Conclusion

Part 1

1.

What are osteogenic cells?

Osteogenic cells are bone stem cells

2.

What are bordering cells?

Bordering cells are cells on the surface of the bones.

3.

What maintains the normal blood calcium concentration?

The continuous deposition and resorption of bone matter.

4.

What is the cause of rickets?

Rickets are caused by deficiency of minerals in the bones.

5.

What is the cause of achondroplasia?

Achondroplasia is due to the defect of the endochondral bone and the growth of the cartilage.

6.

What is osteogenesis imperfecta?

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disease due to collagen deficiency and the person is at risk for frequent bone fractures.

7.

What is another name for the frontal plane?

Another name for the frontal plane is coronal.

8.

What is another name for the cross-sectional plane?

Another name for the cross-sectional plane is Axial.

9.

The upper part of the body is also called?

The cranial.

10.

The lower part of the body is also called?

The caudal.

11.

What is an agonist muscle?

An agonist muscle is a muscle that allows movement in the same direction.

12.

What is an antagonist muscle?

An antagonist muscle is a muscle that opposes movement.

13.

Name the main movements of joints.

Flexion: to bend or to shorten the limb.

Extension: extends the limb.

Abduction: movement that moves the body away from the median.

Adduction: movement that approaches the body to the median.

Lateral rotation: an external rotation movement.

Circumduction: movement with 3 degrees of flexibility.

Part 2

1.

On which plane does the flexion/extension movement take place?

On the sagittal plane.

2.

On which axis does the flexion/extension movement take place?

On the frontal-transversal axis.

3.

On which plane does the abduction/adduction movement take place?

On the frontal plane.

4.

On which axis is the abduction/adduction movement?

On the sagittal-transversal axis.

5.

What is a coronal cut?

A coronal cut is the frontal cut of the brain or head.

6.

What is a hypertension movement?

A hypertension movement is a movement beyond the normal flexibility.

7.

For the knee, the movement of extension is towards which direction? Interior or exterior?

The exterior.

8.

For the knee, the movement of flexion is towards which direction? Interior or exterior?

The interior.

9.

Why are the hand and foot stable?

The hand and foot are stable due to the deep transverse metatarsal ligaments that bind them together.

10.

What is a contusion?

A contusion is a lesion without fissure often caused from the outside by a mechanical force.

11.

What is a dislocation?

A dislocation is the displacement of the bones from their joint.

12.

What is a sprain?

A sprain is a stretch of the ligaments without being torn off.

13.

What are synovial joints?

Synovial joints are mobile joints.
