What is the relationship between hand muscle and tendon anatomy, and how does it impact hand function and movement?
The hand muscles and tendons work together to control hand movement. Muscles provide the force needed to move the hand, while tendons connect the muscles to the bones, allowing the muscles to pull on the bones and create movement. The anatomy of the hand muscles and tendons determines the range of motion and strength of the hand. If the muscles or tendons are injured or not functioning properly, it can affect hand function and movement, leading to difficulties with tasks like gripping, grasping, and manipulating objects.
What does the tendon do between the bone joints?
the small tendons hold the joints together.
What are the small fluid filled sac between tendons and bones?
Bursa
Do tendons have striation?
Yes, tendons do have a striated appearance, which is due to their composition of aligned collagen fibers. This striation helps provide strength and flexibility to the tendons, allowing them to effectively transmit forces between muscles and bones.
What is muscle attached to?
Muscle attaches to tendons which then attach to bone. "attachments" occur as smooth transitions from muscle to tendon, so that there is no precise discontinuity between what is called muscle and what is called the tendon.
