|
|
|
Fibrous Joints
|
Contains connective tissue fiber
|
|
|
|
Sutures
|
Irregular edges of bones interlock and joined by short connective tissue fibers
|
Joints of skull bone
|
|
|
Cartilaginous Joints
|
Contains cartilage
|
|
|
|
2 types of cartilaginous joints:
|
-Synchondrosis
-Symphysis |
|
|
|
Synchondrosis
|

|
Epiphyseal plates in the long bones of growing children
|
|
|
Symphysis
|
Bones are connected by pads of fibrocartilage
|
Intervertebral joints
|
|
|
Synovial Joints
|
Contains a joint cavity between bones
|
Freely moving
|
|
|
Knee joint
|
The largest and most complex joint in the body
|
|
|
|
8 types of need joints are?
|
•Quadricep tendon
•Patellar ligament •Lateral meniscus •Medial meniscus •Anterior cruciate ligament •Posterior cruciate ligament •Fibular collateral ligament •Tibial collateral ligament |
|
|
|
Quadricep Tendon
|
Connects the upper thigh to the patellar
|
|
|
|
Patellar Ligament
|
Inferior to the patellar
|
|
|
|
Lateral meniscus
|
Away on the lateral side
|
|
|
|
Medial meniscus
|
Towards or the middle side
|
|
|
|
Anterior cruciate ligament
|
Front of the knee
|
Helps prevent over flexion and hyperextension
|
|
|
Posterior cruciate ligament
|
Back of the knee
|
Helps prevent over flexion and hyperextension
|
|
|
Fibular collateral ligament
|
Lateral side
|
Keeps the bones from rotation, stables them from each motion
|
|
|
Tibial collateral ligament
|
Medial side
|
Keeps the bone from rotation, stables them from each motion
|
|
|
Movements of synovial joints:
|
•Flexion
•Extension •Abduction •Adduction •Rotation •Circumduction •Pronation •Supination •Inversion •Eversion •Dorsiflexion •Plantar Flexion |
