Types of Membranes |
Skin, mucous, serous, synovial |
|
Membranes: composition, where is found, fuction |
Skin (epidermis, dermis) Mucous Membrane (epithelial tissue + loose connective tissue; lining the inside of hollow organs that are exposed with the external envir - digestive, respiratory, urinary, reproductive system) Serous Membranes (simple epithelial tissue and areolar connective tissue; lines pleural cavity, pericaedial carvity and peritoneal cavity. Synovial Membranes (synovial epithelial tissue over loose connect tissue); inner lining of joint capsules of most freely moveable joints; secretes synovial fluid that lubrificates and protects the joint) |
|

|

|
Types of Cartilage |
Hyaline, Elastic, Fibrocartilage |
|
Hyaline |
- Most common - High concentration of thin collagen fibres - Located as articular cartilage at the ends of long bones, gives the ends a smooth glassy surface - Located at the anterior end of ribs to join ribs to sternum - Articular cartilage does not have a perichnodrium |
|
Elastic Cartilage |
- High concentration of elastic fibre, making this cartilage flexible and resilient - Has an outer covering of perichondrium - Found in the ear and epiglottis |
|
Fibrocartilage |
- Chondrocytes and collagen fibres arranged in parallel rows - Found in the intervertebral discs between vertebrae and menisci in the knee - No perichondrium cover - very good at absorbing shock and resisting compression |
|
Functions of the skeletal system |
- Support and Protection - Lever for muscles - Hematopoiesis (production of blood cells) - Storage for Minerals |

|
Gomphosis |

|
Suture |
In the initial development of the bones of the skull, there is a fibrous membrane between the bones. The membrane allows for the growth of the skull. Eventually the fibrous membrane ossifies into the skull bones. |
|
Syndemosis |
Bones are joined by strong fibrous bands of connective tissue. Found between the radius and the ulna and between the tibia and fibula. |
|
Cartilaginous |
Synchondrosis, symphysis |
|
Syncondrosis |
bones are joined by hyaline cartilage. It's not permanent, it ends ossifying and becomes bone. Found at the interior end of of the rib, to attach the rib to the sternum |
|
Symphysis |
bones are joined by fibrocartilage pad. Found between the vertebrae as an intervertebral disc. Also found between the two pubic bones. |
|
Synovial |
The joint is surrounded by a joint capsule. The capsule is thickened to form Intrinsic ligaments Some joints will have Extrinsic ligaments; ligaments joining bone but not part of the capsule The inner lining of the capsule is lined with a synovial membrane; secretes synovial fluid into the joint and acts as a lubricant, shock absorber, and cartilage nourisher. |
