Study Notes
Joint Types and Functionality
- Synchondrosis joints allow bone growth while providing stability and limited mobility.
- Plantar flexion occurs when the foot and toes are bent toward the ground.
- The proximal radioulnar joint rotates the radius medially, allowing it to uncross from the ulna.
- Biaxial joints enable motion in two planes around two axes.
- Ball-and-socket joints feature a ball-like convex surface fitting into a concave socket, allowing for extensive movement.
- Intercarpal joints, found between the two rows of carpal bones in the wrist, are classified as plane joints.
Joint Movement and Stability
- A triaxial joint possesses three degrees of freedom, allowing for movement in all directions.
- The hip joint is responsible for flexion and extension in the sagittal plane, as well as abduction and adduction in the frontal plane.
- The first sternocostal joint is classified as a synovial joint.
- The atlantoaxial joint allows shaking of the head to indicate "no."
Joint Structure and Connectivity
- Syndesmosis joints are directly connected by interosseous connective tissue.
- Diarthrodial joints, or synovial joints, permit the most movement.
- Sutural joints are unique to the skull and provide minimal movement.
- A serrate joint occurs where two bones have overlapping beveled edges.
- The gomphosis joint resembles a peg in a hole, such as a tooth in the mandible.
- Symphyses joints are joined by fibrocartilage in disks or plates.
Joint Capsule and Vascularization
- The outer layer of the joint capsule is poorly innervated but highly vascularized.
- The inner synovial membrane layer is richly innervated but poorly vascularized.
Human Anatomy and Muscle Physiology
- An adult human body contains 206 bones.
- The contraction phase follows the latent phase during a muscle twitch.
- Not all classified joints include synarthroses, diarthroses, and amphiarthroses.
- Isometric contraction occurs when the muscle length remains constant during contraction.
- Troponin binds to calcium ions, initiating muscle contraction.
Muscle Fiber Types and Energy Sources
- Type I muscle fibers are high in oxygen supply and have a slow contraction speed.
- The length-tension relationship describes how muscle tension changes with muscle length.
- Creatine phosphate is not a source of energy for muscle contraction.
- Gravity or friction does not classify as a force involved in the mechanical lever system of the body.
- Parallel muscle fiber arrangement features fibers aligned parallel to the muscle's long axis.
- A motor unit comprises a motor neuron and all muscle fibers it innervates.
- Factors influencing muscle strength exclude variables such as muscle length and contraction velocity.
