22
apply a pulling force on fracture or dislocation to restore alignments
traction
23
– realigning bone fragments of fracture; closed reduction is manipulation without surgery; open reduction requires surgery.
reduction
24
Stabilizes fracture while it heals; external fixation includes cast and splints; internal fixation includes pins, plates and screws.
fixation
25
allow almost no movement; They are joined by thick fibrous tissue that can fuse into bone. EX is the sutures of the skull.
Fibrous Joints
26
Allow for slight movement They hold bones firmly in place with a solid piece of cartilage EX. Is the pubic symphysis, which allows the pelvis to widen during childbirth
cartilaginous joints

55
important layer of fatty tissue below the skin The subcutaneous layer, or HYPODERMIS, lies beneath the skin. It is composed of fat cells called LIPOCYTES. It protects the deeper tissues of body and acts as insulation against heat and cold.
subcutaneous layer
56
The middle, fibrous connective tissue layer. located between the epidermis and the subcutaneous layer. made of connective tissue and collagen fibers the dermis create unique fingerprints
dermis
57
The thin, outer membrane layer composed of stratified squamous epithelium. no blood supply or connective tissue basal layer is the deepest layer of the epidermis
epidermis
58
the functions of the skin
* Protection * House nerve receptors * Secrete fluids * Regulate temperature
