bone and joints Flashcards
synarthroses
an immovably fixed joint between bones connected by fibrous tissue
diarthrosis
synovial joint, more mobile joint with fluid and cartilage
synotosis
Bone, no movement for example mature skull
synchondrosis
cartilage, growth plate
symphysis
fibrocartilage joining, early pelvic
syndesmosis
fibrous joining for example early skull
ginglymus
hinge joint, only allow movement in one axis
trochoid
pivot joint, only allow movement in one axis
saddle/sellar
joint that moves in 2 axes for example Interphalangeal
ellipsoidal
moves in two axes
enarthrosis
ball and socket joint, can move in three axes
planar
sliding joint, only has translational movement not rotation
synovial membrane
glistening pink membrane that lines synovial joints
type A synoviocytes
phagocytic cells
type B synoviocytes
secretory cells
synovial fluid
secreted by plasma, made up of plasma, ultra-filtrate and hyaluronate
synovial fluid function
lubricant and nutritive
articular cartilage
arcade arrangement of collagen -tangential fibres superficially and perpendicular fibres deeper. no blood vessels and nerves fed by diffusion
