22
what is the synovial membrane made of
areolar connective tissue
23
acts as a cushion to prevent friction in joints.
synovial fluid
24
what are ligaments made of
connective tissue
25
what do ligaments do
add strength to the joint

extra cushion in synovial joints
27
what are menisci made of
fibrocartilage
28
sac that has fluid
bursae
29
what does the bursae do
prevent things from rubbing against each other
30
where can bursae be found
between ligaments and bone, skin and bone, and bone and bone
31
fluid filled sac between bone and tendons
tendon sheath
32
what are some factors limiting movement (5)
non-boney parts, articulating bones, number of ligaments, tension of ligaments, and muscle tone
33

gliding
34
examples of gliding movement
inter carpal or inter tarsal or intervertebral
35
types of cartilaginous joints
synchondroses and symphyses
36

37
decr the angle between two bones
flexion
38
brings bones closer together
flexion
39
incr the angle between two bones
