Which type of bone is involved in gross movement of the body?

1

Skeletal muscles are involuntary muscles.

1

Which type of bone is involved in the fine, delicate movements of the body?

1

Irregular bones provide a large surface area for the attachment of muscles.

1

These are all examples of flat bones, except?

1

The cranium is an example of a flat bone and its role is to protect the brain.

1

The red and white blood cells are produced in the bone marrow of the long bones.

1

The following bones are involved in protecting the delicate organs and tissues of the body, except?

1

Muscles push on the bones to create movement.

1

There are four different types of joints found in the human body.

1

A joint is a connection point between two or more bones.

1

Which characteristic relates to a slightly moveable joint?

1

The cranium is a cartilaginous joint.

1

A ball and socket joint is found at the joint between the humerus and radius.

1

The thumb is an example of which type of joint?

1

Which connective tissue attaches bone to bone?

1

The role of tendons is to acts as a shock absorber and cushion the impact between bones when running and jumping during sporting activity.

1

The Cardiac muscle is a voluntary muscle.

1

The blood vessels are smooth muscles and are known as involuntary muscles.

1

Skeletal muscles are connected to the skeleton and are under our control.

1

Ligaments connect muscle to bone.

1

The pectorals, abdominals, biceps, quadriceps and sartorius are all anterior view muscles.

1

The quadricep is located at the back of the upper leg.

1

The triceps create the flexion of the arm.

1

The diaphragm is a smooth muscle.

1

The hamstrings contract to allow heel flicks to be created during the active stretch phase of a warm up.

1

The working muscle is known as the agonist muscle.

1

Muscles can only pull.

1

The origin of a muscle is where it is attached to the moving bone.

1

When a muscle contracts the insertion always moves towards the origin.

1

Flexion is increasing the angle of a joint.

1

Adductors create abduction, the movement of a limb away from the body.

1

Rotation is when the bone or limb moves freely in a curve.

1

Isometric contraction is when there is no actual movement of either the limb or the joint because the muscles are working to keep the joint stable.

1

Isotonic contraction is when muscles contract to create movement.

1

Articulation is a movable joint between inflexible parts of the body.
