Splenius capitis is innervated by
What are the dorsal rami of cervical spinal nerves?
Name the nerve that runs through the cribiform plate
Define kinematics
What is the branch of mechanics that describes the motion of the body without regard to the forces or torques that produce the motion?
The plane that scoliosis occurs in
What is the frontal plane?
The type of joint an intervertebral disc is
What is cartilaginous- fibrocartilage?
The muscle that is most developed in the lumbar region with fibers that span 3-4 spaces
What is the multifidus?
Name the main structures innervated by CN XI- Spinal Accessory
What are the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius?
The axis of rotation goes through this joint partner
What is convex?
Name the atypical vertebrae
What are the atlas and axis?
The primary movement at the atlantoaxial joint
The action of the longissimus muscle
What is maintain erect posture, extend vertebral column, spine and head lateral flexion and ipsilateral rotation?
Name the structure that runs through the optic canal with CN II-Optic
What is the internal carotid artery or opthalmic artery (branch of internal carotid)?
The perpendicular distance from the line of applied force to the axis of rotation
What is the moment arm?
The anatomical marker for S2
What is the PSIS?
The vertebral ligament that limits extension
Name all muscles that attach on the occipital bone
What are the splenius capitis, obliquus capitus superior, rectus capitis posterior minor, rectus capitis posterior major, trapezius, semispinalis?
Name all cranial nerves that run through the superior orbital fissure (hint: add branches if necessary)
What are CN III-Oculomotor, CN IV-Trochlear, CN V-Trigeminal V1 Ophthalmic Branch, CN VI-Abducens
Describe Newton's laws of motion
The law of inertia- an object at rest stays at rest, an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by a force
2nd- f=ma
3rd- every action has an equal and opposite reaction (force)
The number of articulations a thoracic vertebrae has
Describe the length-tension relationship
What is active tension is greatest at midrange, and as the muscle lengthens the passive tension increases with the greatest overall tension at increased length (actin and myosin blah blah blah crossbridge sarcomere something)
Name the insertion of the semispinalis
What is the occipital bone between superior and inferior nuchal lines?
Name all structures that run through the jugular foramen
What are CN IX-Glossopharyngeal, CN X-Vagus, CN XI-Spinal Accessory, and internal jugular vein?
Name the main factors affecting muscle force
physiological cross-sectional area, pennation angle, length-tension, force-velocity
Name the landmarks found on typical vertebrae
What are large vertebral body, 2 transverse process, 2 superior articular process, 2 inferior articular process, vertebral arch (2 pedicle, 2 lamina), 1 spinous process?
Describe cervical vertebrae distinguishing features
What are smaller vertebral body, large intervertebral discs, uncinate process/uncovertebral joints, bifid spinous processes, transverse foramen?
