Arthology

science of joint structure, function

kinesiology

study of musculoskeletal movement

4 major joint categories

bony, fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial

ROM: synathrosis

immovable

ROM: Amphiarthrosis

slightly movable

ROM: diarthrosis

freely movable

synostosis joint

bony joint; 2 bones ossify & become a single bone with a fibrous or cartilaginous joint


ex. infant frontal & mandibular bones

synarthrosis joint

fibrous joint; bones are bound by collagen fibers (tendons) from one side and penetrate another

3 kinds of synathrosis joints

sutures, gomphoses & syndesmoses

suture definition

immovable or slightly movable fibrous joint that bind bones

serrate suture

interlocking wavy lines


ex. coronal suture

lap (squamous) suture

overlapping edges


ex. temporal & parietal bones

plane (butt) suture

straight, non-overlapping edges


ex. intermaxillary suture

gomphosis

Fibrous joint; attachment of tooth to socket by a collagen fiber, periodontal ligament

syndesmosis joint

fibrous joint which 2 bones are bound by long collagenous fivers called interosseous membrane for mobility


ex. between tibia and fibula

syphysis joint

bones are seperated by a pad of fibrocartilage


ex. interpubic disc of pubic symphysis

syndesmosis

slightly movable joint; ligaments connect 2 bones and limit motion ex. radius and ulna

Amphiarthrosis joint

cartilaginous joint; 2 bones are linked by cartilage

synchondroses joint

bones are bound by hyaline cartilage


ex. joint in epiphyseal plate, first rib to sternum

diarthrosis

synovial joint; 2 bones are separated by a joint cavity for mobility

articular cartilage

avascular layer of hyaline cartilage that covers bone surfaces

joint (articular cavity)

seperates articular surfaces

synovial fluid

nourishes articular cartilage and removes waste; reduces friction

joint capsule

connective tissue that encloses cavity and retains the fluid made of outer fibrous capsule & inner, cellular synovial membrane

outer fibrous capsule

continuous with periosteum of adjoining bones

inner synovial membrane

composed of fibroblast cells that secrete synovial fluid & macrophages to remove debris

articular disc

forms a pad between articulating bones that cross the entire joint capsule

meniscus

in knee; 2 cartilages extend inward from the left and right but dont cross joint, cups to keep bones in place

tendon

sheet of collagenous conn. tissue that attches muscle to bone to stabilize a joint

ligament

collagenous conn. tissue that attaches bone to bone

bursa

fibrous sac filled with synovial fluid, between muscles to cushion, ease friction and modifies tendon pull

tendon sheaths

elongated cylindrical bursae wrapped around a tendon in hand and foot

without exercise, cartilage...

deteriorates from lack of nutriotion and waste removal

rotation occurse when an...

effort applied overcomes resistance

weight advantage

exort more force than force applied to lever


ex. moving object with crowbar

Speed advantage

move resisting object faster/farther than effort arm is moved


ex. rowing a boat

MA > 1.0

more force, less speed

MA<1.0

more speed, less force

multiaxial joint

3 degrees of freedom or axes of rotation

ball and socket joint

multiaxial joint, cuplike socket; shoulder & hip joint

condylar (ellipsoid) joint

biaxial joint; oval convex surface where bones fit in complementary depressions


ex. radiocarpal joint of wrist

saddle joint

biaxial joint; both bones have an articular surface that is saddle shaped, concave & convex


ex. sternoclavicular joint

plane (glididng joint)

biaxial joint; flat articular surfaces that bones slide over each other with limited movement


ex. carpal bones of wrist

hinge joint

monoaxial; one bone with convex surface fits into a concave depression on other bone


ex. ulna and humerus

pivot joint

monoaxial; bone held in place by a ringlike ligament


ex. atlantoaxial joint

zero position

position of a joint when a person is in standard anatomical position
