  • Flexion: Decrease angle between 2 body parts
  • Extension: increasing angle between 2 body parts
  • Abduction: movement away from the midline
  • Adduction: movement toward the midline
  • Dorsiflexion: movement of the foot toward the shin
  • Plantar Flexion: movement of the foot away from the shin
  • Fibrous Joints:
    • Sutures (non-moveable): seams between bones of the skull
    • Syndesmosis (partially moveable): bones attached via fibrous tissue
    • Ex: interosseus membranes in forearm and leg
  • Cartilaginous Joints:
    • Epiphyseal Plate: location of long bone growth
    • Costal Cartilage: between ribs and sternum
    • Symphysis: fibrocartilage that unites 2 bones
    • Ex: pubis symphysis in pelvis
  • Synovial Joints: allow considerable movement, contain synovial fluid
  • Skeletal muscle: voluntary contraction, attached to bone, multinucleated, involved in movement
  • Cardiac muscle: involuntary contraction, found only in the heart, one nucleus
  • Smooth muscle: involuntary contraction, walls of organs, blood vessels, etc., one nucleus
  • Tendons: connect muscle to bone, usually named for the muscle to which they attach
  • Ligaments: connect bone to bone, usually named for the structures they run between
  • Tendons connect muscle to bone
  • Ligaments connect bone to bone
  • 3 Main Types of Movements:
    1. Angular
    2. Circular
    3. Special
  • Supination
    Face/palm up
  • Pronation
    Face/palm down
  • Rotation
    turning along long axis
  • Circumduction
    Combination of flexion, extension, abduction, adduction
  • Inversion
    turning plantar surface of foot medially
  • Eversion
    Turning plantar surface of foot laterally
  • Protraction
    moving a structure anteriorly
  • Retraction
    Moving a structure posteriorly
  • Elevation
    Moving a structure superiorly
  • Depression
    Moving a structure inferiorly
  • Excursion
    Moving the mandible away from the midline (lateral excursion) or back towards the midline (medial excursion)
  • Bone Articulations
    1. Synarthrotic: non-moveable joint (ex: skull)
    2. Amphiarthrotic: slightly moveable (ex: between vertebrae)
    3. Diarthrotic (synovial): freely moveable joint (ex: shoulder joint)
  • Diarthrotic (Synovial)
    • Characteristics:
    • Joint capsule
    • Fibrous capsule
    • Synovial membrane
    • Joint cavity with synovial fluid
    • Articular cartilage
  • Draw a synovial joint
    Label
    A) Bone
    B) Bone
    C) Synovial membrane
    D) Joint cavity containing synovial fluid
    E) Articular cartilage
    F) capsule of the joint
  • Classifications of Synovial Joints
    1. Hinge: flexion and extension only (ex: elbow)
    2. Pivot: permits rotation (ex: ulna and radius)
    3. Ball and Socket: many motions possible (ex: shoulder, hip)
    4. Condyloid/Ellipsoid: almost all movements, no rotation (ex: wrist)
    5. Saddle: all movements, no rotation (ex: carpometacarpal - thumb)
    6. Plane: permits gliding (ex: carpals, tarsals)
