Question

directions: pick up a card. act out the motion described on the card. the rest of the class will guess the motion and write down the bones and types of joints used in that motion. activity: standing up from a chair bones used: ________ joints used: ______ activity: jumping bones used: ______ joints used: ______ activity: nodding bones used: ______ joints used: ______ activity: climbing stairs bones used: ______ joints used: ______ activity: pointing bones used: ______ joints used: ______ activity: stretching your arms overhead bones used: ______ joints used: ________

Explanation:

For standing up from a chair, bones like femur, tibia, fibula, and hip - bones are used, and joints such as hip (ball - and - socket), knee (hinge) are involved. Jumping uses femur, tibia, fibula, tarsals, metatarsals, and phalanges, with hip (ball - and - socket), knee (hinge), and ankle (hinge) joints. Nodding uses skull and cervical vertebrae bones, with atlanto - occipital (condyloid) joint. Climbing stairs uses similar lower - limb bones as standing and jumping, with hip, knee, and ankle joints. Pointing uses phalanges, metacarpals, and carpals in the hand, with interphalangeal (hinge) and carpometacarpal (saddle) joints. Stretching arms overhead uses humerus, radius, ulna, scapula, and clavicle, with shoulder (ball - and - socket) and elbow (hinge) joints.
