100
While both the ulna & radius articulate with the humerus during the 100-130 degrees of flexion at phase 1 & 2 & 0 degrees of extension in phase 3, which forearm bone does not articulate at the wrist during wrist movement.
What is the ulna?
100
Knee flexion occurs during both phase 1 & 2 of a free throw, what group of muscles would be agonist & what group would be antagonist during knee flexion?
What is quads (antagonist) & the hamstrings (agonist) (70 to 40 degrees)
100
The hip joint is an articulation between the convex femoral head and the concave acetabulum; during the hip flexion that occurs during phase one and two, what direction would the head of the femur be going in.
What is opposite or posterior
100
Two movements that can occur at both the shoulder and the hip, where you move body parts away from the body and then bring them back, only occur at the fingers during a free throw, what are these motion?
What is adduction & abduction?
200
The shoulder girdle often has movements that must accompany shoulder joint movements in order for the shoulder joint movements to occur, what is one shoulder girdle motion that accompanies the 90 degrees of shoulder flexion seen in phase 2?
What is upward rotation
200
The flexor carpi ulnaris & radialis do wrist deviation; what other motion, seen in phase 3 of a free throw, can they do?
What is wrist flexion (85 degrees) (extensor carpi radialis longus/brevis, & extensor carpi ulnaris are antagonist)
200
During Phase 3 the knee, a hinge joint, goes into weight bearing closed chain extension, what bone of the knee joint is gliding posteriorly, as it rolls into extension, and spins medially?
What is the femur?
200
During phase 1 the trunk is in flexion; name one of the trunk flexors
What is rectus abdominis, external oblique, internal oblique (erector spinae, transverospinalis, interspinales)
200
What movement is occurring at the ankle in phase 3?
What is plantar flexion
300
The upward rotation accompanying the shoulder flexion seen in all 3 phases is accomplished by the upper and lower trapezius & serratus anterior pulling in different directions to accomplish the same motion, this is known as.
What is a force couple (pec minor, rhomboid, levator scapulae)
300
While holding the ball in phase 1 & 2 the fingers are spread far apart to hold the ball. This motion which uses the MCPs and CMC of the fingers and thumb to spread the fingers apart, is what type of motion?
What is abduction? (finger: dorsal interossei/abductor digiti mini) (thumb: Abductor pollicis longus/brevis)
300
Ankle plantar flexion occurs concentrically during phase 3 of a free throw, the gastrocnemius is a muscle that crosses both the ankle and the knee; what knee motion would you have to do along with plantar flexion to make the gastroc actively insufficient?
What is knee flexion? Present at phase 1 & 2
300
During phase one the trunk is slightly flexed, so muscles like the rectus abdominis are working, but as you move into phase 2 the trunk is extended. What is the name of the group of muscles working to pull the trunk into extension?
What is erector spinae muscles
300
Most of the symmetrical movement seen in a free throw is achieved through flexion and then extension, so what plane & axis would most of this motion be occurring in?
What is sagittal plane/ frontal axis (supination/abduction)
400
During the shoulder flexion in all 3 phases the anterior deltoids & the clavicular portion of pec major are agonist performing concentric shoulder flexion, what is one antagonist muscle to this shoulder flexion?
What is Latitimus Dorsi, Posterior Deltoid, Teres Major, Pectoralis Major (Sternal portion)
400
During phase 3 the hinge shaped elbow extends to help shoot the ball toward the basket, while Biceps brachii, Brachialis, & Brachioradialis are all antagonist to this movement, what is the primary agonist?
What is triceps (aconeous assists)
400
The concentric knee extension seen in phase 3 can be achieved by a quad muscle that crosses both the hip and the knee. What is this muscle?
What is rectus femoris ( knee extension is also achieved by the other quad muscles as well)
400
The semimembranous, semitendinosus, & biceps femoris, all help to extend the hip during phase 3. What is the name of this group of muscles.
What is hamstrings (phase 1 & 2-knee flexion)
400
What motion is the wrist doing at phase 3 to push the ball towards the hoop
What is flexion
500
In phase 1 of the motion the neck is in an extended position, but as you move into phase 2 the head must tilt back in order for the person to view the basket, what is this sagittal plane motion called?
What is neck hyperextension
500
Elbow flexion occurs in phase 1 & 2 of a free throw. In order to make the biceps, which can do elbow flexion & forearm supination, passively insufficient what motions would you do.
What is elbow extension, forearm pronation (also assists in shoulder flexion-hyperextension)
500
The ankle plantar flexion seen in phase 3 is achieved by both the gastrocnemius & the soleus, crossing the ankle joint; what is the shape of the uniaxial ankle joint?
What is hinge (talocrural joint) (tibialis anterior)
