36
What is the structure and function of a fibrous joint
S = between bones
F = join bones but do not allow for movement
37
What is the structure and function of a cartilaginous joint?
S = cartilage between ones
F = absorb shock
38
What is the structure and function of synovial joints?
S = space between bones including ligaments, joint capsule, synovial fluid and articular cartilage
F = to allow for movement
39
What is the function of ligaments?
join bones to bones and stabilise joints
40
What is the function of synovial fluid?
to decrease friction in joint and increase mobility
41
What is the function of the articular cartilage?
to decrease friction and absorb shock to increase mobility of joint
42
What is the function of the joint capsule?
To help stabilise the joint
43
What is the function of bursa?
To prevent friction between bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments.
