THE UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST INDIES FACULTY OF MEDICAL SCIENCES SCHOOL OF MEDICAL RADIATION TECHNOLOGY ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY YEAR 1 RDSC 1001, final TUTORIAL Sheet Semester 1 1. Compare the elbow joint and the shoulder joint under the following headings: a) joint classification and articulating surfaces b) structures which strengthen and stabilize the joint c) movements possible at the joints d) 1 major nerve which may be damaged as a result of a complicated supracondylar fracture 2. Distinguish between a synarthrosis and a diarthrosis under the following headings: a) movement possible b) presence/absence of cartilage c) lubricating fluid d) examples of each type 3. Describe the ulna and radius under the following headings: a) Position of each bone when the limb is in the anatomical position b) features of proximal end c) shaft d) features of the distal end. e) position of the head(s) 4.
