EXSS 175 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Hip Bone, Trochanter, Blood Vessel
Document Summary
Foramen: opening through which blood vessels, nerves, or ligaments pass. Serve as attachment sites for connective tissue: what the primary types? (processes that form joints) Crest: prominent ridge or elongated projection (i. e. illiac of hip bone) Tubercle: projection above a condyle (i. e. medial epicondyle of, sharp, slender projection (i. e. s. p. of vertebra, very large projection (i. e. greater trochanter of femur, small, rounded projection (i. e. greater tubercle of the humerus) Important muscular terms: origin, insertion, action, innervation. Placement of muscle attachment for the stationary bone. Placement of the muscle attachment for the bone it moves. Sagittal plane - divides body into unequal left and right sides. Frontal (coronal) plane: divides into equal right and left sides. Divides the body into superior and inferior portions. Flexion: what are the basic joint actions in the sagittal plane? think of examples. Tuberosity: large, rounded, usually roughened projection (i. e. ischial)
