the correct answer and circle it. 1 The diagram shows three bones from the forelimb of a mammal. 3 The diagram shows a bone from the forelimb (arm). One end of the bone has been replaced with a metal cap.

Which bone is this, and which joint does the metal cap repair?

Between which parts is a ball and socket joint formed? A 1 and 3 B 1 and 5 C 2 and 5 D 3 and 4 2 The diagram shows a cross-section through the arm of a human.

4 The diagram shows a person doing pull ups on a horizontal bar. Which two bones form a ball and socket joint? A humerus and ulna B radius and scapula C radius and ulna D scapula and humerus 5 The diagram shows an arm movement.

What is the name of the bone? A humerus B radius C scapula D ulna

Which joint is working to allow this movement? A a ball and socket joint at the elbow B a ball and socket joint at the shoulder C a hinge joint at the elbow D a hinge joint at the shoulder

PART A: BONES AND JOINTS

1 Fig. 1.1 shows the main bones of a human forelimb.

What happens when muscle X contracts? A The lower arm is extended. B The lower arm is raised. C The upper arm is raised. D The whole arm rotates. 10 The diagram shows a person doing pull ups on a horizontal bar.
(a) Identify bone J. .................................................... [1] (b) By using the letters A to H from Fig. 1.1, write down which parts of the bones meet at each of the following: (i) the shoulder, (ii) the elbow. (c) Damaged joints may be replaced with metal or plastic. Fig. 1.2 shows a replacement joint in a persons arm.

In moving from the lower position X to the upper position Y, which muscles and joint movements occur?
(i) State the type of movement allowed by the joint that has been replaced. (ii) There is a structure that attaches a muscle to point K in Fig. 1.2. Name this structure and explain its importance in the movement of the forearm. [5] [Total: 10]
