J
Suture, Syndesmosis, and Gomphosis are examples of what kind of structural joint?
What is Fibrous Joints?
What kind of joint is connected by either Hyaline Cartilage or Fibrocartilage
What is Cartilaginous Joints?
What kind of accessory ligament is a collateral ligament of the knee (MCL & LCL)
What is Extracapsular?
What type of synovial joint permits Gliding Movements/ EX: Intercarpals, Intertarsals
What is Plane Joints?
What type of synovial joint permits Flexion-Extension and Abduction-adduction/ Projection of one joint fits into the depression of another bone/ EX: Radiocarpal (wrist)
Permits slight movement (amphiarthrotic)/ contains interosseous membrane which is sheet of CT that binds adjacent long bones together/ ex: Tibia/Fibula and Radius/Ulna.
What is Syndesmosis?
What is Synchondrosis?
Fibrocartilaginous lip that extends from the edge of the joint socket of the shoulder and hip/ Helps deepen the socket and increase the surface area
What is the Labrum?
What type of synovial joint permits only rotation/ Surface of one bone articulates with a ring formed partly by another bone and partly by a ligament/ EX: Atalanto-axial (axis & atlas)
What is Pivot Joints?
Rim of Fibrocartilage that deepens the glenoid cavity
What is Glenoid Cavity?
I'm only found between the bones of the skull (Synarthrotic)
What is Sutures?
Ends of bones covered in Hyaline Cartilage is called..
What is Articular Cartilage?
What kind of accessory ligament is the Cruciate ligaments of the knee (ACL & PCL)
What type of synovial joint permits only Flexion and Extension/ EX: Knee, Elbow
What is Hinge Joints?
What type of synovial joint permits Flexion-Extension and Abduction-Adduction/ Articular surface of one bone is saddle-shaped and the articular surface of the other bone fits into that saddle/ EX: Metacarpal of the thumb
What is Saddle Joint
Fibrous joints lack a...
What is Synovial Cavity?
What encloses the synovial cavity and has 2 layers
Outer: Fibrous Membrane
Inner: Synovial Membrane
What is Articular Capsule?
Sac-like structures contain fluid similar to synovial fluid/ Found between tendons, ligaments, and bones/ Function is to cushion movement of the body parts
What is Bursae?
Gliding, Angular movement, Rotation, and Special movements are all types of movement at what joint
What is Synovial Joints?
Group of 4 muscles that provide the most strength to the shoulder joint
What is the Rotator Cuff?
Joint in which a cone-shaped peg fits into a socket/ Only found at the articulate sites of the teeth with the sockets of mandible and maxillae. (Synarthrotic)
What is Gomphosis?
What kind of cartilaginous joint is held together with Fibrocartilage/ EX: Pubic Symphysis, Intervertebral discs, Manubrium and body of sternum (Amphiarthrotic)
What is Symphysis?
Within the Synovial Joint what reduces friction by lubricating the joint, absorbing shock, supplying oxygen and nutrients to the cartilage, and removes carbon dioxide and metabolic wastes from the cartilage
What is Synovial Fluid?
Similar to bursae, but wrap around some tendons/ Many in fingers and toes/ Function to reduce friction at joints
What is Tendon Sheaths?
What type of synovial joint permits Flexion-Extension and Abduction-Adduction and Rotation/ Ball like surface of one bone fits into the cuplike depression of another bone/ EX: Shoulder and Hip
What is a Ball-and-Socket Joint?
