Identify the structural classification of the joint


Problem 1: Identify the STRUCTURAL classification of the joint(s) that would be acted on by the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle.

Problem 2: Tommy John surgery is performed on an individual that has torn their UCL (ulnar collateral ligament).  This ligament is attached proximally at the _________________, which is also the same location where the origin of the flexor carpi radialis is.

What landmark is the UCL attached to proximally?

Other than the flexor carpi radialis, identify one other muscle we learned that also has an origin at the same spot.

Problem 3: Identify ONE carpal bone that is present in the radiocarpal joint.

Problem 4: You are training with a forensic scientist at a crime scene and you discover a severed finger that is intact, but doesn't include the rest of the hand.  The forensic scientist immediate determines this is the pollux.  Explain how she knew this.

Problem 5: You are an archaeologist called to a construction site. Apparently the workers found a fragment of a bone that appears to be from the brachial region. It only includes the distal end of the bone.  Identify two unique features/landmarks that help you identify the bone.
