Question Answer
Terminologia Anatomica Purpose? The Language of Anatomy - purpose is accuracy and concise
What is the Anatomical Position? head, gaze, toes - foward arms adjacent to body palms facing foward lower limbs close together feet parallel
Median plane vertical plane down midline of body dividing the body into right and left halves
Sagittal Plane Vertical plane parallel to the median plane divides the body into right and left parts
Frontal (Coronal) Plane Vertical plane perpendicular to the median plane divides the body into back and front
Horizontal (Transverse) Plane cuts the body in segments creating a top and bottom part
Anterior vs Posterior front vs back
Ventral vs Dorsal related to CNS front/face vs back
Superior vs Inferior top most vs bottom most closer to head vs closer to feet
Medial vs Lateral closest to midline vs furthest from midline
Proximal vs Distal nearest to axial vs furthest to axial skeleton (related to points of attachments)
Rostral (cephalad) vs Caudal toward the head vs toward the tail (CNS associated)
Ipsilateral vs Contralateral on the same side vs opposite side of body (in reference to the midline)
Superficial vs Deep Toward the surface vs Away from the surface
Flexion vs Extension decrease the angle vs increase the angle
Dorsiflexion vs Plantarflexion Toes up vs point toes down
Abduction vs Adduction outward vs inward to body
Lateral rotation vs Medial rotation external (away from) vs internal (toward)
Circumduction Related to ball and socket joints circular motion
Supination vs Pronation forward vs backward turn Ex. Forearm
Inversion vs Eversion Turn the ankle in vs turn the ankle out
Elevation vs Depression Upwards vs downwards Ex. shoulder
Protrusion vs Retrusion forward vs backward Ex. TMJ
Opposition vs Reposition toward the fingers vs back to anatomical position Ex. the thumb with a saddle joint
Functions of Integumentary System protection, containment, temperature, regulation, sensation, and endocrine
Epidermis superficial and cellular skin component
Dermis deep, connective tissue skin component contains vascular, nerves, and appendages
Epithelial Cell Components Wide arrangements and variety Avascular (located in basement membrane above the blood) Polarity directionality
Fascia dense, organized connective tissue
Functions of Fascia organizes regions into compartments wraps, packs, and insulates deep structures
Bursa closed sac or envelope of serous membrane
Retinacula thickened deep fascia to hold tendons in place where they cross the joint during flexion and extension
types of connective tissue tendons, ligaments, fascia, cartilage, bone, adipose
intermuscular septa extend centrally from fascial sleeve to attach to bone
2 classifications of the skeletal system Axial skeleton and Appendicular skeleton
Axial Skeleton Bones of the: head, neck, and trunk
Appendicular Skeleton Bones of the limbs including: pelvic girdle and pectoral girdle
What is bone? Highly specialized hardened connective tissue
What is bone mineralized by? Calcium and phosphate
What is osteocytes? the living "bone cells"
Types of osteocytes osteoblasts and osteoclasts
Periosteum fibrous connective tissue covering skeletal element like a sleeve around bones, except at the articular cartilage
Perichondrium fibrous connective tissue covering cartilage
What are the 2 types of bone? Compact bone and spongy bone
Classifications of Bone Long Bones Short Bones Flat Bones Irregular Bones Sesamoid Bones
Compact Bone and its function Superficial thin hard layer on bone. Provides strength for weight bearing
Spongy Bone central mass surrounded by the compact bone
Medullary Cavity marrow cavity either red or yellow bone marrow
Function of long bones Tubular bone for rigidity and attachment of muscles and ligaments
Long bone Shape contains the: Diaphysis - shaft (greatest amount of compact bone) Epiphysis - end Metaphysis - middle
