Articulations Flashcards
Joints
Where two or more bones come together
Articulations
Move built
Synarthrosis
Immovable
Amphiarthrosis amphi(between)
Slightly movable
Diarthrosis
Freely movable
Bony fusion
Fusion of frontal bone
Fibrous joint
Skull sutures
Cartilaginous joint
Pubic symphysis
Synovial joint
Ball and socket hinge joints
Sutures (joints found in skull) fibrous joint
Bones are interlocked together
Gomphosis (joint between teeth and jaw bones)
Periodontal ligaments of teeth ( TOP all of teeth in maxillae) teeth anchored in socket fibrous joint (actually a ligament) periodontal ligament
Synchondrosis (joint with epiphysis of bone)
Binds with the diaphysis to epiphysis (syn locked together) chondro( cartilage) bone cartilage bone hyline
Synostosis(joint between two fused bones)
Fusion of three coxal bones (syn fused) osteo (bone) illium ishium pubis (il, is, pub)
Amphiarthroses slightly movable
Syndesmosis (ligaments that connect two bones but limit their motion)
Between radius and ulna
Tibula fibula
Length and tightness of ligament allow more or less movement
Symphysis (bones are separated by a wedge or pad of cartilage)
Between the pubic bones of the two coxal bones cartilaginous... bone cart( bone Fibrous cartilage (shock absorber) or vertebral column
Diarthroses (freely movable)
Synovial Joints
-typically at the end of long bones
All the joints in the limbs
Bone (open space with fluid) bone
