What type of joint is immovable? |
Fibrous -held together by dense connective tissue -eg: sutures, interosseus membrane |
|
What type of joint is slightly movable? |
Cartilagenous -bones joined by hyaline cartilage / disks of firbrocartillage -eg: epiphyseal plate, intervertebral disc, symphysis pubis |
|
What type of joint is freely movable? |
Synovial -separated by joint cavity filled with synovial fluid -articulating ends covered with hyaline cartilage -6 types (ball & socket, hinge, saddle, ellipsoid, pivot, gliding) |

articular cartilage |
|
name the blue structures |
bursae -found in some prominent synovial joints -cushion joint with synovial fluid -facilitate tendon movement |
|
Name structure 6 |
