A&p Chapter 9 Joints

Front 1

Structural classifications of joints:

Back 1

Fibrous: bones held together by dense collagen fibers
Cartilaginous: bones held together by cartilage
Synovial: bones held together by ligaments

Front 2

In this type of joint the bones are held together by a fibrous connective tissue.

Back 2

Fibrous

Front 3

`This type of joint lacks a synovial cavity

Back 3

Fibrous & Cartilaginous

Front 4

Functional Joint classifications and descriptions:

Back 4

Synarthrosis-immovable joint
Amphiarthrosis-slightly moveable joint
Diarthrosis-freely moveable joint

Front 5

This type of joint is freely movable:

Back 5

Diarthrosis

Front 6

This is a fibrous joint composed of a thin layer of dense fibrous connective tissue between the bones:

Back 6

Suture

Front 7

These cartilaginous articulations are found between the bodies of all but the 1st two vertebrae:

Back 7

Intervetbral discs, functionally classified as slightly moveable joints(amphiarthrosis)

Front 8

How is a suture joint classified functionally?

Back 8

synarthrosis

Front 9

In this type of fibrous joint, the connective tissue is arranged either as a bundle or as a sheet between the bones.

Back 9

syndesmoses

Front 10

Another term for this articulation, found only between a tooth and jawbone, is dentoalveolar joint.

Back 10

symphyses

Front 11

Which of these can be classified as a synarthrosis joint?

Back 11

All of the following:
Gomphosis
Synchondrosis
Suture

Front 12

The epiphyseal plate, found only at the ends of growing bones, is an example of this type of joint.

Back 12

Synchondrosis

Front 13

The joint between the first rib and the manubrium of the sternum is classified as:

Back 13

All of these:
Synchondrosis
Synarthhrosis
Cartilaginous

Front 14

Where do articulations referred to as "symphyses" occur?

Back 14

Where the two pubic bones of the hips meet and between the manubrium & the body of the sternum

Front 15

Synovial joints do NOT:

Back 15

include elastic cartilage

Front 16

Which is made from dense regular connective tissue?
LIgaments
Fibrous capsule of articular cartilage
articular fat pads
synovial membrane
synovial fluid

Back 16

Synovial membrane

Front 17

Which tissue covers the surface of every bone at a synovial joint?

Back 17

Articular(hyaline) cartilage

Front 18

***One of the most common complaints of older adults is joint pain, which frequently results from a "wear-and-tear" inflammation at the joint(arthritis), called osteoarthritis. Describe what tissue on the surface of bones at a synovial joint erode away in wear and tear arthritis.

Back 18

***Need to look this up

Front 19

***Briefly describe what a person being "double-jointed: means:

Back 19

***hyperflex?? look this up

Front 20

Describe the functions of synovial fluid:

Back 20

provides lubrication
helps joints have more function and movement
reduces friction

Front 21

***Briefly describe what is happening when a person "cracks their knuckles".

Back 21

***releasing of synovial fluid-look this up

Front 22

Every synovial joint is encased in a dense connective tissue called a:

Back 22

Capsule

Front 23

Example of fibular and tibial collateral ligaments of the knee joint include:

Back 23

Extracapsular ligaments

Front 24

Another term for menisci are:

Back 24

Articular discs

Front 25

Menisci(articular discs):

Back 25

Maintain the stability of a joint AND
Direct flow of the synovial fluid within the joint

Front 26

Which "crossing ligaments" are found in the knee joint?

Back 26

The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments

Front 27

This is used to reduce friction in joints or where soft tissues slide over bones.

Back 27

Bursae AND Synovial fluid

Front 28

Which of the following is not used to reduce friction at joints or where soft tissues slide over bones?

Back 28

All of these:
Tendon sheaths
Synovial fluid
Bursae

Front 29

This type of motion results from relatively flat bone surfaces moving back and forth and from side to side w/respect to one another:

Back 29

Gliding

Front 30

This is a type of movement where there is a decrease in the angle between articulation bones.

Back 30

Flexion

Front 31

Bending the trunk forward at the intervertebral discs is an example of what type of angular movement?

Back 31

Flexion

Front 32

Flexion and extension usually occur along which plane?

Back 32

Sagittal

Front 33

Examples of this type of movement include moving the humerus laterally at the shoulder joint.

Back 33

Abduction

Front 34

This type of movement is a continuous sequence of flexion, abduction, extension, and adduction.

Back 34

Circumduction

Front 35

Which is not considered a special movement?

Back 35

All of these:
Depression
Protraction
Elevation
Supination

Front 36

Which of the following bones can NOT be elevated or depressed?

Back 36

Maxilla

Front 37

What type of movement can be seen in your clavicles at your acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular joints by crossing your arms?

Back 37

Protraction

Front 38

This special movement occurs when you stand on your hehels.

Back 38

Dorsiflexion
