100

The ___________ of the radius articulates with the _________ of the humerus.

head 

capitulum 

100

if I break my fibula can I still walk, why?

yes the fibula is none weight baring it is good for support and balance 

100

how to tell the difference between cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae 

cervial has transverse foramen, thoracic has larger transverse processes with facets, and lumbar have large bodies 

100

do the movement of a hinge joint 

flexion and extension

100

what connects bones 

ligaments 

200

what is the difference between a foramen and a fissure, and what is similar about them 

foramen are circular and more rounded , fissures are more narrow and elongated- slit like 

Both allow for blood vessel and nerve passages 

200

what is the purpose of the acl, mcl, pcl, and lcl 

they give the knee stability

mcl- medial movement 

lcl- lateral movement 

acl- preventing too much movement anteriorly 

pcl- preventing too much movement posteriorly 

200

Where do ribs connect to my vertebrae ?

facets on the transverse process  to (articular factes) on ribs 

superior and inferior demifacets on the vertebral body to the superior inferior facets on the ribs 


200

do the movement of a pivot joint 

head side to side 

200

what is the ankle bone called. Double points if can name the joints around it 

talus 

talocrural joint 

subtalar joints 


300

what two foramen are around my eyes, and what two fissures are found in my orbit 

supra and infra orbital foramens, superior and inferior orbital fissures 

300

what are two different joints in my knee 

tibiofemoral- hinge

patellofemoral - planar 

300

list the pneumatized bones in the skull 

frontal, sphenoid, ethmoid, and temporal bones

300

do the movement of a saddle joint 

flexion, extension, ab/ad, opposition 

300

What do the arches of the feet do 

Two arches support the

weight of the body

• The arches provide

spring and leverage to

the foot when walking

• The arches flex when

body weight is applied

400

what bony mark is on my tibia that I can feel anteriorly and where my patellar tendon attaches 

tibial tuberosity 

400

list the order of the bones of the upper and lower appendicular skeleton 

clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius/ulna, carpals, metacarpals, phalanges( proximal, middle, distal) 

pelvic girdle, femur, patella, tibia/fibula, tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges 


400

Label the bones that make up my orbit 

  • Frontal(superior), sphenoid(posterior), zygomatic(lateral), ethmoid(medial), maxilla(inferior), palatine, lacrimal(medial)
400

ball and socket joint 

flexion, extension, circumduction, rotation, ab/ad

400

what is different about the hip and shoulder 

the hip gives up mobility for stability, the shoulder gives up stability for mobility 

500

Label the bony markings on the pelvis, along with each part of the pelvis 

ilium- greater sciatic notch, superior/ inferior iliac spine, auricular surface 

ischium- ischial spine, ischial tuberosity, obturator foramen, body of ischium 

pubis- pubic symphysis, pubic tubercle, superior ramus, inferior ramus 

500

label the major parts of the femur 

Head

2. Fovea capitis

3. Neck

4. Greater trochanter

5. Intertrochanteric crest

6. Lesser trochanter

 Body (shaft)

2. Linea aspera

3. Medial condyle

4. Medial epicondyle

5. Adductor tubercle

7. Lateral epicondyle

8. Patellar surface

9. Intercondylar fossa

500

Label at least 15 things on the following image. 

parietal bones, sagittal suture, external occipital protuberance, superior/inferior nuchal lines, foramen magnum, maxilla, palatine bone, mastoid process, styloid process, sphenoid bone, ptergoid process, occipital condyles, lamboid suture, mandible, vomer, inferior nasal conchi, incisive foramen 

500

name all the different types of joint and give an example of each

pivot, planar, ball and socket, hinge, saddle, Condyloid

Planar- intertarsal joints, intercarpal joint 

pivot- radial ulnar joint 

ball and socket- gleniohuneral joint, acetabulofemoral joint 

hinge- tibiofemoral joint, Humeroulnar joint

sadle- carpometacarpol joint, trapeziometacarpal

condyloid- radiocarpal joint

During a soccer game, a player is going in for a kick. He kicks with his left foot, and his right foot planted on the ground. As he kicks, another player rams into the lateral side of his right leg and results in a medial twist and anterior projection of the tibia. From the description and the image below, what three structures are most likely to be strained/torn?

ACL or PCL
MCL or LCL

Medial or lateral meniscus


Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) - results from the lateral force

•Medial meniscus – results from a fixation with rotation, specifically internal rotation

•Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) - results from excessive anterior movement
