QUESTIONS AND 100% CORRECT
ANSWERS
\Q\.biomechanial models - ANSWER-✔provide a means for examining movement in areas of
occupation; guide practitioners to interventions that emphasize remediation of specific
body structures and functions
\Q\.reconstruction model - ANSWER-✔use of voluntary activities that are graded and adapted
to
specific muscles and joints to restore physical function after illness or injury
\Q\.orthopedic model - ANSWER-✔use of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and kinesiology in
the design of restorative activities for specific muscle and joint problems
\Q\.kinetic model - ANSWER-✔analysis of activity in terms of anatomy, physiology, pathology,
and kinesiology to restore function via adaptive equipment or compensatory
exercise techniques
\Q\.rehabilitation model - ANSWER-✔daptations toward function in meaningful activity, not
remediation of specific body parts; includes biomechanics as a frame of reference that
occurs in the context of solving problems associated with meaningful activities
,\Q\.four domains of function - ANSWER-✔▪ Level of independence
▪ Level of effort
▪ Degree of efficiency
▪ Degree of safety
\Q\.sagittal plane - ANSWER-✔divides body into left and right
\Q\.movements in sagittal plane - ANSWER-✔flexion and extension
\Q\.frontal plane - ANSWER-✔divides the body into front and back portions
\Q\.movements in frontal plane - ANSWER-✔abduction and adduction
\Q\.transverse plane - ANSWER-✔divides the body into top and bottom parts
\Q\.movement in transverse plane - ANSWER-✔rotation
\Q\.concentric contraction - ANSWER-✔muscle shortens
\Q\.eccentric contraction - ANSWER-✔muscle lengthens
\Q\.isometric contraction - ANSWER-✔muscle tenses but does not shorten or lengthen
\Q\.agonist - ANSWER-✔muscle that acts as a primary mover
,\Q\.antagonist - ANSWER-✔muscle that opposes the agonist
\Q\.synergist - ANSWER-✔muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent
rotation
\Q\.center of gravity - ANSWER-✔the balance point in or near a body of matter located where
the
resultant force of the gravitational forces acting on the body's component particles
converges; where the most mass is located
\Q\.in anatomical position, center of gravity is around - ANSWER-✔S2 (belt buckle)
\Q\.base of support - ANSWER-✔the amount of contact area that a body resting on a surface
assumes;
where the body articulates with the external environment
\Q\.base of support determines our - ANSWER-✔stability
\Q\.when base of support shifts, so does - ANSWER-✔center of gravity
\Q\.internal forces - ANSWER-✔muscle contractions generated internally by body tissues
\Q\.external forces - ANSWER-✔affect the body from the outside
\Q\.normal forces - ANSWER-✔directed perpendicularly towards or from surface area
, \Q\.compressive force - ANSWER-✔pushing force
\Q\.tensile force - ANSWER-✔pulling apart
\Q\.shear forces - ANSWER-✔directed parallel to surface area
\Q\.torsion forces - ANSWER-✔twisting or rotational forces
\Q\.bending forces - ANSWER-✔applied to a part with no support of the structure
\Q\.newtons first law - ANSWER-✔Law of Inertia
\Q\.law of intertia - ANSWER-✔objects at rest tend to stay at rest, and objects in motion tend to
stay in motion
\Q\.newtons second law - ANSWER-✔law of acceleration
\Q\.law of acceleration - ANSWER-✔f=ma
\Q\.newtons third law - ANSWER-✔Law of action and reaction
\Q\.law of action and reaction - ANSWER-✔For every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction
-if a force acts on an object and that object remains stationary, an equal force must be acting on
the object in the opposite direction
