effect of GH on bone
stimulates formation of somatomedin in liver - which stimulates growth of cartilage in the epiphyseal plate
effect of thyroid hormone on bone
stimulates bone growth
effect of calcitonin on bone growth
inhibits osteoclast activity - promotes bone growth
what are the three structural classifications of joints
fibrous
cartilaginous
synovial
fibrous joint
structural classification of joint
-bones held together by dense regular (fibrous) CT
-immovable
-three types (gomphoses, sutures, syndesmoses)
cartilaginous joint
structural classificatio of a joint
-where bones are joined by cartilage
synovial joint
structural classification of a joint
- where the joint is filled with fluid, bones are enclosed in a capsule, and are joined by ligaments
-freely movemable
-diarthroses
-joint cavity
what are the three functional classifications of joints
synarthrosis
amphiarthrosis
diarthrosis
gomphosis
type of fibrous joint
- between teeth and jaw bone
suture
type of fibrous joint
- bone to bone - suture
syndesmosis
type of fibrous joint
- bones are joined by ligaments only like fibula/tibia, radius/ulna
-allow for slight movement - amphiarthroses
synarthrosis
immovable
amphiarthrosis
slightly moveable
diarthrosis
freely movable
cartilaginous joints
type of structural classification of a joint
- bones attached by cartilage
-no joint cavity
-can be two types: synchondroses or symphyses
synchondroses
type of cartilaginous joint
-cartilage and bone like where hyaline cartilage wraps around the head of the femur.
symphyses
type of cartilaginous joint
- cartilage joins bones together like pubic symphysis and intervertebral discs
-amphiarthroses
synovial joint accessory structures
bursae, fatpads, tendons
bursae
fibrous, saclike structure that contains synovial fluid and is lined by synovial membrane
found in synovial joints
fatpads
often distributed along the periphery of a synovial joint
act as packing material and provide some protection for the joint
fill the spaces that form when bones move and the joint cavity changes shape
what are the different synovial joints
planar (gliding)
hinge
pivot
condyloid (ellipsoid)
saddle joints
ball and socket
example of pivot joint
atlas on the dens of axis
example of hinge joint
elbow
example of a saddle joint
tarsal and MT
example of a condyloid joint
MT and phalanges
example of a planar joint
tarsal tarsal
gout
arthritis caused by metabolism.. unable to break down uric acid and it builds up in the joints as crystals
osteoarthritis
arthritis caused by wear and tear
rheumatoid arthritis
genetic - born with it, can be very debilitating
