articulations?
what do they do? |
joints; bind parts of the skeletal system, make possible bone growth
|
|
how are joints classified?
|
rom
|
|
immoveable/synarthrotic joints/ fibrous? ex
|
these are in close contact with one another and are held in place by though fibrous connective tissue; sutures of the skull
|
|
slightly moveable or amphiarthrotic joints cartilaginous? ex
|

|
|
arthro?
|
joint
|
|
what are joints?
|
junctions between bones of the skeletal system, where bones meet, a joint or articulation forms
|
|
general structure of a synovial joint pt. 1 and 2
|
the ends of the bones in these joints are covered with articular cartilage. This is resistant to wear and tear and also reduces friction between the bones.; The bones are held together by a tubular joint capsule.
|
|
pt. 3
|
Ligaments re-enforce the joint capsule and help bind the articular bones together.
|
|
pt 4
|
the inner lining of the joint capsule is made of loose connective tissue called the synovial membrane. This covers all surfaces w/i the joint capsule except the articular cartilage. This membrane has 4 funcions:
|
|
The membrane's 4 funcions:
|
It secretes synovial fluid which lubricates and reduces friction. It stores fat THat forms fatty pads w/i the joints. It reabsorbs fluid. It supplies nutrients to the cartilage.
|
|
pt 5
|
some synovial joints have fibrocartialge discs b/w the articular surfaces. These are called menisci. They help cushion the articulating surfaces and also, help distribute weight across the surfaces.
|
|
pt. 6
|
some freely moveable joints also have fluid-filled saxs called bursae. They help tendons glide easily over bony parts. (bursitis)
|
|
what is the fibrocartilage discs between the articular surfaces?
|
menisci
|
