Unit 1- Sport BTEC LEVEL 3 Anatomy and
Physiology Exam
Kyphosis-Answer The back takes the shape of a hunch.
What is scoliosis? -Answer Lateral curvature of the spine.
What is Nuetral spine alignment? -Answer An S shape of the spine from the side view.
What what are bone cells comprised of? -Answer Osteoblasts which form bone by
secreting collagen.
Osteoclasts, which dissolve bone mineral.
Weight bearing - Answer Bones at the pelvis and legs are strong and thick so they can
take weight of skeleton.
Protection - Answer Vital organs are protected from damage due to bone.
What are the function of a long bone? - Answer Source of red blood cell production,
Enable large movement and acts a levers
Types of Bone - ANS long, short, flat, irregular, sesamoid
What is the function of a short bone? - ANS Increase stability, weight bearing and
absorbs shock.
What is the function of the sesamoid bones? - ANS Easy joint movement and resist
, friction.
Functions of flat bones - ANS Protect vital organs and enables muscle attachment and
produce blood cells.
Categories of joints in the body - ANS Fibrous, Cartilaginous, Synovial
What are the types of synovial joints? - Ball and socket, hinge, pivot, gliding, saddle, and
condyloid.
What what are the components of the synovial joint? - Muscle, bone, bursa, articular
cartillage, synovial fluid, synovial membrane, joint capsule, synovial membrane,
ligament and tendon.
What is the function of articular cartilage? - reduces friction and absorbes shock.
What is the function of Ligaments? - Connects bone to bone
What is the role of synovial membrane? -Answer Synovial fluid
What is the function of bursa? -Answer Found in most major synovial joint which reduces
friction.
Flexion -Answer Flexion means reducing the angle of the bones forming the Joint.
What is Plantarflexion and dorsiflexion? -Answer Movement that only occurs at the
ankle. Plantarflextion is positioning toes down.
What is Abduction? - Answer A sideways lateral movement away from the body
What is Adduction? - Answer Bringing bone at the Joint closer to the midline.
