Briefly‚ Anatomically‚ the skin and muscles of the forearm ‚ hand and fingers are innervated by three major nerves‚ which are; the Median‚ the Radial and the Ulnar nerves. These nerves can be susceptible to injuries and compression at different locations on their paths as they innervate the skin and muscles of the forearm‚ hand and fingers. Having established that‚ the carpal tunnel is a relatively narrow passageway that is formed anteriorly by the flexor retinaculum and posteriorly by the carpal

The median nerve is responsible for the flexor muscles of the forearm (except the flexor carpi ulnaris and the medial half of the flexor digitorum profundus) and the muscles of the thenar compartment and lateral two lumbricals. It is commonly injured with a fracture of the supracondylar humerus. The median nerve roots

For this assignment we are looking at the skeletal system. The skeleton is the internal framework of our body. It is made up of three things; bones‚ cartilage and joints. Without these three things we would just be a heap of skin‚ muscle and internal organs. The skeleton is made up of 206 bones that are separated into two groups. Firstly‚ the Axial Skeleton. The Axial skeleton is made up of 80 different bones whereas the Appendicular skeleton is made up of 126 bones. The Axial Skeleton The axial

Skinput The Human Arm Touch screen Abstract Devices with significant computational power and capabilities can now be easily carried on our bodies. However‚ their small size typically leads to limited interaction space (e.g.‚ diminutive screens‚ buttons‚ and jog wheels) and consequently diminishes their usability and functionality. Since we cannot simply make buttons and screens larger without losing the primary benefit of small size‚ we consider alternative approaches that enhance interactions

Simple Machines Definitions: Machine- A device that makes work easier by changing the speed ‚ direction‚ or amount of a force. Simple Machine- A device that performs work with only one movement. Simple machines include lever‚ wheel and axle‚ inclined plane‚ screw‚ and wedge. Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA)- A machine in which work in equals work out; such a machine would be frictionless and a 100% efficient IMA= De/Dr Actual Mechanical Advantage (AMA)- It is pretty much the opposite of

The Skeletal System is the framework of the body‚ consisting of 206 bones as well as a network of tendons that is made of tough band of fibrous collagen tissue connecting a muscle to bone‚ ligaments connecting bones to joint and cartilage that allows some flexibility of movement. The skeletal system serves 4 functions: (1) Giving the body its shape (2) Protecting the vital internal organs (3) Allowing for movement (4) Storing minerals and producing blood cells The skeletal system has 6 basic components:
