| Cartilage | Part of the main connective tissue that the bone slides on |
| Larger More Curved | Femoral Median condyle is ***** and ***** than the lateral side. |
| Base | Rubbing your finger down your leg to the Patella you first intersect what point |
| ACL-orientation point and intersection point | Femur, Anterior Lateral (Orientation) to the Median Tibia Plateau (Insertion) |
| Contralateral | occurring on the opposite side of the body |
| Sagittal Plane | divides the body into Left/Right halves |
| Tendon | muscle that is a tough band of fibrous tissues capable of withstanding tension |
| Knee, | The largest joint in the human body. |
| Valgus | illustration (Knocked-Knee) |
| Various | illustration (Bow-Legged) |
| (3) Major Muscles in the Hamstring Group | Biceps Femoris, Semitendinosus, Semimembranosus |
| (2) Groups of ligaments in the knee | Extracapsular, Intraarticular |
| # Of Knee articulations excluding the fibula | 3, Patella femur, Lateral/ Medal (Tibia Femoral Compartment x2) |
| Coronal Plane | separates the body into Anterior, Posterior |
| Wolfs’ Law | use or lose bone strength, reaction of bone based on stress put on it |
| T/F, Patella connects to anterior Quadricep Muscles, rides in Trochlear groove | True |
| ACL Location | location on an illustration |
| T/F, primary function of the Quad group is to Flex the knee | False |
| Ligament | Tissue that connects bone to bone |
| ACL is | responsible for restraint to anterior tibial translation with respect to the femur |
| 4 Bones in the knee | Femur, Patella, Tibia, Fibula |
| Anatomic Directions | Inferior/Superior, Proximal/ Distal, Anterior/Posterior |
| Lateral Head Condyle Fibular Head | LCL originates at the ***** and inserts on the ***** |
| Cancellous | Soft type of bone that exists in the Epiphysis & Metaphysical regions of the long bone |
| PCL | location originates (none of the above) |
| T/F - MCL point of Attachment, Distal Medial Femoral Condyle & Proximal Fibular | False |
| Hypertrophic Condyle | Disease of Increasing Bone Size |
| MCL | Origin/Insertion points |
| LCL * | * Origin/Insertion points |
| At the Origin of a muscle there? is | No Movement |
| Avascular Necrosis | Death of a bone due to lack of blood flow, death of Femoral Head. |
| Popliteal Artery | Main blood supply to the leg. |
| Supine Position | Laying Flat on your back |
| Ipsilateral | Same side of Body |
| Cortical Bone | Strength, Dense Bone |
| Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) | resists restraint stressed by VARUS ANGULATION |
| Extension | Quadriceps Muscle Group |
| Patella Function | Fulcrum for Quadriceps, extent movement, mechanical advantages |
| Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) | Restraint to VALGUS ANGULATION |
| Synovial Joint, Modified Hinge | Name of Knee Joint |
| Intraacrticular Ligaments * | ACL, PCL *(Ligament Types) |
| Extracapsular Ligaments * | LCL, MCL, Patella Ligament, Oblique/Arcuate Popliteal *(Ligament Types) |
| Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) | resist anterior motion of tibia, preventing anterior tibial translation |
| Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) | resists posterior tibial translation pushing flexion posteriorly PCL gets tight |
| Flexion | Hamstring Muscle Group |
| Anatomic Position | Toes downward, Palms facing forward, arms at side, standing up |
| Transverse Plane | Superior/Inferior (horizontal) |
| Meniscus Location | Attaches to the tibia only (note side of leg) |
| Articular Cartilage is | Avascular (no blood supply) |
| Arthritis | Joint Inflammation |
| Avasuclar | no blood supply |
