  14. Primary factors affecting joint ROM
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4.

    • - loose packed
    • - ligaments and capsules are slack
    • - minimal joint surface contact
    • - allows for necessary accessory movement for spin, roll, and glide
  17. Convex joint surface moves in _________ direction of the bone segment.
    opposite
  18. Concave joint surface moves in the ______ direction as the bone segment.
    same
  19. ________= less than normal range of motion.
    hypomobility
  20. ___________= exceeds the normal range of joint motion.
    hypermobility
  21. _________: joint is fibrous and cartilaginous tussue that allows little to no motion at the joint (fibrous and cartilaginous)
    synarthroses
  22. ____________: joint is covered by synovial, fluid filled capsule and allows moderate to extensive motion
    diarthrosis
  23. _________ Motion: each point along tho object moves through space at the same angle, at he same time, at heht same angular velocity, and at a contstant distance from the axis of rotation.
    Rotary motion
  24. True or false:
    No true rotary motion occurs in the body because most joints are not fixed axes
    true
  25. Lever system for rotation
    1. what are the levers?
    2. what are the axes of motion?
    3. what causes the levers to rotate?
    • 1. bones
    • 2. joints
    • 3. muscles, gravity, other forces
  26. ______ is defined as rotation around a fixed point with translation through space
    Curvilinear motion
  27. _______ is described as movement of an object or segment through space in a straight line.
    translatory motion
  28. Open chain kinematic chain
    ______ segment of the chain _____ in space while the ________ segment is ______.
    Distal segment of the chain moves in space with the proximal segment is fixed

    e.g. bicep curl
  29. Closed kinematic chain:
    _______ segment of the chain is ________ while the _______ segment ________.
    Distal segment of the chain is fixed while the proximal segment moves.

    e.g. squat
  30. ________ is known as movement in which a body part's motion can describe a cone; the apex of the cone is at the joint and the base of it is at the distal end of the body part
