Have no cavities and are somewhat moveable.
cartilaginous joints
growth zones in the arms and legs are known as
cartilaginous joints
synchondrosis and symphysis.
cartilaginous
disks between the vertebrae
cartilaginous joints
cranial sutures and the radioulnar and tibiofibular joints.
fibrous joints
No joint cavity and, in general, do not move.
Fibrous
A blank is an area where two or more bones come together. This contact point creates an important relationship with respect to
Joint
There are three kinds of joints:
fibrous joints (non-moveable), cartilaginous joints (somewhat moveable), and synovial joints (Add moveable)
Have joint cavities that are kept lubricated by synovial fluid.
synovial joints
intercarpal joint
Synovial joints
Blank joints: plane, uniaxial, biaxial, and multiaxial.
Synovial joints
Blank joints are joints that glide where the flat ends of Examples of blank joints are the intercarpal and intertarsal joints.
Plane joints
Have joint cavities that are kept lubricated by synovial fluid.
synovial joints
Joints that glide where the flat ends of bones connect.
Plane joints
Examples of blank joints are the intercarpal and intertarsal joints.
Plane
blank joints allow movement around one axis only. Examples of blank joints are the blank joint and the interphalangeal joint.
Uniaxial
Uniaxial
Elbow
Blank joints allow movement around two axes. Examples of blank joints are the knee joint, the temporomandibular (jaw) joint, and the radiocarpal (wrist) joint
Biaxial
The blank joints allow movement around three axes. Examples of multiaxial joints are the ball and socket joint found in the hip and shoulder, as well as the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb between the trapezium (base of thumb) and the first metacarpal. Ball-and-socket joints are the most freely moveable joints in the body.
Multiaxial
A multiaxial joint has a joint cavity kept lubricated by _____
Your Answer:synovial
The two types of fibrous joints are _____.
Your Answer:suture and syndesmosis
Synchondrosis and symphysis are examples of _____ joints.
Your Answer:cartilaginous
The knee joint is an example of a _____ joint.
Your Answer:biaxial
The body compensates for potential weakness in synovial joints with _____ tendons and muscle overlays.
Your Answer: ligaments
Bending to decrease the angle between two bones. Think of this as “flexing” the biceps
Flexion
Unbending to increase the angle between two bones. Think of this as extending, as in reaching your arm as far as you can (virtually eliminating the angle between the humerus and the radius/ulna).
Extension
Moving a body part away from the midline.
abduction
Moving a body part toward the midline. (Think of this as adding a body part back to the body.)
aduction
Moving a body part toward the midline. (Think of this as adding a body part back to the body.)
adduction
Movement of a body part in a circle, which can include all the above joint movements as well.
circumduction
Movement of a body part or parts around its axis (movement from side to side with the lower body stationary).
Rotation
The position of the body when lying face up, including hands being palm up and feet bent upwards.
Supine
The position of the body when lying face down, including the hands being palm down and the feet bent downwards.
Prone
Movement of the foot that brings the top of the foot closer to the leg.
Dorsiflexion
Describe the forces o the Chest wall, the Lung Recoil and P(RS) at %50 TCL?
The chest wall and the lung recoil are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. P(RS) = 0 @ FRC
Movement of a body part in a circle, which can include all the above joint movements as well.
Circumduction
Moving a body part away from the midline
Abduction
Moving a body part toward the midline. (Think of this as adding a body part back to the body.)
Adduction
Bending to decrease the angle between two bones. Think of this as “flexing” the biceps.
Flexion
Unbending to increase the angle between two bones. Think of this as extending, as in reaching your arm as far as you can (virtually eliminating the angle between the humerus and the radius/ulna).
Extension
Place of union or blank between two or more bones of the skeleton, especially one that allows motion of one or more of the bones.
Junction (joint)
Blank is a specialized fibrous connective tissue needed for both the development and growth of bones.
Cartilage (articulation)
A blank is a band of white, fibrous, slightly elastic tissue that binds the ends of bones together. (See side 3)
Ligament
This binding prevents dislocations and stress that can cause fractures.
A ligament made up of many fibrous bands is called a blank.
Collateral ligament
There are two types of ligaments:
those that are susceptible to injury
those that are studied in common injuries and the terms related to them.
Any ligament that strengthens or supports another ligament.
accessory ligament
Means curved or bow-shaped ligaments; they are located in the spine and assist in maintaining the erect position. (Also called ligamenta flava [plural], and ligamentum flavum [singular].)
arcuate ligament
There are several types of balnk ligaments, including fibular, radial, tibial, ulnar, etc. These are basically ligaments that are not direct, but are supporting ligaments.
collateral ligament
Blank means like a raven’s beak and is used to describe an area on the scapula. It is so named for its shape.
coracoid ligament
Blank ligament means shaped like a cross. There are different types of blank ligaments, including anterior, posterior, and lateral. They appear in many places in human anatomy, such as the knees, fingers, and toes.
Cruciate
blank means shaped like a sickle and appears near the sacral tuberosity as well as within the liver.
Falciform ligament
blank is a term used to describe the groin area.
inguinal ligament
blank means between bones and describes several different ligaments.
interosseous
blank simply means lengthwise. It is used to describe any ligament that runs lengthwise.
longitudinal ligament
blank means pertaining to the neck.
nuchal
blank means three cornered and appears in different places throughout the body. The
triquetral
