Study Resource Test Bank - Test-Ready Solutions Pack
Study Resource Test Bank - Test-Ready Solutions Pack Kinesiology - answer - The study of human movement combining mechanics, anatomy, and neuromuscular physiology. Kinetics - answer - The study of how forces affect the body and why motion occurs. Kinematics - answer - The description of motion using time, space, and related factors without forces. Osteokinematics - answer - The visible movement of bones relative to anatomical planes. Arthrokinematics - answer - The movement between the articular surfaces of a joint (roll, slide, spin). Active Movement - answer - Movement where the person's muscles actively generate the force. Passive Movement - answer - Movement caused by an outside source like gravity or another person. Degrees of Freedom - answer - The number of planes in which a joint can move. Sagittal Plane - answer - Divides the body into right and left portions. Frontal Plane - answer - Divides the body into anterior and posterior portions. Transverse Plane - answer - Divides the body into superior and inferior portions. Ankle Pronation Components - answer - Dorsiflexion, abduction, and eversion. Ankle Supination Components - answer - Plantarflexion, adduction, and inversion. Six Major Scapular Movements - answer - Protraction, retraction, elevation, depression, upward rotation, and downward rotation. Open Kinetic Chain - answer - Distal segment moves around a relatively fixed proximal segment; usually non-weight-bearing. Closed Kinetic Chain - answer - Distal segment is fixed while the proximal segment moves; usually weight-bearing. Convex on Concave Arthrokinematics - answer - Roll and slide occur in opposite directions. Concave on Convex Arthrokinematics - answer - Roll and slide occur in the same direction. Torque Formula - answer - Force multiplied by the perpendicular distance (moment arm) to the axis. Newton's First Law of Motion - answer - Inertia: an object stays at rest or in motion unless acted upon. Newton's Second Law of Motion - answer - Acceleration depends on net force applied and object mass (F = ma). Newton's Third Law of Motion - answer - For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. First-Class Lever - answer - Axis is located between the force and resistance. Second-Class Lever - answer - Resistance is between the axis and force; favors force production. Third-Class Lever - answer - Force is between the axis and resistance; favors speed and distance. Most Common Lever in the Human Body - answer - Third-class lever. Mechanical Advantage Formula - answer - Force arm divided by the resistance arm. Stable Equilibrium - answer - Disturbance requires the center of gravity to be raised. Factors Increasing Stability - answer - Larger base of support, lower center of gravity, and greater mass.
