The overall goal of occupational therapy is to help the person with autism improve his or her quality of life at home and in school. The therapist helps introduce, maintain, and improve skills so that people with autism can be as independent as possible. These are some of the skills occupational therapy may foster: Daily living skills, such as toilet training, dressing, brushing teeth, and other grooming skills.
Joints or articulations (connections between bones) can be classified in a number of ways. The primary classifications are structural and functional. Functional classification is based on the type and degree of movement permitted. Types of Synovial Joints.jpg: Image of a skeleton and skematics of the different classes of synovial joints. Three Categories of Functional Joints
Muscle function: 1. contraction for locomotion and skeletal movement. 2. contraction for propulsion. 3. contraction for pressure regulation. Muscle classification: muscle tissue may be classified according to a morphological classification or a functional classification.keletal muscle cells are elongated or tubular. They have multiple nuclei and these nuclei are located on the periphery of the cell. Skeletal muscle is striated. That is, it has an alternating pattern of light and darks bands that will be described later.
