If the radius fractures, the ulna usually fractures too. Anatomy The fore limb has two bones between the wrist or carpus and the elbow joint: the radius and ulna bones. The radius is the main weight-supporting bone; the ulna bone supports very little weight. Small breed dogs have a poor blood supply to the lower fourth of the radius bone, therefore it is more susceptible to being fractured; also healing of the fracture can take longer than other bones in the body. Large breed dogs have a much better blood supply to this region, therefore a very substantial force needs to be applied to the bone before a fracture develops. If the radius fractures, the ulna usually fractures too. Anatomy & Physiology TM
Types of Muscles Muscles are contractile organs responsible for the voluntary and involuntary movements of animals. Skeletal muscle –allows for all voluntary movement, appears to be striated when looked at under a microscope. Cardiac muscle – controls the involuntary beating of the heart, appears striated under a microscope. Smooth muscle – responsible for all other involuntary movement, such as breathing, digestion, peristalsis, blinking, etc. Anatomy & Physiology TM
MOVEMENT Ambulation – moving from one place to another Abduction – moving away from the median plane Adduction – moving towards the median plane Flexion – moving the distal part of the limb towards the body Extension – moving the distal part of the limb away from the body Anatomy & Physiology TM
ALL muscles can do is CONTRACT or RELAX, so they generally Muscle Function ALL muscles can do is CONTRACT or RELAX, so they generally work in pairs. For any particular action, they muscles involved can be classified as AGONIST – prime mover of a joint ANTAGONIST – opposes movement of the agonist EX; Arm – AGONIST is the bicep and ANTAGONIST is tricep Elbow - AGONIST is the tricep and ANTAGONIST is bicep Anatomy & Physiology TM
