The less movable attachment point of a muscle is called the?
Origin
Close to the origin of the body part or point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk?
Proximal means nearest the point of attachment or origin.
Is the wrist proximal to the fingers?
distal to the wrist, because they are away from the shoulder (origin point)
The two-point touch threshold test serves as a demonstration of?
receptive fields It shows relative nerve density within the parameters of the central nervous system's lateral suppression. Lack of two-point sensitivity most likely reflects damage to the central nervous system, especially so when the one-point threshold is not affected.
What is an acromion?
"Acromiom" is a misspelling of "acromion", which is the portion of the scapula (shoulder blade) that articulates with the clavicle (collarbone).
Situated next to or near the point of attachment or origin or a central point?
Proximal
What represents a fixed location in space?
The position is the location of an object relative to an origin
What is used to compare two numbers on a graph?
Their position relative to a reference point - often the origin.
What is the origin point?
its the point of origin
How can we describe an objects location in physics?
With coordinates. A reference frame is chosen (a point of origin, and directions), and the position is described with two or three numbers (one for each dimension required), in relation to the point of origin.
Why is Sacramento is were it is?
Because of its position at the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American river in the Northern portion of the Central Valley. It was a major distribution point, a commercial and agricultural center and a terminus for wagon trains, riverboats, stagecoaches, the Pony Express and the first Transcontinental Railway
How do you drive from New Jersey to Venezuela?
Can't be done. The Pan American Highway has a terminal point at Yaziva, Panama, and the South American portion of the route does not connect to the Central American portion.
How do you determine the position of objects in space?
An objects position is determined by three measurements from a known point (origin based), or individual measurements from three known points (triangulation).
How can you tell the speed of an object from its position time graph?
A position time graph is usually 2-dimensional and measures an object's position as a distance from some fixed point (the origin) in one direction only. As a result, it records changes in position towards or away from this origin but there is no information on movement in a circular path around the origin. The speed in the radial direction - that is, in the direction towards or away from the origin - is given by the slope of the line. The speed in a tangential direction cannot be deduced.
Is it true The knee is distal to the foot?
The knee is proximal to the foot. The knee is also superior to the foot in anatomical position.
What is the antonym of destination?
Origin? As in point of origin vs point of destiantion?
What is the point of origin in math?
the point of origin is the center of a cartegian graph. The (x,y) of the point of origin is always (0,0).
