describe major trad-off involved in joint structure and function
as mobility increases, stability decreases
List/describe 3 classifications of joints on degree of movement
-Synarthroses= immovable
-Amphiarthroses= slight movement
-Pyarthrosis= freely movable
List/ describe the 3 types of joints based on structure
-Fibrous joint= joined by DRCT
-Cartilaginous joint= by cartilage
-Synovial Joint= capsule & space between bones
- Bony Fusion= synostosis
3 types if fibrous joint
-Suture= b/w skull bones
-Gomphosis= b/w teeth and jaw
-Syndesmosis= interosseous membrane (radius/ulna)
2 types of cartilaginous joint. and example
Symphysis- fibrocartilage & Pubic Symphysis,intervertebral discs
-Synchondrosis- hyaline & epiphyseal plates
What major feature seperates synovial joints from fibrous and cartilaginous joints
Joint Cavity
What fills the cavity in the synovial joints
Synovial fluid
3 functions of synovial fluid
lubrication
nourishment
shock absorption
small, fluid-filled pocket that form where tendons/ligaments run against other tissues, reducing friction and acting as shock absorbers
bursae
tubular forms of bursae sacs that surround tendons where they pass across boney surfaces such as in our carpal tunnel ?
tendon sheaths
Motion consists of two opposing surfaces sliding past one another, generally w/ only slight movement allowed
Gliding
Motion: away from the longitudinal axis of the body in the coronal plane
abduction
Motion: toward from the longitudinal axis of the body in the frontal coronal plane
adduction
motion: anterior/posterior (sagittal) planes that reduces the angle b/w articulating elements
flexion
motion: anterior/posterior (sagittal) planes that increases the angle b/w articulating elements
extension
motion: anterior/posterior (sagittal) planes that increases the angle b/w articulating elements by beyond its normal limits
hyperextension
what motion occurs when the vertebral column bends to the side
lateral flexion
motion: sequence of movements where proximal end of appendage remains relatively stationary and distal end makes a circular motion (cone)
circumduction
motion: is pivoting in which the bone turns on its own long axis
rotation
motion: pivoting in which the bone turns on its own long axis that the anterior portion of the limb rotates inward, toward the body
medial rotation
motion: pivoting in which the bone turns on its own long axis that the anterior portion of the limb rotates outward, away the body
lateral rotation
motion that twists the hand,wrist and antebrachium so that the palms move from anteriorly facing position to face posteriorly
pronation
motion that twists the hand,wrist and antebrachium so that the palms move from posteriorly facing position to face anteriorly
supination
motion os the elevation of the distal portion of the foot and toes
dorsiflexion
elevation of the heel
plantar flexion
twisting of the foot that positions the sole laterally
eversion
twisting of the foot that positions the sole medially
inversion
moving of a body part anteriorly in horizontal plane
protraction
moving of a body part posteriorly in horizontal plane
retraction
produces pad to pad contact b/w the thumb and the palm or another digit
opposition
structure moves in a superior direction
elevation
structure moves in a inferior direction
depression
synovial joint has flattened faces that slide across each other producing little movement and example
gliding joint
-intercarpal joints
synovial joint permits angular movement in a single plane like the opening and closing of a door
example
hinge joint
- tibiofemoral
synovial joint permits only rotation
example
pivot joint
-radioulnar (proximal)
synovial joint consists of an oval articular facet in a depression on the opposing bone allowing angular motion in two planes
example
condylar joint
-radiocarpal
synovial joint has complex faces, w/ concave and convex surface on each articular surface allowing extensive angular movement w/o rotation
example
saddle joint
-1st carpometacarpal
synovial joint consists of a round head that rests in a cup-shaped depression, allowing rotation and extensive angular movement
example
ball and socket
- coxal
name of joint b/w the mandibular condyle and fossa
what type?
temporomandibular joint
-hinge/gliding
join adjacent vertebral bodies
intervertebral discs
two layers of invertrebral discs and what are they composed of
annuls fibrosus- fibrocartilage
nucleus pulposus- gelatin core
joint b/w clavicle and manubrium
-type?
sternoclavicular
-saddle or gliding
joint b/w the humerus and the scapula
-type
glenohumeral joint
-ball and socket
3 joints form elbow
-humeroradial
-humeroulnar
-proximal radioulnar
joint produces majority of movement of the wrists
type
radiocarpal
-condyloid
joint b/w the femur and os coxae
-type
coxal joint
-ball and socket
2 joints of knee
type
