Students understand and use the basic terminology of the musculoskeletal system. They are proficient in types of synostosis and are able to analyse their significance to the mobility of joints. Students demonstrate competence in detailed skeletal structure. They are familiar with the anatomy of the shoulder and upper limbs and can explain the function of the upper limbs based on anatomical properties. Students can use foreign terminology of the structures. They understand the meaning of touch in manual work.
