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 |
