ABOUT THE FLASHCARDS
Flashcards for Bones, Joints, and Actions of the Human
Body, ed. 2, is designed as a companion to the textbook,
Kinesiology: The Skeletal System and Muscle Function, ed. 2.
• These cards provide a fun way to study and learn
the bones, joints, joint actions, and kinesiology
concepts of the human body!
• There are 256 full-color cards divided into four
sections.
• Section I includes 112 cards that display all the
bones and bony landmarks of the body. One side
of the card shows a photograph of the bone with
numbered lead lines, allowing you to quiz your-
self. The numeric key is provided on the back of
the card.
• Section II includes 48 cards that have full-color
line drawings of the joints of the body.
Numbered lead lines are again provided, allow-
ing you to quiz yourself on the ligaments and
other illustrated structures of the joint. Again,
the key to the numbers is provided on the back
of the card.
• Section III includes 58 cards that depict the joint
motions of the body. The front of the card
includes a photograph with the bones involved
in the joint action superimposed on the photo-
graph. The other side of the card contains essen-
tial information about the joint action that is
pictured.
iv
• Section IV includes 38 cards. Each card contains
an illustration and text covering a specific kine-
siologic concept of the human body. Review
questions are located at the end of each card,
allowing you to test your knowledge and under-
standing of the concept presented.
• All flashcards contain references to sections and
pages from the textbook in the side margins, allow-
ing quick and easy reference to Kinesiology: The
Skeletal System and Muscle Function, ed. 2.
• Headings at the top of each card quickly place the
card into its respective section of flashcards.
Studying Kinesiology
Kinesiology literally means the study of motion. Because
motion in the body is primarily created by muscles
pulling on bones and creating motion of those bones at
joints, kinesiology is usually thought of as the study of
the musculoskeletal system. Given that the muscular
system is controlled and coordinated by the nervous
system, a more thorough description of kinesiology
would be to say that it is the study of the anatomy and
physiology of the neuromusculoskeletal system.
Encompassing so many systems, the study of kinesio-
logy involves a great deal of information. Therefore,
when beginning the study of kinesiology, it is crucial
that the extensive body of information is approached in
a logical and step-wise fashion. Therefore, it is essential
that fundamental information is learned first. Once this
base is created, advanced information that builds upon
the base can be approached and learned more easily.
v
The information located in the textbook, Kinesiology:
The Skeletal System and Muscle Function, ed. 2, has been
ordered in a way that will facilitate this step-by-step
learning of kinesiology. When using these flashcards as
a companion to the textbook, I recommend that you
access the cards in the same order as the information is
presented in the book. If you are using these flashcards
independent of the textbook, then I recommend that
you access them in the following order (note: this order
is not rigidly required, but it will facilitate learning the
information on the cards):
1. Begin with cards #219-223 of Section IV (Kinesiology
Concepts) before anything else. Knowing some of the
basic terminology presented in these cards makes it
easier to learn the cards of Section I (Bones and Bony
Landmarks).
2. I then recommend that you begin learning the bones
and bony landmarks of the body by using the cards
of Section I.
3. After learning the bones of the body, return to cards
#224-236 of Section IV (Kinesiology Concepts). This
information will then make it easier to learn the
structural components of joints covered in the cards
of Section II and the joint actions of the body
covered in the cards of Section III.
4. Now you may begin to use the cards of Sections II
and III (Joints and Joint Actions).
5. Once the cards have been covered, the rest of the
cards of Section IV (Kinesiology Concepts) can be
learned.

Of course, if you already versed in this material and are
using these flashcards for review, please access them in
any order that you please.
