Chapter Nine/Ten Flashcards
(152 cards)
Articulations
Between two joints
-bone and cartilage
-bone and teeth
As mobility increases….
Stability decreases
Three classifications of joints
-fibrous
-cartilaginous
-synoural
Synorial
-very unstable and mobile
-separated by a joint cavity
-dense irregular tissue
Three accessory organs
Bursa, fat pad and tendons
Uniaxial
One plane/axes
Cartilaginous
-Immobile
-attached by cartilage
-no joint cavity
Types of cartilaginous
-synchondroses
-symphyses
Synchondroses
Hyaline cartilage
-helpful in determining age (eventually disappears)
Example: first rib and sternum
Symphyses
-fibrocartiledge and slight mobility
-resists compression and shock absorber
Example: pubic symphysis (adjusts in pregnancy)
Fibrous
-immobile
-no joint cavity
-prevents and restricts movement
Examples of fibrous (3)
-gomphoses
-sutures
-syndesmoses
Gomphoses
-held firmly in place by periodontal membrane
Example: teeth
Sutures
-shock absorber
Example: skull
Syndesmoses
-slight mobility
Example: tibia and fibula
Ligaments
Dense regular tissue
-intrinsic binding
-reinforces synorial joints
B2b
A joint cavity means
There is synouidal fluid
-movement and mobility
Biaxial
Two planes/axes
Multiaxial
Multiple plane/axes
Plane joint
Flat surface that slices
-side to side
-back to front
Example: intecarpal and tertarsal
Hinge joint
Bone fits into a depress
Example: elbow joint
Pivot joint
Bone fits into ring by other bone
Example: atlantoaxial
Saddle joint
Articulate saddle shape, fits into articulate saddle
Example: hip bone
Ball/socket joint
Bone fits into socket of other bone
Example: hip bone
