Q

Functional classifications

A

Based on range of motion f the joint

  • synarthrosis
  • amphiarthrosis
  • diarthrosis

Q

Structural classifications

A

Relies on the anatomical organization of the joint

  • bony
  • fibrous
  • cartilaginous
  • synovial

Q

Synarthroses joints

A
Immovable 
Very strong
Edges of bones touch or interlock 
Are 4 types 
-suture
-gomphosis
-synchondrosis
-synostosis

Stronger then freely movable 
Two types 
-syndrsmosis
-symphysis

16
Q

Gomphosis

A

Fibrous connection

Bunds teeth to sockets

17
Q

Synostosis

A

Fused bones , immovable
Metopic suture of skull
Epiphyseal lines of long bones

18
Q

Articular cartilages

A

Smooth surface is lubricated by synovial fluid to reduce friction
Pad articulating surface are in articular capsules which prevents bones from touching

19
Q

Synovial fluid

A

Obtains slippery proteoglycans secreted by fibroblasts

  • lubrication
  • nutrient distribution
  • shock absorption
20
Q

Accessory stuructures

A
Cartilages
Fat pads 
Ligaments
Tendons
Bursae
21
Q

Cartilages

A

Cushion the joins

22
Q

Fat pads

A

Superficial to the joint capsule

Protects articular cartilages

23
Q

Ligaments

A

Support and strengthen joints

24
Q

Tendons

A

Attach to muscle around joint

Help support the joint

25
Q

Bursae

A

Singular, bursa, a pouch
Pockets of synovial fluid
Cushion areas where tendons or ligaments rub

26
Q

Injuries

A

Dislocation: articulating surfaces are forced out of position
Dances to articular cartilage, ligaments and joint capsule
Subluxation: a partial dislocation

27
Q

Three types of dynamic motion

A

Linear movement ( gliding )
Angular movement
Rotation

28
Q

Planes of dynamic motion

A

Monaxial ( 1 axis )
Biaxial ( 2 axes )
Triaxial ( 3 axes )
