ESSAY. Write your answer in the space provided or on a separate sheet of paper.

109) When the triceps brachii muscle contracts, what movements does it produce?
Answer: The triceps brachii attaches to the olecranon process. Contraction of the triceps brachii muscle causes the
ulna to rotate around the distal humerus, causing extension of the forearm.

110) A high school student comes to the emergency room complaining of persistent pain and stiffness in her
shoulder joint. In talking with her, you discover that she has been spending many hours trying to improve her
pitching skills for her school's softball team. What is likely causing the pain?
Answer: Her pain is probably caused by injury to the rotator cuff, which can result from repetitive motion,
trauma, or excessive force. The rotator cuff consists of the tendons of four muscles that stabilize the
shoulder joint. If torn, surgical repair may be indicated.

111) Why is the inferior region of the shoulder joint most vulnerable to dislocation?
Answer: The anterior, superior, and posterior surfaces of the shoulder joint are reinforced by ligaments, muscles,
and tendons, but the inferior capsule is poorly reinforced. As a result, a dislocation caused by an impact
or a violent muscle contraction is most likely to occur at this site. Such a dislocation can tear the inferior
capsular wall and the glenoid labrum.
