Abduction Correct Answer Movement away from the body or
body part's midline; lifting your arm up to the horizontal position at
your side

Adduction Correct Answer Movement toward the body or body
part's midline; lowering your arm from the horizontal position back
down to your side

Extension Correct Answer The straightening of a joint that
increases the angle; reaching out your arm, straightening at elbow

Flexion Correct Answer The bending of a joint that decreases the
angle; bending at elbow

Internal Rotation Correct Answer Movement of body part towards
the axis/towards center of body

,External Rotation Correct Answer Movement of body part away
from axis/away from center of body

Retraction Correct Answer Backward (posterior) movement of a
body part; generally referring to scapulae and skull/cervical spine

Protraction Correct Answer Forward (anterior) movement of a
body part; generally referring to scapulae and skull/cervical spine

Hyperextension Correct Answer Extension beyond normal limits,
over extended; a body part or joint is bent backwards too far

Hypoextension Correct Answer Extension that is less than
normal, under-extended; not being able to extend at the knee
because of a tight hamstring

Gliding Correct Answer Movement of non-angular joints over
each other

Deviation Correct Answer Departure from the midline

Pronation Correct Answer Palm of hand turning downward into a
posterior position when arm is down at side; the inward roll of the
foot/arch decreased during normal walking motion

Supination Correct Answer Palm of hand turning upward into an
anterior position when arm is down at side; the outward roll of the
foot/arch heightened during normal walking motion

Inversion Correct Answer Turning both feet inward so the soles
face each other

Eversion Correct Answer Turning both feet outward so the soles
face away from each other

,Plantarflexion Correct Answer Pointing foot downward (e.g. going
up on tiptoes)

Dorsiflexion Correct Answer Pointing foot up towards the shin

The ankle is distal to the hip. Correct Answer True

The wrist is distal to the shoulder. The ______ is proximal to the
wrist. Correct Answer elbow

The knee is _____ to the hip and _____ to the ankle. Correct
Answer distal; proximal

List the 4 types of contraction: Correct Answer 1) isometric
2) isokinetic
3) isotonic - eccentric
4) isotonic - concentric

Isotonic Correct Answer Where the load on the muscle is less
than the generated tension, resulting in movement

Isokinetic Correct Answer Where the muscle contracts and
shortens at a constant rate of speed

Isometric Correct Answer Where the load on the muscle is
greater than the generated tension, no movement takes place

Eccentric Correct Answer Referred to by the increase in the
length of the muscle during isotonic contraction; the "negative"
part of the contraction

Concentric Correct Answer Referred to by the decrease in the
length of the muscle during isotonic contraction; the "positive" part
of the contraction

, Sagittal Plane Correct Answer 1) Vertical Plane
2) Divides: right and left sides

Frontal Plane Correct Answer 1) Motion = abduction and
adduction
2) Divides: front half and back half

Transverse Plane Correct Answer 1) Horizontal Plane
2) Motion = internal rotation and external rotation

The axial skeleton is made up of the bones in the: Correct Answer
trunk, or center of the body

The appendicular skeleton is made of the bones in the: Correct
Answer limbs and upper and lower extremities

Irregular Bones Correct Answer vertebrae, sacrum, coccyx,
mandible, hyoid

Flat Bones Correct Answer cranium, scapula, sternum, ribs, ilium
(pelvis)

Short Bones Correct Answer tarsals (in feet), carpals (in hands)

Sesamoid Bones Correct Answer joint bones in hands, knee
(patella), and feet

Long Bones Correct Answer clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna,
femur, tibia, fibula, metacarpals, metatarsals, phalanges
