime movers or muscles most involved in a joint action.

False

T or F: contractility is the ability of a muscle to contract and develop tension or internal force in the same direction as a resistive force when stimulated.

False

T or F: during the process of bone remodeling osteoblasts resorb existing bone and osteoclasts form new bone.

False

T or F: fusiform muscle fiber arrangement results in a circular pattern.

False

T or F: in normal walking, there is an ipsilateral arm swing.

False

T or F: isokinetic muscle contractions involve a dynamic movement wherein the speed of movement is variable.

False

T or F: it is not possible for a muscle to cause more than one action in an associated joint.

False

T or F: it is not possible for a muscle too cause more than one action in an associated joint. Skeletal muscles are responsible for movement of the body as a whole and movement within each of the joints of the body.

False

False

T or F: there are approximately 452 muscles in the human body.

False

An instrument used to measure the change is joint angles is a ____.

Goniometer

Epiphyseal plate

Growth plate - thin cartilage plate separates diaphysis and epiphysis

Cortex

Hard, dense compact bone forming walks of diaphysis

Antagonist

The antagonist in a movement refers to the muscles that oppose the agonist

Kinematics

The description of motion, including consideration of time, displacement, velocity, acceleration, and space factors of a system's motion

Epiphysis

Ends of long bones formed from cancellous (spongy or trabecular) bone

During an underhand softball pitch that does not involve a windmill windup, the hand holdingthe ball is moved to a posterior position with respect the torso prior to moving forward swing of the arm that releases the ball. In what order do the movements occur at the shoulder joint to make this motion possible?

Extension, flexion

Diaphysis

Long cylindrical shaft

The subconscious mechanism by which the body is able to regulate posture and movement is ____.

Proprioception

Isometic

- active tension is developed within muscle but joint angles remain constant - static contractions - significant amount of tension may be developed in muscle to maintain joint angle in relatively static or stable position - may be used to prevent a body segment from being moved by external forces - preventing motion

Long bones

- composed of a long cylindrical shaft with relatively wide protruding ends - shaft contains the medullary canal - phalanges, metatarsals, metacarpals, tibia, fibula, femur, radius, ulna, humerus

Frontal Plane

- divides the body into anterior and posterior halves - sagittal axis of rotation - movements include abduction and adducrion

Sagittal Plane

- divides the body into right and left halves - frontal axis of rotation - movements include flexion and extension

Transverse Plane

- divides the body into superior and inferior halves - vertical axis of rotation Movements include internal and external rotation

Flat bones

- have curved surface and vary from thick where tendons attach to very thin - ilium, ribs, sternum, clavicle, scapula

Isotonic

- involves muscle developing active tension to either cause or control joint movement - dynamic contractions - can either be concentric or eccentric on basis of whether shortening or lengthening occurs

Diarthrodial

- known as synovial joints - freely movable - composed of sleeve like joint capsule - secrets synovial fluid to lubricate joint cavity

Short bones

- small, cubical shaped, solid bones that usually have proportionally large articular surface in order to articulate with more than one bone - carpals and tarsals
