Learning Objectives
The course aims to provide students with basic knowledge of the anatomy of motor control systems . The course is also designed to give the student the knowledge of the fundamental anthropometry.
Program
Biology elements: notes on the structural organization of the eukaryotic cell.
Connective tissue: extracellular matrix organization and cellular components. Bone and cartilaginous tissue
Classification and anatomy of the joints. Types of movement. Amplitude of movements.
Muscle tissue: skeletal muscle tissue. Morphological aspects of the contraction. The concept of motor unit, muscle shortening velocity, strength, flexibility, muscle spindles, muscle tone and its applications.
Theory of muscles, one, two and polyarticular muscles, the role of muscle fixation, external load and internal load. Notes on smooth muscle tissue
Nervous tissue: neuron and glial cells. Electrical and chemical synapses. Membrane potential and action potential. Neurotransmitters. Neuromuscular junction.
Lymphatic system
Nervous system: Spinal cord. Brain (brain stem, cerebellum, midbrain, cerebrum, the main areas of the brain). Major nerve pathways. Anatomical bases of reflexes.
Anthropometry: Anthropometry definition. Anthropometry applied to physical activities and sports. Anthropometric measures in adults and in children, based on age and gender. Reference values. The body composition (fat mass and fat free mass); anthropometric techniques.

- Assessment
Oral examination.
- Disabilità e DSA
Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno registrato la certificazione di disabilità o la certificazione di DSA presso l'Ufficio Inclusione e diritto allo studio, possono chiedere di utilizzare le mappe concettuali (per parole chiave) durante la prova di esame.
A tal fine, è necessario inviare le mappe, due settimane prima dell’appello di esame, alla o al docente del corso, che ne verificherà la coerenza con le indicazioni delle linee guida di ateneo e potrà chiederne la modifica.
