Questions and Answers

1.

Hinge joints allow the widest range of movement, and permit side to side, back and forth and rotational movements.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Hinge joints do not allow the widest range of movement. They only permit back and forth movements, similar to the movement of a door hinge. They do not allow for side to side or rotational movements. Therefore, the statement is false.

2.

_____ is a fine membrane which lines the inside of the capsule, but does not cover the hyaline cartilage.
- A.
  
  Hyaline cartilage
- B.
  
  Synovial membrane
- C.
  
  Joint capsule
- D.
  
  Ligaments
Correct Answer
B. Synovial membrane

Explanation
The synovial membrane is a thin layer that lines the inside of the joint capsule. It is responsible for producing synovial fluid, which lubricates the joint and reduces friction between the bones. The synovial membrane does not cover the hyaline cartilage, which is a smooth and flexible type of cartilage that covers the ends of bones in a joint.

______ occurs at the elbow and involves internal (medial) rotation between the radius and humerus, as well as the crossing of the radius and the ulna.
- A.
  
  Dorsiflexion
- B.
  
  Inversion
- C.
  
  Pronation
- D.
  
  Depression
Correct Answer
C. Pronation

Explanation
Pronation is the correct answer because it involves internal rotation between the radius and humerus, as well as the crossing of the radius and the ulna. Pronation refers to the movement of the forearm in which the palm of the hand faces downwards or towards the back. This movement occurs at the elbow joint and is important for activities such as turning a doorknob or pouring a drink.

Superficial is a structure lower or closer to the foot than another.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The given statement is incorrect. Superficial refers to a structure that is closer to the surface or outer layer of the body, not necessarily lower or closer to the foot. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

There are many beneficial effects for the skeletal system through exercise which includes: (Select three)
- A.
  
  The bones respond by becoming thicker and stronger.
- B.
  
  Hyaline cartilage thickens which helps to cushion the joint.
- C.
  
  Tendons become thicker and become able to withstand larger forces.
- D.
  
  Flexibility and mobility training will greatly stretch ligaments.
Correct Answer(s)
A. The bones respond by becoming thicker and stronger.
B. Hyaline cartilage thickens which helps to cushion the joint.
C. Tendons become thicker and become able to withstand larger forces.

Explanation
Exercise has several beneficial effects on the skeletal system. First, it stimulates the bones to adapt by becoming thicker and stronger, which increases their density and reduces the risk of fractures. Second, exercise promotes the thickening of hyaline cartilage, which provides cushioning and support to the joints, reducing the risk of joint injuries. Lastly, exercise helps to strengthen tendons, making them thicker and more resistant to forces, which improves overall joint stability and reduces the risk of tendon injuries.

6.

Wherever three or more bones meet, a joint or articulation exists.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement "Wherever three or more bones meet, a joint or articulation exists" is false. Joints or articulations occur wherever two or more bones meet, not necessarily three or more. This is a basic anatomical fact.

7.

Gliding joints are usually bi-axial, but may permit movement in all directions.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Gliding joints, also known as plane joints, are typically bi-axial, meaning they allow movement in two directions. However, they can also permit movement in all directions, making them multi-axial. This means that while their primary function is bi-axial movement, they have the potential to move in any direction. Therefore, the statement that gliding joints are usually bi-axial but may permit movement in all directions is true.

8.

The frontal or coronal plane runs horizontally and divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) sections.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The given statement is false. The frontal or coronal plane does not run horizontally, but vertically. It divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) sections.
