Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

22 notecards = 6 pages (4 cards per page)

Anatomy Final compilation

front 1

What are all the different types of synovial joints

back 1

  • Plane
  • Hinge
  • Pivot
  • Saddle
  • Ball and Socket
  • Condyloid

front 2

Plane Joint

back 2

bones with articulating surfaces that are flat or slightly curved, allowing for limited movement; pivot joints consist of the rounded end of one bone fitting into a ring formed by the other bone to allow rotational movement. Non axial movement
Ex: intercarpal joints, intertarsal joints

front 3

Hinge joint

back 3

act like the hinge of a door; the slightly-rounded end of one bone fits into the slightly-hollow end of the other bone; one bone remains stationary. uni axial movement
ex: elbow

front 4

Pivot joints

back 4

rounded end of one bone fitting into a ring formed by the other bone. This structure allows rotational movement, as the rounded bone moves around its own axis. uni axial movement
ex:Proximal radioulnar joints, radius-ulna

front 5

Condylar Joint

back 5

an oval-shaped end of one bone fitting into a similarly oval-shaped hollow of another bone.allows angular movement along two axes. Bi axial movement
ex: knuckle joints and wrist joints

front 6

Saddle joint

back 6

Each bone in a saddle joint resembles a saddle, with concave and convex portions that fit together. Saddle joints allow angular movements similar to condyloid joints, but with a greater range of motion. Bi-axial movement

example: the thumb joint, which can move back and forth and up and down; it can move more freely than the wrist or fingers .

front 7

Ball and socket joint

back 7

Ball-and-socket joints possess a rounded, ball-like end of one bone fitting into a cup-like socket of another bone. This organization allows the greatest range of motion, as all movement types are possible in all directions. Examples of ball-and-socket joints are the shoulder and hip joints .

front 8

Flexion, extension and hypertension

back 8

flexion- a bending movement that decreases the angle of the joint and brings the articulation bones closer together

Extension- the reverse of flexion. increases the angle between the articulating joints & typically straightens the a flexed limb

hyperextension- continuing such movement beyond the anatomical position

front 9

Gliding

back 9

Occurs when one flat, or nearly flat bone surface glides or slips over another. Occurs in wrist

front 10

Rotation

back 10

The turning of a bone around its own long axis. Rotation may be directed toward or away from midline.

front 11

Abduction and Adduction

back 11

Abduction: Movement of a limb away from the midline or median plane of the body Ex: raising arm or thigh

Adduction: Opposite of Abduction. Movement of a limb towards the midline or body

front 12

Circumduction

back 12

The moving of a limb so that it does a cone in space. The distal end of a limb moves in a circle, while the point of the cone is more or less stationary

front 13

Pronation and supination

back 13

Refers to the movement of radius around the ulna.

Supination: Rotating the forearm laterally so that the palm faces anteriorly or superiorly

Pronation: the forearm rotates medially and the palm faces posteriorly or inferiorly. The two bones form an X

front 14

Dorsiflexion and Plantar Flexion

back 14

Dorsiflexion: Lifting the foot so that its superior surface approaches the shin

Plantar Flexion: Depressing foot. (pointing toes)

front 15

opposition

back 15

Thumb. This movement is the action taken when you touch your thumb to the tips of other fingers on the same hand

front 16

Protraction and Retraction

back 16

Protraction: nonangular anterior movements

Retraction: Nonangular posterior movements

front 17

Elevation and Depression

back 17

Elevation: lifting a body part superiorly

Depression: Moving the elevated part inferiorly
