Atlas + bony markings
C1, has a larger articulating surface superiorly to meet with the skull, facet for the dens (C2) to articulate,

C2 Axis + Bony markings
Vertical process on the superior side (DENS) to extend and articulate with C1, lets C1 to spin on top of C2

Joints of CS-atlanto occiptial joint-
atlanto occipital joint- skull and atlas
headflexion and extension (think double chin, head motion, not great range)
Joints of CS- AtlantoAxial
atlas and axis articulate with the dens, cervical rotation, pivot joint

Joints of the CS- Facet joints
between the transverse processes, C2-C7, the rest of the spinal column, functional=diarthrodial, structural=synovial, gliding joints with minimal movement, built for stability and not for mobility
motions: flexion/extension, lateral bending, rotation

Lordosis vs Kyphosis
Lordosis is the convex anterior in middle curvature in C spine, important for force distribution and shock absorption
Kyphosis is what causes the thoracic spine to bend outward, producing a rounded or “hunchback” appearance.

Fibrocartilage discs
joint type- amphidiplrodal, think jelly donut analogy
contains an outer layer=annulus, center jelly layer= nucleus pulposus; layers are important for shock absorption
CS: neuromuscular
The spinal cord goes through foramen in each vertabrae; the nerve root runs through the intervertebral foramen and decreases in size as it branches, sending/receiving sensory and motor information.
CS Muscles: SCM- O, I, action
sternocleidomastoid
originates at the sternum/clavicle
inserts at the mastoid process

Thoracic spine bones- Vertebrae
12 vertebrae, no transverse foramin, have a costal facet to articulate with the ribs

Thoracic spine bones: Ribs
12 pairs for the 12 thoracic vertebrae
True ribs (1- 7)- protect and support the internal organs like the heart and lungs and are directly supported by the sternum
False Ribs (8-10) Protect of organs like the spleen and stomach
Floating ribs (11-12) guard organs like kidneys, are not connected all the way around

Thoracic spine JOINTS- Facet Joints
Joints between the vertebrae, T1-12, these ‘synch’ with C7 and L1, these are Diarthrodial Synovial Gliding joints

Thoracic spine JOINTS- Costovertebral
joint between the ribs and vertebrae, Diarthrodial synovial gliding joints that can flex and extend

Thoracic spine JOINTS-Sternoclavicular
Joint between the sternumn and clavicle

Thoracic spine JOINTS- Acromioclavicular
AKA AC joint, Between the acromion process and the clavicle, diarthrodial synovial gliding, can perform gliding and slight rotation as needed with shoulder movement

Thoracic spine JOINTS- Coracoclavicular
between the coracoid process and the clavicle, a diarthrodial synovial gliding joint, disperses load and stabilizes as needed with shoulder movement

Thoracic spine JOINTS- Scapulothoracic
Between the scapula and the ribcage (thoracic spine)
False diarthrodial joints, glides for protraction/retraction, elevation/depression, upward rotation/downward rotation

Erector Spinae
Origin= lumbar inferior thoracic aponeurosis (thick band of CT instead of aponeurosis
insertion (3 parts)
Spinalis= superior thoracic
Longissimus = C2-6 Mastoid process
Iliocostalis= Ribs

Serratus anterior
Orgin-Posterior Lateral Aspect Ribs 1-9
Insertion= Medial Border of Scapula
Actions= scapular stabilozer, protraction of scapula, upward rotation of scapula, (winging scapula applied, why would a weak serratus anterior cause winging scapula?

Internal vs external intercostals
internal intercostals depress the ribs for exhalation, squeezing out excess air
External intercostals elevate the ribs for inhalation they elevate ribs

Pectoralis Major
Origin on clavicle and sternum, plus costal cartilage
Insertion on the lateral humerus
actions
adduction and IR of humerus
flexion, adduction when <90, abduction when >90*

what is the ratio of the scapulohumeral rhythm

elbow bones
Humerus, ulna, radius
what are the two elbow joints
both diarthrodial synovial joints
Humeroulnar- medial
radiohumeral- lateral more joint space, less bone on bone more soft tissue provides more mobility
HINGE JOINTS PROVIDIN ELBOW FLEXION AND EXTENTION

Forearm Syndesmosis
interosseous membrane between the ulna and radius, diarthrodial synovial pivot joint, the radius pivots on the ulna for pronation and supination, some stability some moibility

Elbow ligaments- extension
bone on bone locking olecranon process in the fossa, CLOSED PACKED POSITION, less mobile more stable
Elbow flexion
Less stabile more mobile, Ligament support for force transmission/mobility
Ulnar collateral ligament (medial) connects the ulna and humerus in 3 parts, protects from valgus stress (outside in) esp in overhead elbow ext.
Radial Collateral ligament- connects the radius and humerus protect from varus stress- middle out, helps prevent excess lateral rotational instability
