- Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/fractures) to see how fractures of the distal radius bone can affect the wrist joint. Explain the problems that may occur if a fracture of the distal radius involves the joint surface of the radiocarpal joint of the wrist.arrow_forwardPalpate as many of the following structures as possible, and identify which ones cannot normally be palpated on a living person: the inferior angle of the scapula, the subscapular fossa, the acromion, the epicondyles of the humerus, the olecranon, and the interosseous membrane of the forearm?arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/synjoints) to see an animation of synovial joints in action. Synovial joints are places where bones articulate with each other inside of a joint cavity. The different types of synovial joints are the ball-and-socket joint (shoulder joint), hinge joint (knee), pivot joint (atlantoaxial joint, between C1 and C2 vertebrae of the neck), condyloid joint (radiocarpal joint of the wrist), saddle joint (first carpometacarpal joint, between the trapezium carpal bone and the first metacarpal bone, at the base of the thumb), and plane joint (facet jointsof vertebral column, between superior and inferior articular processes). Which type of synovial joint allows for the widest ranges of motion?arrow_forward

- A 22-year-old female patient arrives in the emergency department after a skiing accident. She was going downhill quickly when she twisted, fell, and reports hearing and feeling a "pop" in the right knee. The ED physician has diagnosed her with an ACL year and refers her to the orthopedic surgeon for arthroscopic repair. How is it positioned in relation to the other knee ligaments?arrow_forwardName and describe the arrangement of the bones of the arm (between the scapula and the carpal bones, not including the scapula or carpal bones) and the bones of the leg (between the hip bone and the tarsal bones, not including the hip bone or tarsal bones). You should of course use anatomical position as the reference point. And you should be using the appropriate anatomical directional terms.arrow_forwardWatch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/kneejoint1) to learn more about the anatomy of the kneejoint, including bones, joints, muscles, nerves, and bloodvessels.
