38
Q

a place of movement where two or more bones meet

A

joint

39
Q

synarthrotic

A

fixed joint

40
Q

amphiarthrotic

A

slightly moveable

41
Q

diarthrotic

A

freely moveable

42
Q

suture

A

synarthrotic. located between bones of the skull

43
Q

Synostosis

A

synarthrotic. two bones fuse and the boundary between then dissapears

44
Q

Syndesmosis

A

amphiarthrotic. connected by interosseous ligaments

45
Q

Gomphosis

A

synarthroic. peg in socket . tooth

46
Q

Synchondrosis

A

rigid, hyaline cartilage that unites bones

47
Q

Symphysis

A

articulating bones that are separated by a wedge or pad of fibrocartilage

48
Q

Joint cavity

A

space between articulating bones

49
Q

Articular cartilages

A

line surface of articulating bones. composed of hyaline cartilage, lack perichondrium

50
Q

Synovial fluid

A

derived from blood and has a clear, viscous egg-white consistency

51
Q

Joint capsule

A

Layers of dense fibrous connective tissues that enclose the synovial cavity to house the synovial fluid.

52
Q

Fibrous capsule

A

Support, strengthen, and reinforce synovial joints

53
Q

Bursa

A

small, fluid filled pocket that forms in connective tissue

54
Q

Fat pads

A

adipose tissue covered by a layer of synovial membrane

55
Q

Meniscus

A

fibrous cartilage situated between opposing bones within a synovial joint

56
Q

functions of synovial fluid

A

nutrient distribution, lubrication, shock absorption

57
Q

If you were doing jumping jacks, describe the type of movement occurring as your finger come together and your legs move apart.

A

Abduction

58
Q

The main function of a fibrous joint

A

Provide stability between two bones.

59
Q

Could a fibrous joint perform its functions if it were a diarthrosis?

A

No, the primary function of a fibrous joint is to provide stability between two bones. A diarthrosis is a freely moveable joint and so has very little stability. A fibrous joint that was a diarthrosis could therefore not effectively perform its function
