Ball-and-socket (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--ball-and-socket Structural features: smooth, hemispherical head fits within a cup-like socket. all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane, and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional classification: diarthosis--movement in all planes Location example: hip, shoulder
|
|
Hinge (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--hinge Structural features: one bone with concave surface fits into convex depression in other bone. all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane, and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional classification: diarthosis--flexion and extension Location examples: elbow, knee, interphalangeal |
|
Condylar (ellipsoid) (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--condylar/ellipsoid Structural features: oval convex bone fits into a complementary depression. all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane, and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional classification: diarthosis--flexion, extension, abduction, adduction Location examples: radiocarpal, metacarpophalangeal |
|
Pivot (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--pivot Structural features: one bone has a projection that is held in place by a ring-like ligament. all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane, and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional classification: diarthrosis--rotation Location examples: radioulnar at elbow, dens at atlas |
|
Saddle (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--saddle Structural features: both bones are shaped like a saddle. all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane, and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional classification: diarthosis--variety of movements, mainly in two planes Location examples: base of thumb with trapezium |
|
Plane (gliding) (name structural classification, structural features, functional classification, location examples) |
Structural classification: synovial--plane (gliding) Structural features: all synovial joints contain articular cartilage, a joint capsule (fibrous capsule and synovial membrane), and a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid Functional clavity |
|
Name & define the 3 types of fibrous joints |
Suture, gomphosis, syndesmosis. Bones are joined by penetrating collagen fibers |
|
Name the 2 types of cartilaginous joints |
synchondrosis, symphysis |
|
Name the 6 types of synovial joints |
ball-and-socket, hinge, condylar (ellipsoid), pivot, saddle, plane (gliding) |
|
Define arthrology |
study of joint structure, function, dysfunction |
|
Define kinesiology |
Study of musculoskeletal movement |
|
Name & define the 3 kinds of sutures |
Serrate suture: interlocking wavy lines (coronal, sagittal, lambdoid) Lap suture: overlocking beveled edges (squamous) Plane suture: straight (palatine) |
|
Define and give an example of a syndesmoses |
Amphiarthrotic fibrous joint in which 2 bones are joined by longer collagen fibers than suture or gomphosis. E.g, interosseous membrane between radius and ulna |
|
Define and give an example of bony joints |
Also called synostosis. Either a fibrous or cartilaginous joint undergoes ossification, effectively turning two bones into one. E.g, mandible and frontal bones. |
|
Explain how an articular disc relates to a synovial joint |
In some synovial joints, fibrocartilage grows inward from the joint capsule. The articular disc forms a pads between bones that crosses the entire joint capsule. E.g., temporomandibular, distal radioulnar, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular |
|
Explain how a meniscus relates to a synovial joint |
In the knee, 2 fibrocartilages extend inward from the left and right but do not entirely cross the joint capsule |
|
Define tendon |
Strip or sheet of tough collagenous tissue that connects muscle to bone |
|
Define bursa |
Fibrous sac filled with synovial fluid between muscles, between bone and tendon, or between muscle and skin |
|
Define tendon sheath |
Elongated cylindrical bursae wrapped around tendon (hands and feet) |
|
Name the two kinds of mutually exclusive mechanical advantage conferred by a level |
1) More force (crow bar: effort > resistance) 2) More speed or distance (rowing: effort < resistance)
MA = effort length / resistance length |
|
Give an example of the 3 kinds of levers + mneumonic |
First class: see-saw (atlanto-occipital joint) Second class: wheelbarrow (resistance is between fulcrum and effort. e.g., seated and lifting knee) Third class: oar (effort is between resistance and fulcrum. Most joints of the body)
"Levers don't give you a FRE lunch" (fulcrum in the middle, resistance in the middle, effort in the middle) |
|
Explain the difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis |
Osteoarthritis: most common. results from normal wear and tear. Accompanied by crepitus and bone spurs. Rheumatoid arthritis: autoimmune. Ankylosis: solidly fused, immobile joint. |
|
Other names for the shoulder & what articulates with what |
Glenohumeral joint, humeroscapular joint. Head of humerus articulates with glenoid cavity of scapula |

fibrocartilage ring that deepens into glenoid cavity of humeroscapular joint |
|
