Q

Focuses on the degree of motion at each joint.

It Includes:

Synarthrosis – immovable joint (ex, skull)
Amphiarthrosis – slightly movable joint (ex. between vertebrae)
Diarthrosis – freely movable joint ( ex. knee, elbow, wrist)

Q

The bones are united by fibrous connective tissue.
They allow little or no movement.
Based on structure, joints in this group are further classified into: sutures, syndesmoses, gomphoses

Q

These are fibrous joints between the bones of the skull.

They are immovable due to interlocking junctions between the bones and short numerous connective fibers.

21
Q

Two types of cartilaginous joints:

A

Synchondrosis, Symphysis

22
Q

Bones are joined together by hyaline cartilage.

Ex. costal cartilage connection between a rib and the sternum

A

Synchondrosis

23
Q

Synchondrosis Bones are joined together by .

A

hyaline cartilage

24
Q

Bones are joined together by fibrocartilage.

Ex. pubic symphysis and the joints between the bodies of vertebrae.

A

Symphysis

25
Q

Symphysis, Bones are joined together by .

A

fibrocartilage

26
Q

They are commonly referred to as freely movable joints, however their flexibility does vary.
All have certain characteristics in common.

A

Synovial Joints

27
Q

FOUR Functions synovial joints

A

Articular/Hyaline Cartilage
Two-Layered Joint Capsule
Synovial Fluid
Ligament

28
Q

Prevent friction between articulating bones

A

Articular/Hyaline Cartilage

29
Q

• Two-Layered Joint Capsule

  • Strengthen joint
  • To secrete synovial fluid
A

Outer Layer

Inner Layer

30
Q

Reduce friction between articular cartilages
Nourish articular cartilage
Rid the joint of waste

A

Synovial Fluid

31
Q

To connect one bone to another

A

Ligament

32
Q

The classification of synovial joints is according to the

A

shape of the adjoining articular surfaces.

33
Q

Types of Synovial Joints

A

Plane or Gliding Joints
Saddle Joints
Hinge Joints
Pivot Joints
Ball and Socket Joints
Ellipsoid or Condyloid

34
Q

Consists of two opposed flat surfaces that glide over each other.

Ex. between two carpal bones, articular processes between vertebra

A

Plane or Gliding Joints

35
Q

Plane or Gliding Joints ex.

A

between two carpal bones, articular processes between vertebra

36
Q

Symphysis ex.

A

pubic symphysis and the joints between the bodies of vertebrae.

37
Q

Synchondrosis ex.

A

costal cartilage connection between a rib and the sternum

38
Q

Gomphoses ex.

A

the joint between a tooth and its socket

39
Q

Syndesmoses ex.

A

interosseous membrane between radius and ulna

40
Q

Sutures ex.

A

coronal suture between frontal and parietal bones

41
Q

Plane or Gliding Joints ex.

A

between two carpal bones, articular processes between vertebra

42
Q

Consists of two saddle – shaped articulating surfaces oriented at right angles to one another.
Allow movement in two planes.

Ex. base of the thumb, trapezium of the wrist.

A

Saddle Joints

43
Q

Saddle Ex.

A

base of the thumb, trapezium of the wrist.

44
Q

Consists of a convex cylinder of one bone applied to a corresponding concavity of the other bone.
Permit movement in one plane.

Ex. elbow and knee joints.

A

Hinge Joints

45
Q

Hinge Joints Ex.

A

elbow and knee joints.

46
Q

Consist of the rounded end of one bone fitting into a ring formed by the other bone.
Restrict movement to rotation around a single axis.

Ex. joint between the atlas and axis, joint at proximal ends of radius and
ulna.

A

Pivot Joints

47
Q

Pivot Joints Ex

A

. joint between the atlas and axis, joint at proximal ends of radius and ulna.

48
Q

Consist of a ball at the end of one bone and a socket in an adjacent bone into which a portion of the ball fits.
Allows a wide range of movement in any direction.

Ex. shoulder and hip joints.

A

Ball and Socket Joints

49
Q

Ball and Socket Joints Ex.

A

shoulder and hip joints.

50
Q

A modified ball and socket joint in which the joint surfaces are elongated.
The shape of the joint limits its range of movement nearly to a hinge motion, but in two planes.

Ex. joint between the occipital condyles of the skull, atlas of the vertebral column.

A

Ellipsoid or Condyloid

51
Q

Ellipsoid or Condyloid Ex.

A

joint between the occipital condyles of the skull, atlas of the vertebral column.
