where are sympheses located?
in the midline of the body
points of joining?
what type of cartilage is found in symphyses
hyaline cartilage covers the articulated bone and a flat disc of fibrocartilage connects the bone
what is synchondrosis
a cartilaginous joint made of hyaline cartilage
growth plate
define fibrous joints
bones held by dense irregulad connective tissue with NO synovial cavity
define cartolagenous joints
bones held together by cartilage with NO synovial cavity
define synovial joints
bones connected with dense irregular CT and accessory ligaments with a synovial cavity
define synarthrosis
an immovable joint
sutures, growth plate, teeth
define amphiarthrosis
slightly movable joint
define diarthrosis
a freely movable joint
ball and socket, hinge, pivot, candyloid, saddle, gliding
which types of joints are synovial joints
diarthrosis
types of fibrous joints
sutures
syndesmoses
gomphoses
which type of joint is always amphiarthrotic
syndesmoses
define sutures
immovable(synarthrotic)
occur only in the skull
when replCed by bone cLled synostosis
define syndesmoses
give more space between bones with CT
slight movement so classified as amphiarthrotic
define ligament
Connective Tissue arranged as a bundle
define interosseous membrane
Connective tissue arranged in a sheet
between leg and arm bones
define gomphoses
dentoalveolar joint
no movement so considered synarthrotic
teeth
types of cartilaginous joints
synchondrosessymphyses
define cartilaginous joints
piece of cartilage holding two bones together with NO synovial cavity
"chon-" means
cartilage
define synovial joints
dense irregular connective tissue capsule that are freely moveable (diarthroses)
define articular capsule
outer fibrous capsule and inner synovial membrane that surrounds a synovial joint enclosing the synovial cavity
define fibrous capsule
dense irregular CT attached to the periosteum (ligaments) that hold bones close together
define synovial membrane
made of aereolar CT and secretes synovial fluid
define synovial fluid
viscous clear fluid, always fills cavity, lubricate joint, supplies nutrients and removes waste
define extracapsular ligaments
lie outside the capsule
define intracapsular ligament
inside the capsule but not the synovial cavity
define articular disc
meniscipads of fibrocartilage in synovial joints allow diff shaped bones to fit together
what do nerves do
supply muscle that move jointgo to articular capsule and associated ligaments

Are synovial joints vascular or avascular

much of the synovial joint is avascular

define bursae
sac like structures that reduce frictionmade of synovial membrane and CT
deFine tendon sheath
tube like bursaewrap around some tendon Subject to prevent abundant friction
define gliding
movement side to side with no angle change
intercarpal joints
types of angular movements
flexionextensionlateral flexionhyper extensionabductionadductioncircumduction
define flexion
decrease angle between articulating bones
define extension
increase in angle of articulating bones
define lateral flexion
to outside
define hyper extension
double jointedness
define abduction
away from the midline
define adduction
toward midline
define circumduction
circular movement
define rotation
bone revolving around its own axis
elevation
up
depression
down
protraction
outward
jutting your chin out
retraction
inward
Eversion
turn inside out
dorsiflexion
decrease angle with dorsal
plantar flexion
decrease angle on plantar side
supination
Palm forward
pronation
Palm backward

planarhingepivotcondyloidsaddleball and socket
planar joints
same as gliding
hinge
help flex and contract muscles
trochlear notch knee elbow etc
pivot
rotation around axis
radius and ulna
condyloid
bi-axial oval shaped projection into oval shaped depression
wrist and ankles
saddle
articular surface of one bone is saddle shaped and the other bone fits into the saddle
ball and socket
shoulder and hips multi axial movement
factors affecting ROM (range of motion)
structure or shape of bonestension of ligamentsArrangement of ligamentscontact of soft partshormonesdisuse
