Of the six classifications based on structure and function, these two are noted as the only ones that include a joint cavity and free mobility.
What are synovial and diarthrotic?
100
This type of cartilage covers and protects the epiphysis in long bones and synovial cavities.
What is articular/hyaline cartilage?
100
These connect bone to bone, while these connect bone to muscle.
What are ligaments and tendons, respectfully?
100
After Judy tore her ACL doing parkour with her friends in an abandoned skate park, she required a few months of physical therapy to build up the muscle strength around her knee. This is because, of the determining factors of joint stability, this is the most important.
What is muscle tone?
100
When we swing our foot back to back, moving it toward the midline and then away, without moving the rest of our leg, we are making these types of movements.
What is inversion and eversion?
100
All of the joints mentioned above are in one of these two types of synovial joints.
What is a hinge joint and a ball and socket joint?
100
This type of inflammation is most commonly caused by overuse and affects the tendon sheaths.
What is tendonitis?
200
Fibrous joints, named for the bones being connected to one another by dense fibrous CT, are considered this classification.
What is structural?
200
A joint, or synovial, cavity is defined as this.
A small, fluid filled space.
200
These components provide cushion between the fibrous layer and the synovial membrane/bone.
What are fatty pads?
200
As we know, mo ligaments, mo stability, but it also means less of this.
What is less movement?
200
This is an example of elevation and depression movements that we make in our everyday life. You may be making it now if you are unsure about the answer to this question.
What is a shoulder shrug?
200
Gymbros are often seen making these motions with their elbow.
What is a FLEXion and an extension?
200
These three types of arthritis may be similar, but each cause a different amount and type of inflammation.
What is osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gouty arthritis?
300
These types of joints are functional joints, noted by their immobile nature.
What is synarthrosis?
300
These two tissue layers make up the articular capsule.
What is the synovial membrane (inner) and fibrous CT (outer layer)?
300
TRUE/FALSE: Articular discs, or menisci, are fibrocartilage that separate articular surfaces to improve the fit of the joint, stabilize it, and reduce wear and tear.
What is true?
300
When Jordan dislocated their elbow, there doctor compared the initial procedure to put it back into place as how you would replace a door. Why is this?
What is they both are on a uniaxial plane, on hinges?
300
Little kids are very well known for their comical expressions. A child jutting out their lower lips in defiance or puppy dog eyes is making this type of movement with their mandible.
What is protraction and retraction?
300
Acetabulum. Enough said.
What is the ball and socket joint connected to the hips?
300
We may mostly associate gout with gangrene and overly thick ankle, but the arthritis associated with it is actually caused by these.
What are uric acid crystals in joint and soft tissues?
400
Cartilaginous joints, defined by their bones connected to other bones with cartilage, are functionally slightly moveable, meaning they are also this functional classification.
What is amphiarthrotic?
400
Synovial fluid plays this important role in the joint cavity.
What is lubricates and nourishes the joint cavity?
400
Latrice Royale, during one of her stunning drag performances, landed an aerial split onstage, saving her from that week's elimination. Unfortunately, she experience some inflammation around the fluid-filled sac that reduces friction where tendon, ligaments, muscles, skin, and bones rub together. She contracted this, in this components of her knee joint.
What is bursitis in her bursae?
400
The carpal bones in our wrists are connected by many joints on a nonaxial plane, meaning they make these types of movements.
What is gliding?
400
What is opposition?
400
The Most Interesting Man in the World has this in common with the Knee.
What is it is the most complex joint in the human body?
400
This arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease, characterized by inflamed synovial membranes that thickens into abnormal tissue. Long term affects include the scar tissue forming and connecting bone ends.
What is rheumatoid arthritis?
500
TRUE/FALSE: All joints have cavities.
What is false?
500
Capsular, extracapsular, and intracapsular describe these important structural components of the synovial cavity.
What are reinforcing ligaments?
500
Some tendons need additional help in higher stress areas, and have these elongated bursae wrapped around their tendons to further reduce friction.
What are tendon sheaths?
500
When we turn our forearm, we are unconsciously rotating this type of joint.
What is a pivot joint?
500
Wagging our feet up and down are two types of flexions.
What are dorsiflexion (up) and plantar flexion (down)?
500
We all understand the nature of sacrifices. Where our shoulder is flexible and highly mobile, it sacrifices this in order to achieve that feat.
What is stability?
500
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of cartilage inflammation, where cartilage is broken down faster than it is replaced. It's treatment is similar to many other types of inflammation and includes this.
What are NSAIDs, moderate activity, and capsaicin creams?
600
This is the site where two or more bones meet.
What is a joint or articulation?
600
These components monitor joint position, stretching, and pain associated with the synovial cavity.
What are the nerves?
600
According to Notorious B.I.G., mo money, mo problems. Biggie was most certainly not referring to synovial joints, as where there are more ligaments, there is this.
What is a stronger joint?
600
Our thumb works on a special type of joint that allow abduction and adduction (move towards and away from midline) as well as flexion and extension (decreasing and increasing angle from other bones). Hint: The phalange of our thumb *sits* on the joint in question.
What is a saddle joint?
600
