What is the relationship between the tightness of the ligaments reinforcing joints and that joint's range of motion?The tighter the ligaments, the less range of motionWhich of the following joints permits you to shake your head "no"?The synovial pivot joint between C1 & C2Cervical vertebrae articulate with ribs. true or falsefalseBad luck! You fall backward and land on your elbow, breaking off the tip. What bone is broken?ulnaWhich of the following joints allows flexion, extension and slight rotation?the joint between the tibia & femurWhat is the most inferior articulation between the axial and appendicular skeletons?The joint between the sacrum and iliumCompare the hip and shoulder. Which joint has more contact with its socket?The femoroacetabularComparing the glenohumeral and femoroacetabular joints:the femoroacetabular joint has a larger labrum.What is the advantage or disadvantage of being a more or less stable joint?Less stable joints have more range of motionWhat ligament passes from the scapula to the humerus to reinforce the shoulder joint?The glenohumeral ligamentThe acromioclavicular joint is an amphiarthrotic syndesmosis. true or falsefalseWhich of the following will NOT likely reduce movement of the upper limb?Increased tightness of the acetabular labrumTrue or False? You can achieve full range of upper limb motion at the shoulder (flexion, extension, abduction and adduction) only through movements of the glenohumeral joint.falseWhich of the following will least likely reduce movement of the upper limb?Decreased elasticity of the sacroiliac ligamentWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, which could have caused her osteoporosis (low bone mass)?Too high PTH productionWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, what type of medication would most help her fracture heal faster?A medication that stimulates collagen formationWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, which will most likely improve this woman's overall, long-term bone health?increasing dietary vitamin CWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, what bone of the appendicular skeleton is fractured?ClavicleWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, which best describes the injured joint prior to her surgery?A synovial jointWhile walking, a post-menopausal grandmother falls off a curb and lands hard on her outstretched right arm. Her physicians diagnose a fracture of the bone which forms the only bony connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. They also note damage to the joint between the fractured bone and the axial skeleton. They perform surgery to realign the bone at the fracture to allow proper healing and they use a titanium plate to permanently secure the fractured bone to the axial skeleton at the injured joint. However, they are particularly concerned because her bone mass is quite low and due to her advanced age, she also has low osteoblast activity. Using the above passage, following her surgery, which of the following activities would be most affected?Scratching her left shoulder blade with her right handIn anatomy, collateral means accessory, subordinate, secondary, serving to support or reinforce. Knowing this, where would you expect to find the tibial collateral ligament?on the medial aspect of the kneeThe sarcolemma is:skeletal muscle's cell membraneIn a muscle cell:there are many nuclei and the sarcoplasm contains abundant mitochondriaSkeletal muscle cells contain contractile proteins organized into:myofibrilsA group of muscle cells, called a fascicle, are surrounded by which connective tissue layer?perimysiumWhich of the following is a protein that acts to permit the action of another protein?troponinWhich is true?Myofilaments are protiensSodium (Na+) is more concentrated outside of cells than inside cells. What would happen if the cell membrane permeability to sodium suddenly changed?Sodium rushes into the cell passively (net inward movement)What type of channels in the motor end plate bind Ach (acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter)?Chemically (ligand) gated sodium channelsAcetylcholinesterase breaks down Ach in the synaptic cleft. What would happen if you somehow increased the amount of acetylcholinesterase (or its activity) in the synaptic cleft?Muscle contractions would be shorter or may not happenWhy is the concentration of calcium so high in the sarcoplasmic reticulum during rest?Because ATP dependent pumps actively move it there from the sarcoplasmWhat type of fluid is found in the transverse tubules (t-tubules)?Extracellular fluid (ECF)When a motor neuron and the skeletal muscle cell it innervates are at rest:calcium is actively transported into the SR.Why is acetylcholine (Ach) used at the junction between neurons and muscle cells?Because the neuron's action potential cannot cross the synaptic cleftWhy do sodium ions enter a cell when gated sodium channels open?They move down their concentration gradient passively, by diffusion.To be activated, skeletal muscle fibers must receive neurotransmitter from neurons. What structure must neurons penetrate to activate the myofiber?endomysiumWhat would happen if your cell membranes did not contain sodium-potassium pumps?Both: you would not be able to send signals on neurons, you would not be able to generate signals on the sarcolemma of muscle cells.Where in a sarcomere do you find titin and tropomyosin, but not myosin?I-bandWhere in a sarcomere do you find the thick filament, but not the thin filament?H-zoneAs a contracting muscles shortens the _____ lengthens.Zone of overlapWhat organelle of skeletal muscle cells stores calcium used in muscle contaction?the sarcoplasmic reticulumDuring skeletal muscle activation, each myosin requires ____ ATP per cross bridge cycle, and myosin heads cycle ____.one; as often as possibleAt rest, why is myosin in the high energy state? (Rest means no AP on the sarcolemma.)Because the energy in ATP was transferred to the myosin after the ATP caused crossbridge detachment.During sustained skeletal muscle contractions, crossbridges areconstantly breaking and reforming asynchronously.Motor neurons are required for the activation of skeletal muscle cells. Which of the following does NOT describe the function of acetylcholine (Ach) in muscle activation?To enter the sarcoplasm and change transmembrane potentialIn cramping, muscle force develops and then is sustained (relaxation does not occur). Which of the following is most likely the cause of this?Insufficient ATP to break cross bridges
