fibrous joint has _____________
collagen fibers
cartilaginous joint has ____________
cartilage
synovial joint has ____________
joint capsule and accessory ligaments
a joint that lacks a synovial cavity, bones are held together by fibrous connective tissue (little to no movement), can be one of 3 structural types
fibrous joints
What are the 3 structural types of fibrous joints?
(1) sutural
(2) gomphoses
(3) sydesmoses
a kind of fibrous joint where dense fibrous tissue forms a sutural ligament, unites the bones of the skull
sutures
a kind of fibrous joint where dense fibrous connective tissue form a periodontal ligament, example includes teeth in alveolar process, amphiarthrotic
gomphoses
a fibrous joint where dense fibrous connective tissue forms an interosseous ligament, connects 2 moveable bones, amphiarthrotic
syndesmoses
a joint that lacks a synovial cavity and bone are tightly connected by fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage, allows little to no movement, can be one of 2 structural types
cartilaginous joints
a kind of cartilaginous joint where bones are connected by hyaline cartilage, (ex. epiphyseal plate)
synchondroses
the fusion of bones in a synarthrotic joint
synostosis
a kind of cartilaginous joint where bones are connected by fibrocartilage, (includes vertebral discs)
symphyses
a joint where bones are separated by a synovial cavity, encased in a joint capsule of dense irregular tissue, has a synovial membrane and articular cartilage, also contains synovial fluid as its only blood supply
synovial joints
What makes up synovial fluid?
blood filtrate, hyaluronic acid, glycoproteins
a kind of movement where opposing surfaces slide past one another, (pencil is vertical and the tip slides in a + motion)
linear motion (gliding motion)
a kind of movement where a change in angle between shaft and articular surface is seen , classification is determined by change from anatomical position (pencil tip remains stationary, shaft changes angle)
angular motion
movement away from longitudinal axis
abduction
movement toward longitudinal axis
adduction
a decrease in anterior/posterior angle
flexion
an increase in anterior/posterior angle
extension
circular motion w/o rotation
circumduction
a kind of movement where spinning of the shaft occurs without changing the angle (pencil has upright angle, spins around longitudinal axis)
rotation motion
medial rotation moves ______________
inward
lateral rotation moves __________
outward
movement of the radius inward
pronation
movement of the radius outward
supination
twisting the sole of the foot inward and outward
inversion and eversion
