Bones and Biomechanics

• Epithelial tissue features= covers exposed surfaces, lines internal passageways and chambers, forms secretory glands
• Epithelial tissue=

  
• Connective tissue features= fills internal spaces, provides structural support, stores energy
• Connective tissue=

  
• types of connective tissue= proper, fluid, supporting- bone/cartilage
• types of epithelial tissue= epithelia, glands- exocrine/endocrine
• Muscle tissue features= contracts to produce movement
• Muscle tissue types= skeletal, cardiac, and smooth
• Nervous tissue features= conducts electrical impulses, carries information
• Homeostasis= maintaining the internal environment
• two homeostasis mechanisms= feedback and feedforward
• Anatomical position conditions= upright, face forwards, feet together, palms face forwards
• Anterior= closer to the front
• Posterior= closer to the back
• Superior= above
• Inferior= below
• medial= middle
• lateral= sideways
• proximal= above on the same limb
• Distal= below on the same limb
• Deep= further from the surface
• Superficial= closer to the surface
• Coronal= front and back sections
• Saggital= left and right
• Transverse across into top and bottom halves
• coronal movement= side to side
• sagittal movement=back and forwards
• transverse movement = rotating
• flexion= decreasing angle
• extension= increasing angle
• dorsiflexion= toes toward face
• plantar flexion= point toes
• adduction= towards midline
• abduction= away from midline
• inversion= sole of foot faces midline
• eversion= sole of foot faces away from midline
• circumduction= drawing a circle with hand or foot
• rotation= pivot around the long axis of a joint
• pronation= palm faces posterior
• supination= palm face anterior
