1- Which minerals are stored in bones? (five minimum) The minerals that are stored in your bones are calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron, and zinc. 2- Which type of bone provides a large, flat surface area for muscle attachment? The type of bone that provides a large, flat surface area for muscle attachment in a flat bone. 3- Describe the [location, composition, and function] of the epiphyseal plate.
1. Understand anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individuals 1.1 Outline the anatomy and physiology of the human body in relation to the importance of correct moving and positioning of individuals: Muscles: - It is important to move an individual’s limbs safely, avoiding pushing or pulling roughly, as this may cause tendons and muscles to contract too strongly, overstretching or tearing them and causing strains. Joints: - Sprains may also occur in the ligaments, when a joint is forced either out of its normal movement range. There are three different types of joint: - Fixed joints, which have no movement (e.g. in the skull) - Cartilaginous joints, which have small amounts of movement (e.g.
Ligaments support and stabalize the an individuals joints. A strain is an injury that occurs to a muscle and/or tendon. Tendons are fibrous cords of tissue, which connect muscles to bone (Muscle of the Foot and Ankle, n.d). 2. What bones form the articulation (joint) of the ankle?
5. Which ossification method would form a femur? The femur, which is a long bone, is formed by endochondral ossification which is the replacement of cartilage by osseous tissue. Most bones of the body are formed by this process. 6.
Muscles pull and move the bones at particular joints; this makes the joint move and therefore the body moves. When a muscle contracts, it pulls the bones at a joint in the direction that it is designed to move. With reduced mobility, muscles can become floppy and make movement slower and more difficult, but when muscles are used on a regular basis, they remain firm and move more easily. When supporting moving and positioning activities, it is important to remember that muscles can only move the bones at a joint as far as the joint allows. The Muscle Anatomy (http://anatomy.askthetrainer.com/) The Skeleton system (http://www.faqs.org/health/Body-by-Design-V2/The-Skeletal-System-Design-parts-of-the-skeletal-system.html) Nerve fibres run all the way through the body and send impulses to muscles, which enable the muscles to contract and relax.
Which type of bone provides a large, flat surface for muscle to attachment? b. A flat bone provides a large surface for muscle to attach. For example the hip bone and rib bones. 3.
Joints and movement - muscles bring about movement at a joint - muscles can only pull they cannot push so two muscles are needed to move a bone back and forth. - a pair of muscles like these are called antagonistic. - a muscle that contracts to cause extension of a joint is called an extensor - a flexor contracts to reverse the movement - the hip, knee and ankle joints are examples of synovial joints - the bones that move in the joint are separated by a cavity filled with synovial fluid. - the bones are held in position by ligaments that control and restrict movement. -tendons attach muscles to the bones - cartilage protects bones within joints.
Assignment 3:Neuroanatomy Project Physiological Psychology | PSY350 A03 Name: Instructor: Date: The CNS or central nervous system is the foundation of our existence. It controls many interact details that make us unique. Such as our personalities, senses, movements, as well as other functions like heart beat, breathing, and blood pressure. The CNS is encased in bone just as the brain is encased in skull and the spinal cord is encased in the vertebral column. The vertebral column is a structure of bone that is located in the back that encases the spinal cord from top to bottom in order to protect it from injury.
Your joint is surrounded by tissue called the synovium, which supports and protects it. The synovium makes fluid that helps the cartilage and bones of your joint move smoothly. When you have RA, your immune system attacks the synovium causing inflammation, or swelling, and other RA symptoms. Left untreated, an inflamed synovium can damage your cartilage and bone. When this happens, the muscles and tissues that surround the joint weaken.
Force applied to the head may cause the brain to be directly injured or shaken, bouncing against the inner wall of the skull. The trauma can potentially cause bleeding in the spaces surrounding the brain, bruise the brain tissue, or damage the nerve connections within the brain. Caring for the victim with a head injury begins with making certain that the ABCs of resuscitation are addressed (airway, breathing, circulation). Many individuals with head injuries are multiple trauma victims and the care of their brain may take place at the same time other injuries are stabilized and treated. Skull Fracture The skull is made up of many bones that form a solid container for the brain.
