5 - Comparative Arthrology Flashcards
– Joints united by fibrous tissue, cartilage or a mixture of the two.
– Often termed immovable joints.
Synarthroses
–applied to the joints of the skull where the adjacent margins of the bones are interlocked.
Suture
What suture where the edges overlap – parieto-temporal joint.
Squamous suture
What suture where the edges are irregular – Frontal joint.
Serrated suture
What suture where the edges are straight – nasal joint.
Harmonious suture
–Where the uniting medium is elastic tissue, white fibrous tissue or mixture.
–attachments of costal cartilages to each other.
Syndesmosis
–found between the tooth and the alveolar sockets.
Gomphosis
“cartilaginous joint”
– Joints which have both synarthrodial and diarthrodial features
– intercentral vertebral joints.
–Cartilaginous permits limited movement such as compression, stretching and bending
–hayaline cartilage with fibrocartilage or a combination of two hyaline cartilage and fibrous cartilage
Ampiarthroses
•where the uniting medium is cartilage
•sphenoid and basilar occipital joint
Synchondrosis
Cartilage becomes ossified making?
synostoses
•applied to joints in the median plane
•The uniting medium is generally ossified cartilage and fibrous tissue
Symphysis
“true joints”
– This joints are those which possess the following features:
•a synovial joint cavity
•a joint capsule with synovial membrane and synovial fluid
•Articular cartilage
•Mobility
Diarthroses
hinge joint, elbow. (Diarthrodial joint)
Ginglymus
gliding joint, intercarpals. (Diarthrodial joint)
Arthrodial
pivot joint, atlanto-axial (Diarthrodial joint)
Trochoid
ball and socket joint, hip (Diarthrodial joint)
Enarthrosis
– Between ramus of mandible and squamous temporal bone on either side.
TEMPORO-MANDIBULAR JOINT
Movable vertebrae form two separate articulations
VERTEBRAE(joint?)
joint etween the bodies of vertebrae
Intercentral
joints between the articular processes of vertebrae
Interneural
Intercentral articulations are?
ampiarthroses
Interneural articulations are?
diarthroses
- What are diarthroses peculiar to Equidae.
- They occur between the transverse processes of 5th and 6th lumbar, and between the latter and the wings of the sacrum.
Intertransverse articulations
What is diarthrodial with ginglymus filament (movement).
atlanto-occipital articulation
