Joints formed where...
|
two or more bones come together
|
|
3 Classification of joints
|
Fibrous Joint
Cartilaginous joint Synovial Joint |
|
Synovial Joint
|
Freely Moveable Joint
Bones covered by articular cartilage joint capsule usually reinforced by ligaments most numerous joint |
|
3 types of synovial joints
|
Uniaxial joint
Biaxial Joint Multiaxial Joint |
|
Uniaxial joint
|
Movement in only one plane of space
Plane / Gliding Joints- Articular surfaces are flat (Sternoclavicular) Pivot Joints- one bone rotates around another (alantoaxial, radioulnar) Hinge Joints- flexion and extension (knee, elbow) |
|
Biaxial Joint
|
Movement in two planes of space
Condyloid- "Knuckle joints" permit flexion and extension, abduction, and adduction (metapharyngeal) Ellipsoid- oval ellipsoid surface fits into oval concavity to permit flexion extension and abduction and adduction ( radiocarpal joint/ wrist) |
|
Multiaxial Joint
|
permit movement in all 3 planes of space
Saddle Joints- reciprocal bones resemble a horse back Ball and Socket joints- Shoulder and hip |
|
Stability of Joints conferred by these 3 factors
|
Ligaments
Muscle Tone Congruence of Articular Surfaces- how tightly the bones fit together |
|
Bursae
|
blind synovial pouches that intervene between bone and skin and between bone and bone to facillate movement at joints
