4 major types of joints | Bony (synotosis), fibrous, Cartiloginous, synovial |
Bony joints | 2 separate bones fuse to become one |
Fibrous joints | connect one bone to another with collagenous fibers |
Cartilogious joints | bones held together by cartilage |
Synovial joints | two bones in capsule that contains synovial fluid |
types of fibrous joints | suture; gomphosis, syndemosis |
example of suture (fibrous joint) | frontal and parietal bones |
example of gomphosis (fibrous joint) | teeth and mandible |
example of syndemosis (fibrous joint) | inerosseous membrane between tibia and fibula or ulna and radius |
2 types cartilaginous joints | synchodrosis and symphysis |
synchrodosis joint | composed of hyaline cartilage |
symphysis joint | composed of fibrocartilage; example pubic synthesis and bodies of vertebrae and vertebral discs |
Serrate sutures | wavy line like jigsaw puzzle |
Examples of serrate sutures | coronal, sagital and lamboidal joints |
lap (squamous) | 2 bones hav e overlapping beveled edges |
example of lap (squamous) suture | where temporal bone meets sphenoid and temporal bones |
Plane (butt) sutures | 2 bones have straight non-overlapping edges |
Example of plane (butt) suture | intermaxillary suture in the roof of the mouth |
6 types of synovial joints | Plane, hinge, pivot, condylar, saddle, ball and socket |
example of plane joint (synovial joint) | allow movement between 2 flat surfaces; intertarsal or intercarpal joints |
example of hinge joint (synovial joint) | allows for angular movement (elbow, knees, phalanges of fingers |
example of pivot joints (synovial joint) | allow for rotational movement between 2 bones; atlas and axis of neck |
example of condylar joints (Synovial joint) | allow significant movement in 2 planes; convex surface paired with concave; junction between radius and scaphoid and metacarpals and phalnages |
example of saddle joints (synovial joint) | 2 concave surfaces articulate with each other; between tranpezium and 1st metacarpal of thumb |
examples of Ball and socket joints (synovial joint) | consist of spherical head in a round concavity; shoulder and hip joints |
flexion | a movment that DECREASES the joint angle |
Extension | movement that STRAIGHTENS a joint and returns it to zero position |
hyperextension | extension of joint BEYOND ZERO POSITION |
Abduction | body part moves AWAY from the midline of body |
Adduction | body parts moves TOWARD the midline of the body |
elevation | RAISES body part VERTICALLY in FRONTAL plane |
depression | LOWERS a body part VERTICALLY in FRONTAL plane |
Protraction | ANTERIOR movement of body part in TRANSVERSE (horizontal) plane |
Retraction | POSTERIOR movement of body part in transverse plane |
Dosiflexion | elevates toes |
Plantarflexion | movement of foot so toes point downward (pressing a gas peddle) |
Functions of muscles | Movement, stability, control of body openings and passages, heat production, glycemic control |
3 types of muscle tissue | skeletal, cardiac, smooth |
Skeletal | multi-nucleated, voluntary, striated, example biceps, triceps |
Cardiac | bronze, single nucleated, involuntary; example heart |
smooth | fusiform shaped, single nucleated, involuntary; example lining of stomach |
excitability | responds to chemical signals, stretch and chemical signals across the plasma membrane |
conductivity | local electrical charnge triggers a wave of excitation that travels along the muscle fiber |
contractility | shortens when stimulated |
extensibility | capable of being stretched |
elasticity | recoil; returns to its rest length after being stretched |
muscle fibers are made of | fascicles |
myofilaments | proteins that help us contract our muscles; most important in the muscle cell |
3 types of myofilamenst | thin, thick and elastic |
thick myofilament | made up of protein called myosin |
thin myofilament | made up of a protein called actin and tropomyosin |
contractile proteins, myosin and actin | do the work of contraction |
tropomyosin and troponin are | regulatory proteins; act like a switch can/cannot contract |
contractions are activated by | release of calcium into the sarcoplasm and its binding to troponin |
elastic filaments | made of springy protein called titin |
Nervous system is divided into the | central nervous system (CNS) and Peripheral nervous system (PNS) |
CNS consists of | brain and spinal cord |
PNS consists of the | nerves and ganglion |
sympathetic | fight or flight; increase heart rate, increase respiratory; decreases digestive and urinary tract blood flow |
parasympathetic | rest and recover; opposite of sympathetic |
sensory (afferent) neuron found in PNS | signal from sensory receptor to CNS |
Motor (efferent) neuron | cns sends signals to effectors such as muscles and glands |
interneurons (associations neurons) | confined to the CNS; processes information, makes a decision and sends signal back |
dendrites | branch from cell body; receive signals from other cellsand direct them to the cell body |
soma | another name for the cell body |
Scwan cell from PNS and a oligodendrocyte from the CNS | build the myelin sheath |
diameter of axon and myelin sheath | increases signal speed transmission |
signal is received by dendrites then | move to trigger zone where action potential is created then signal moves down neuron |
myelin sheath | insulates the axon |
2 major classification of cells in nervous system | neurons and neuroglia |
2 types of neroglia cells found in the PNS | satellite cells and schwann cells |
4 types of the neuroglia cells found in the CNS | astrocyte, Oligodendrocytes, Microglia and Ependymal cells |
astrocyts known as the blood brain barrier | moniotrs what goes into the brain |
microglia | ability to find foreign pathogens and phagocytize them |
ependymal cell | line ventricles, filter blood plasma to help make the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) |
satellite cells | help cover the neursoma of the PNS |
