Anatomy 337 Unit 4 Exam UW
Madison|334 Complete Q’s and A’s
articular surface - -where two bone surfaces come together, forming a joint,
they conform to eachother (ex: one rounded and the other one cupped)

- Condyle - -Large rounded articular surface

- facet - -flat articular surface

- head - -Bony expansion carried on a narrow neck

- neck - -Narrowed region next to the head

- trochlea - -smooth spool-shaped surface

- crest - -Narrow prominent ridge of bone

- epicondyle - -A raised area on or above a condyle

- line - -Narrow ridge of bone

- process - -bony prominence

- spine - -Sharp, slender projection

- trochanter - -Very large, irregularly shaped process

- tubercle - -Small rounded projection or process

- tuberosity - -Large rounded projection, may be roughened

- Opening and depressions - -for passage of blood vessels and nerves

- tendon/ligament attatchments - -typically project at least a small amount
above the surface of bone; larger the attachment site, the greater the force
transmitted through the attatchment

- fossa - -Shallow basin-like depression

- sulcus - -a larger groove

- notch - -Indentation at the edge of a bone

,- foramen - -Round or oval hole through a bone

- canal - -elongated passage in bone

- fissure - -slit through bone

- fovea - -small pit

- origin - -proximal attachment of a muscle; stays stable

- insertion - -distal attachment of a muscle; moves while muscle contracts

- agonist - -the muscle that is acting to complete a particular movement.

- primer mover - -the agonist muscle that is most responsible for
completing that specific movement (psoas major)

- antagonist - -a muscle with an action that opposes the action of the
agonist (ex: the triceps brachii is the antagonist to the muscles that flex the
elbow because the triceps brachii acts to extend the elbow)
-muscles in opposing compartments

- synergist - -a muscle that assists with a particular movement
-two agonists can be this together
-can stabilize a joint
-contributor, stabilizer, fixator, neutralizer
-muscles in same compartment

- if the muscle fibers are longer... - -then the greater range of motion for the
muscle

- if the muscles have a larger cross-sectional area... - -then they can
produce more force

- muscles with opposite actions.... - -lie on opposite sides of a joint

- fascicle arrangement (provides info about muscle action) - -4 of them:
circular, parallel, convergent, pennate (unipennate, bipennate, multipennate)

- what does a muscle can only pull mean? - --when muscles contract, it get
shorter so pulls on bone
-when relaxes goes back to normal size
-muscles work in pairs to move a joint

- A muscle that crosses on the anterior side of a joint produces - -flexion

, - a muscle that crosses on the posterior side produces - -extension

- a muscle that crosses on the lateral side produces - -abduction

- a muscle that crosses on the medial side produces - -adduction

- rectus - -straight

- subclavian artery (UE) - --major branch is the thyrocervical trunk,
supplying the neck, shoulders, and upper back

- thyrocervical trunk - -has two major branches, the suprascapular artery
supplying the supraspinatus and infraspinatus, and the dorsal scapular artery
supplying the levator scapulae, rhomboids, and trapezius muscles
--supplies the neck, shoulders and upper back

- suprascapular artery - -supplying the supraspinatus and infraspinatus

- dorsal scapular artery - -supplying the levator scapulae, rhomboids, and
trapezius muscles

- subclavian artery becomes.... - -axillary artery at the lateral border of the
first rib

- axillary artery becomes... - -brachial artery at inferior border of teres
major

- brachial artery divides into... - -radial artery and ulnar artery in the cubital
fossa

- brachial artery - -Continuation of the axillary artery in the brachium
-supplies anterior arm
-deep brachial artery: supplies posterior arm (traceps brachii)
-in the cubital fossa, divides into the radial, ulnar, and palmar arches arteries

- radial artery - -Formed at the brachial artery's bifurcation; parallels the
radius; gives off smaller branches until it reaches the carpal region where it
fuses with the ulnar artery to form the superficial and deep palmar arches;
supplies blood to lateral forearm and hand

- ulnar artery - -Formed at the brachial artery's bifurcation; parallels the
ulna; gives off smaller branches until it reaches the carpal region where it
fuses with the radial artery to form the superficial and deep palmar arches;
supplies blood to medial forearm and hand
