Arthrology
Functions of joints
They secure our bones together and allow our skeleton to be flexible so that body movement can occur.
Structural classification is based on the ______
presence of Connective tissue fiber, Cartillage, or a joint cavity between the articular bone
What are four type of Structural Classifications?
Bony
Fibrous,
Cartilaginous,
& Synovial joints
Functional classification of joints:
Synostosis,
Synarthroses,
Amphiathrosis,
& Diarthrosis.
Bony Joint also known as _____
Synostosis
Describe Bony joint, or synostosis
– an immovable joint formed when the gap between two bones ossify, and they become in effect, a single bone

– occurs where bones are joined together by fibrous connective tissue. And no joint cavity is present.
The amount of movement allowed depends on the length of the fibers uniting the bones.
Most fibrous Joints are immovable, only a few are slightly movable
What are 3 kinds of fibrous joints?
Sutures

Syndesmoses
sutures is the
immovable or slightly movable fibrous joints that closely bind the bones of the skull to each other
Sutures can be classified as:
-serrate
-lap (squamous)
-plane
_____ immovable or slightly movable fibrous joints that closely bind the bones of the skull to each other

serrate is the
interlocking wavy lines
Ex: coronal, sagittal and lambdoid sutures
lap (squamous) is where
where two bones have overlapping beveled edges
Ex: temporal and parietal bones
plane (butt)is the
two bones have straight, non overlapping edges
