a point of contact between two bones, between bone and carilage, or between bone and teeth is called a:
|
articulation or joint
|
|
when we say one bone articulates with another bone we mean:
|
the bone forms a joint
|
|
joints are classified structurally based on their
|
anatomical characteristics
|
|
joints are classified functionally basd on their
|
type of movement they permit
|
|
the structural classification of joints is based on two criteria:
|
1)the presence of absence of a space between the articulating bones
2)the type of connective tissue that binds the bones together |
|
the presense or absense of a space between the articulating bones is called a
|
synovial cavity
|
|
joint classifications
there is no synovial cavity, and the bones are held together by dense irregular connective tissue that is rich in collagen fibers |
fibrous joints
|
|
joint classifications
there is no synovial cavity and the bones are held together by cartilage |
cartilaginous joints
|
|
joint classifications
the bones forming the joint have a synovial cavity and are united by the dense ireegular connective tissue of an articular capsule, and often by accessory ligaments. |
synovial joints
|
|
joint classifications
an immovable joint. |
synarthrosis
|
|
joint classifications
a slightly movable joint |

|
|
joint classifications
a freely moveable joint. |

|
|
joint classifications
are all snymovial joints. they have a variety of shapes and permit several different types of movements |

synovial joints
unique characteristic of a synovial joint is the presense of a |
space called a synovial (joint) cavity
|
|

|
synovial joints
the bones are covered by a layer of hyaline cartilage called |
articular cartilage
|
|
reduces friction between bones in the joint during movement and helps to absorb shock
