Describe the human body and its components


Assignment:

In your first week and throughout this course you will encounter medical terminology. Medical terminology helps professionals to describe the human body and its components, medical conditions, and functions in a science-based manner. Chapter 1 of your text nicely defines kinesiology, which, broadly described, is the study of movement. For this discussion, you must address both Part 1 and Part 2 below in one initial post within the forum.

1: Utilize the Medical Terminology video and the U.S. National Library of Medicine Medical Dictionary to address component A relating to Osteology, Arthrology, Myology, and Neurology.

Students whose last names begin with A through M will use their own words to summarize the terms Osteology and Arthrology. List these terms in the subject line of your post.

Students whose last names begin with N through Z will use their own words to summarize the terms Myology and Neurology. List these terms in the subject line of your post.

2: After studying chapters 21 (Posture) and 22 (Gait) select one common postural deviation and one atypical gait. Next, slip into the shoes of a healthcare practitioner, and address the points below as though you are speaking with your patient who is experiencing the selected deviations. Choose a name for your patient and address him or her directly, using applicable medical terminology. Discuss the following:

Q1 Analyze the importance of having good posture.

Q2 Describe the previously selected postural deviation and name one possible cause for this deviation.

Q3 Discuss the previously selected atypical gait and a general cause for this abnormality.
