46
What is the definition of joints?
Joints are unions or junctions between two or more bones or rigid parts of the skeleton.
47
What is another name for joints?
Articulations or arthroses hence inflammation of joints = arthritis
48
What are the three types of joints based on structure and movement?
Fibrous joints Cartilaginous joints Synovial joints
49
What are fibrous joints joined by? what kind of movement does this allow?
United by fibrous tissue (dense connective tissue). Allow no significant movement.
50
What are cartilaginous joints joined by? what kind of movement does this allow?
Joined by hyaline or fibrocartilage. Slightly moveable
51
what are the primary and secondary types of cartilaginous joints
Primary type: Synchondroses. Secondary type: Symphysis.
52
What are synovial joints united by?
United by a joint capsule enclosing a joint cavity.
53
what does the joint cavity in synovial joint contain? what does this allow?
Joint cavity contains lubricating synovial fluid. Permit free movement, depending on the joint's shape.

What structurally strengthens and reinforces synovial joints?
Ligaments structurally strengthen and reinforce synovial joints
62
What are some distinguishing features of synovial joints?
Some synovial joints have distinguishing features such as fibrocartilaginous articular discs (e.g., TMJ) or meniscus (e.g., knee).

79
What supplies blood to joints?
articular arteries
80
What is formed when articular arteries anastomose?
peri-articular arterial anastomoses.
81
How are joints innervated?
innervated by articular nerves with sensory endings in the joint capsule for proprioception and nociception.
82
What is Hilton’s law?
Hilton’s law states that the nerves supplying the muscles acting on the joint also supply the joint itself.
83
What branches of nerves supply the joints?
Branches of cutaneous nerves supply the overlying skin. Branches of nerves supplying muscles that cross the joint.
