Angular Momentum
|
the way something is moving and the speed something is moving; a moving body part
|
|
Transger of angular momentum

lines the inner surface of the capsule
|
|
Articular cartilage
|
a thin layer of hyaline cartilage covering the articulating surfaces that provides a frictionless surface and helps absorb shock

|
|
long bones
|
found in the limbs and digits, serve primarily as levers for movement
