Joints and Movements The Joints Definition: A joint (articulation) is point of contact between bones or between bone and cartilage. Joint Classifications Joints are classified by: The degree of movement they allow The structure of the joint The three types of joints that we will look at are: 1. Fibrous joints 2. Cartilaginous joints 3. Synovial joints Fibrous Joints These joints are also called "fixed" or "immoveable" joints‚ because they do not move. These joints have no joint cavity

Dermatome (anatomy) A dermatome is an area of skin that is mainly supplied by a single spinal nerve. There are eight cervical nerves (C1 being an exception with no dermatome)‚ twelve thoracic nerves‚ five lumbar nerves and five sacral nerves. Each of these nerves relays sensation (including pain) from a particular region of skin to the brain. Along the thorax and abdomen the dermatomes are like a stack of discs forming a human‚ each supplied by a different spinal nerve. Along the arms and the

In analyzing a normal day of school or work‚ we use a countless number of muscles‚ ligaments‚ tendons‚ and many other anatomical structures in order to carry out normal functions. Walking‚ for example‚ is taken for granted by most people because it is something we need to go about our day. By not being able to walk‚ life becomes very challenging and a daily struggle to accomplish simple tasks such as going to class or getting around your living environment. One structure extremely important to

Grasp reflex (palmar and plantar): Light touch of the palm or sole produces reflex flexion of the fingers or toes. The most effective way to elicit the reflex is to slide the stimulating object‚ such as a finger or pencil‚ across the palm or sole from the lateral border. A beautiful neurological organization of the palmar grasp reflex has been described‚ in which finger flexion follows a definite sequence: “middle - ring – little – index – thumb”. Chain responses follow the initial

you pull your arm towards you bending at the elbow. Antagonist – is the muscle‚ which relaxes to allow the movement to occur e.g. the triceps will relax to allow your arm the bend at the elbow. Flexion – decreasing the angle between two joints e.g. bending at the elbow or bending at the knee. Flexion also occurs at other joints like the shoulder or hip where there may not be any obvious bend in the joint. Extension – increasing the angle between two joints e.g. straightening the elbow or knee
