Classified as diarthroses
Covered with articulate capsule
Fibrous joint
Dense regular connective tissue holds together the ends of bones and bone parts
No joint cavity
Cartilaginous
Pad of cartilage is wedged between the ends of bones
No joint cavity
Gomphosis
Tooth to jaw

Losing bone mass
Synovial inflammation, swelling caused by increase in synovial fluid
Medullary cavity
Hollow, cylindrical space within the diaphysis
Contains bone marrow
Metaphysis
Region between diaphysis and epiphysis
Contains growth plate
Endosteum
Layer of cells that covers all internal surfaces of the bone
Periosteum
Dense irregular connective tissues covering the outer surface of bone
Osseous tissue matrix is composed of
Calcium phosphate
Diathrosis
Freely mobile
Articular capsule
Synovial joints
Cruciate ligament
Limits the movement of the femur on the tibia
Pubic symphysis classified as
Cartilaginous joint
Amphiarthrosis
As the bone matrix calcifies and the secreting cells become walled in…
Osteoblasts become osteocytes
