fibrous
symphyses & synchondroses are ____ joints
cartilagenous
___ joints can be found in the knee
synovial
immovable joints
synarthrosis
slightly movable joints
amphiarthrosis
freely movable
diarthrosis
thin layer of fibrous CT connecting cranial bones, what their function?
sutures, synarthrosis
bones fuse to form a single bone
synostosis (fetal frontal bone fuses into 1)
articulating bones are held together by fibrous CT, whats their function?
syndesmoses, amphiarthrosis (connecting tibia/fibula- ligament)
gomphosis? an example & is functionally a ___
only 1 example- peridontal ligament (teeth)
attaches teeth into their sockets in alveolar bones
synarthrosis
__ is a thin pad of fibrocartilage between bones, functionally its…
symphysis
amphiarthrosis
__ is hyaline cartilage, and functionally ___
synchondrosis, amphiarthrosis in ribs and vertebrae (except when in epiphyseal plate then synarthrosis)
space between articulating bones that has fluid in joint cavity
synovial
classifying joints:
- flat articular surface
- a location
gliding joint (most simple movement) intercarpal/tarsal
classifying joints:
- convex surface of one bone fits into concave surface of other bone
- a location
hinge joint
in antecubital area, helps bend upward
classifying joints:
- rounded surface of one bone articulates within a ring formned partly by bone and partly a ligament (rotation on single plane)
- location
pivot joint
neck (turning side to side) or wrist
classifying joints:
- oval shaped condyle articulating with a cavity of another (movement in 2 planes)
- location
condyloid or ellipsoidal (adduction/abduction)
radiocarpal joint/ radius
classifying joints:
- articular surface of one bone is saddle shaped (biaxial)
- location
saddle joint
base of thumb (trapezium)
classifying joints:
- ball like surface of one bone fits into a cup like depression of another (triaxial)
- location
ball and socket (spheroid)
shoulder (circumduction)
