Joints

Front 1

Lack a synovial Cavity
Articulating bones are held together with by dense irregular connective tissue
Little or no movement

Back 1

Fibrous Joints

Front 2

Fibrous joint of the skull

Back 2

Sutures

Front 3

Dense irregulars connective tissue.
Connect the tibia and fibula at the distal end

Back 3

Syndesmosis

Front 4

Substantial sheet of dense irregular connective tissue that binds neighboring long bones. slight movement

Back 4

interosseous membrane

Front 5

No synovial cavity. Articulating bones are tightly connected by hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage

Back 5

Cartilaginous Joint

Front 6

epiphyseal plate that connects the epiphysis and diaphysis of a growing bone.

Back 6

Synchondrosis

Front 7

A cartilaginous joint in which the ends of the articulating bones are covered with hyaline cartilage. Pubic symphysis

Back 7

Symphyses

Front 8

Presence of a synovial cavity between articulating bones. Freely moveable. Joints are covered with articular cartilage.

Back 8

Synovial Joints

Front 9

smooth, slippery surface but does not bind them together. It reduces friction between bones in the joint and absorbs shock.

Back 9

Articular Cartilage

Front 10

Surrounds a synovial joint, encloses they synovial cavity, and unites articulating bones.

Back 10

Articular Capsule

Front 11

fibrous membranes arranged as parallel bundles of dense regular connective tissue that are adapted for resisting strains. Hold bones close together in synovial joint.

Back 11

Ligaments

Front 12

Synovial membrane secretes viscous, fluid. Lubricates joint, absorbs shock, supplies oxygen

Back 12

Synovial Fluid

Front 13

Crescent shaped pads of fibrocartilage that lie between the articular surfaces of the bones and are attached to the fibrous capsule.

Back 13

Articular discs or Menisci

Front 14

Lip that extends from the edge of the joint socket. Deepens that socket in ball and socket joints like the hip and shoulder.

Back 14

Labrum

Front 15

Sac like structures strategically located to alleviate friciton in some joints.

Back 15

Bursae

Front 16

Classification of joints

Back 16

Functional (movement) and Structural (anatomical)

Front 17

Lack synovial fluid and cartilage

Back 17

Fibrous Joint

Front 18

Contain a bar of cartilage

Back 18

Cartilaginous joint

Front 19

Ligaments hold bones together

Back 19

Synovial Joints

Front 20

nerve and blood supply from several different arteries before merging around a joint and penetrating the articular cavity.

Back 20

Arterial branches

Front 21

Respond to the degree of movement and stretch, send information from the joint to the spinal cord about pain.

Back 21

Nerve endings

Front 22

Permits back and forth and side to side movement

Back 22

Planar Joint

Front 23

Opening and closing action. Humerus and Ulna joint,

Back 23

Hinge Joint

Front 24

The rounded surface of one bone articulates with a ring structure with another bone and ligament. Head of radius and radial notch of ulna.

Back 24

Pivot Joint

Front 25

convex oval shaped projection of one bone fits into the oval shaped depression another bone. Top carpal bones

Back 25

condyloid Joint

Front 26

the articular surface of one bone is saddle shaped.

Back 26

Saddle Joint

Front 27

The ball surface of one bone fits into the cup like depression of another bone. Permits movement around three axes.

Back 27

Ball and Socket Joint

Front 28

Range of Motion
