| Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Minimus, Tensor Fascia Lata | Which muscles are involved with Hip Medial Rotation |
| Semimembranosus, semitendinosus, bicep femoris | 3 major muscles make up the hamstrings |
| Gluteus maximus, bicep femoris, semimembranosus, semitendinosus | Muscles involved with hip extension |
| Origin: medial aspect of the ischial tuberosity Insertion: medial surface of upper shaft of tibia | Semitendinosus attachments |
| Origin: lateral aspect of the ischial tuberosity Insertion: posteromedial surface of the medial tibial condyle | Semimembranosus attachments |
| Gluteus maximus, bicep femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus | Muscles involved in hip extension |
| Pectineus, sartorius, psoas major, iliacus, rectus femoris | Muscles involved in hip flexion |
| Adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis, pectineus, gracilis | Muscles involved in hip adduction |
| Gluteus maximus, piriformis, superior gamelles, obturator internus, inferior gamelles, obturator externus, quadratus femoris | Muscles involved in hip lateral rotation |
| Origin: bodies and adjacent transverse processes L1 - L5 Insertion: lesser trochanter of femur | Psoas major |
| Origin: upper and posterior two thirds of the iliac fossa Insertion: lesser trochanter of femur | Iliacus |
| Origin: AIIS, ilium just superior to acetabulum insertion: tibial tuberosity via patellar ligament | Rectus femoris |
| Symphysis and synchondrosis | The two types of cartilaginous joints |
| Suture and syndesmosis | The two types of fibrous joints |
| Ball and socket, condyloid, plane, hinge, pivot, ellipsoid, saddle | What are the different types of synovial joints |
| Synovial, ball and socket, multiaxial | Classify the hip joint |
| Pubofemoral, ischiofemoral, iliofemoral, transverse, ligamentus teres | What are the 5 hip ligaments |
| Limits abduction, extension, external rotation | Pubofemoral ligament |
| Limits: Superior Band: adduction, external rotation, extension Inferior band: external rotation, extension | Iliofemoral ligament |
| Limits: internal rotation, extension, abduction | Ischiofemoral |
| Synovial, multiaxial, plane | Patellofemoral joint |
| Synovial, biaxial, condyloid | Tibiofemoral joint |
| Skull | Suture |
| Connective tissue connecting radius and ulna | Syndesmosis |
| Head of femur | Synchondrosis |
| Spinal cord | Symphysis |
| Shock absorbers, aids lubrication, aids mechanical fit, restrain movement | Articular disc functions |
| Angle of inclination, angle of pull, articular fit, joint capsule, acetabulum labrum, transverse ligament | Factors aiding stability of hip |
| The angle of the neck of femur to the shaft of the femur | Angle of inclination |
| More range of movement, less powerful - maximum shortening of muscle belly, movement at associated joint, but not great force development | Parallel muscle contraction |
| More powerful, less range of movement - less shortening of belly, less movement at associated joint, but more powerful | Oblique muscle contraction |
| Strap, fusiform, flat/quadrilateral, triangular | Parallel muscle types |
| Unipennate, bipennate, multipennate | Oblique muscle types |
| Muscles attach to a sheet of connective tissue which then attaches to another muscle | Raphe attachment |
| Tubular synovial sheaths that wrap around tendons. Allows tendons to slide over other structures without friction | Tendon sheaths |
| Synovial, biaxial, condyloid | Tibiofemoral |
| Synovial, multiaxial, plane | Patellofemoral |
| Flexion/extension & external/internal rotation | Movement of tibiofemoral |
| Increases the mechanical advantage, or leverage, of quads - protection for the patellar tendon/ligament - spreads compressive forces passing through the femoral condyles | Functions of patella |
| Femur (male) - medial and lateral femoral condyles/ Tibia (female) - medial and lateral tibial condyles | Articular surfaces of tibiofemoral joint |
| Medial condyle longer than lateral condyle | Femoral medial condyle |
| Medial condyle larger, more oval and more convex than lateral condyle | Differences between tibial condyles |
