Articulations

Question 1

Fibrous Joints

Answer 1

bones connected by CT, sutures
immovable

Question 2

Cartilaginous Joints

Answer 2

Bones entirely joined by cartilage, symphysis pubis
more moveable than fibrous, less than synovial

Question 3

Synovial Joints

Answer 3

freely moveable joints

Question 4

Articular Cartilage

Answer 4

covers the bone on the periosteum to prevent bone grinding on bone

Question 5

Joint cavity

Answer 5

has a synovial membrane that produces fluid and cushions the joint cavity

Question 6

articular capsule
fibrous/synovial

Answer 6

holds bones together, outside of it is CT
thickening of the joint capsule forms ligaments

Question 7

synovial fluid

Answer 7

joint lubricant, prevents friction

Question 8

ligaments

Answer 8

thickening of CT around joint capsule

Question 9

flexion
extension

Answer 9

decrease in angle
increase in angle

Question 10

adduction

Answer 10

to take away, lateral movement
to bring back, medial movement

Question 11

circumduction

Answer 11

flexion, extension, abduction, adduction
not rotation

Question 12

rotation

Answer 12

body moving around central axis

Question 13

supinate
pronate

Answer 13

radius rotates laterally around ulna
ulna rotates medially around radius

Question 14

eversion

Answer 14

bottom of foot turns medially
bottom of foot turns laterally

Question 15

plantar flexion
dorsiflexion

Answer 15

pointed foot
flexed foot

Question 16
