Oh, here she comes. Watch out boy she'll chew you up

100

Identify the arthrokinematics in the inferior compartment of the TMJ with early opening

Posterior roll and anterior slide of the mandible

200

Identify three muscles that serve as mandibular elevators

Masseter, temporalis, medial pterygoid

300

Which mandibular osteokinematic has the highest potential force production?

Elevation

400

What happens in the superior compartment of the TMJ in the second half of opening?

Anterior translation

500

Identify the muscles responsible for mandibular depression

Lateral pterygoid and suprahyoid muscles

Pressurepushing down on mepressing down on you

100

Which portion of the intervertebral disc is responsible for resisting compressive forces?

Nucleus pulposis

200

Which motion will create more compression in the lumbar facet joints: lumbar flexion or lumbar extension?

Lumbar extension

300

Which specific portion of the intervertebral disc will experience the most passive tension with lumbar flexion?

Posterior portion of the disc (particularly the annulus)

400

Based on the chart presented in class, what position results in the largest compressive force in the intervertebral disc?

Standing in slight flexion while carrying a load in front of you

500

Identify 4 strategies to reduce trunk extensor force needed for lifting

1. Reduce the speed of lifting

2. Reduce the external load

3. Decrease the external moment arm

4. Increase the internal moment arm

I wanna wake up where you are, I won't say anything at all. So why don't you slide

Which region of the spine is most capable of rotation?

Cervical spine (specifically C1/C2)

500

What deviation would a physical therapist expect to see when performing a lumbar active motion screen on a patient with decreased right upglide?

Decreased sidebending to the left and deviation to the right with lumbar flexion

I want to see you work out for me (work out for me)

What is the name of the law that describes how pressure changes in the lungs drives inspiration and expiration?

Boyle's Law

500

Which osteokinematics would occur with a unilateral contraction of the left external abdominal oblique?
