DEFINITION 4 DENSE Tendons -- parallel arrangement of fibers Ligaments -- varied arrangement of fibers joint capsules aponeuroses fascia -- continous with itself throughout the body and lacks obvious organization of fibers TERM 5
DEFINITION 5 beneath skin like packing material between muscles enveloping them and continous with periosteum of bone between organs as endothoracic and endoabdominal paratendon in the synovial layer
Hyaline -- Between articulating bones Fibrocartilage -- IV discs, Menisci, TMJ disc, Adipose tissue Bone Muscle TERM 7
DEFINITION 7 Allow tissues to deform and return to preexisting state Lungs Blood vessels Ligaments with large proportion of elastin have more flexibility than tensile strength Ligamentum flavum TERM 8
DEFINITION 8 developed for children to ID soft tissue diseasesHypermobility describes joints that stretch further than normal. For example, some hypermobile people can bend their thumbs backwards to their wrists, bend their knee joints backwards, put their leg behind the head or perform other contortionist "tricks". TERM 9

DEFINITION 10 ehlers danlos -- affects joints marfan syndrome -- affects all tissues (heart and heart valves particularly) Hypermobility syndrome (HMS)
When spine is loaded at end-range, creep occurs Squeezes fluid out of the compressed IV disks, the cartilage of the facet joints, and the stretched spinal ligaments Deprives the soft tissues of part of their nutrition Straightens the natural collagen crimp where Fibrils elongate under sustained load Recovery takes considerable time TERM 17

DEFINITION 18 blunt force trauma TERM 19
DEFINITION 19 History of acute onset by Overstretch or Excessive loading Pain localized in area of injury at the Musculotendinous junction Pain with contraction (force on msktendinous jxn) Pain with stretch 1 and 2 Pain with palpation of muscle belly depends on severity May be discolored if severe as Blood pools distal to injury Weakness present in 2 and 3 TERM 20
DEFINITION 20 Result of a direct blowDifferent hx than muscle strainCharacterized by edema and discolorationPain local to the area of injury palpation of injured area muscle contraction stretch of muscle belly
