- thin slack joint capsule
3
Q
Trochoid Joint
A
- SYNOVIAL
- pivot

4
Q
Condyloid Joint
A
- SYNOVIAL
- one or two concave surfaces articulating with one or two convex surfaces
- biaxial
5
Q
Sellar Joints
A
- SYNOVIAL
- saddle

- biaxial
- allowing false circumvention without rotation
6
Q
Spheroidal Joints
A
- SYNOVIAL
- ball and socket
- multi axial
- allowing circumduction in multiple planes
7
Q

A
- FIBROUS
- two bones separated by fibrous membrane
12
Q
Synchondrosis
A
- primary cartilaginous joints
- temporary unions of hyaline cartilage
- usually between diaphysis and epiphysis of growing bone
13
Q
Symphysis
A
- secondary cartilaginous joint
- strong slightly moveable joints united by fibrocartilage
