18
Q

Epicondyle

A

Usually roughened projection on a condyle

19
Q

Line (Lyna)

A

Long narrow ridge or border

20
Q

Facet

A

Smooth flat, slightly concave articulate surface

21
Q

Head

A

Usually rounded articulate process supported by a neck

22
Q

Crest

A

Prominent ridge or elongated process

23
Q

Spinous process

A

Sharp slender projection

24
Q

Trochanter

A

Very large projection found ONLY on the femur

25
Q

Articulation

Arthrosis

A

Point of contact between two bones, bone cartilage

Hold bones together permitting movement

Flexible connective tissue form joints

Joint

26
Q

How joints are classified

A

Structurally

Is there a joint cavity
What connective tissue

Functionally

What degree of movement is permitted

27
Q

Synovial joints

A

There’s a joint cavity
Articulate cartilage at the ends of long bones
Hip knee shoulder

28
Q

Cartilaginous

A

No joint cavity
Cartilage connective tissue

Synchondrosis- hyaline cartilage no movement

Symphysis- fibrocartilage some movement

29
Q

Fibrous

A

Sutures - dense fibrosis CT

Syndesmoses- more dense fibrous CT than sutures

30
Q

Sybchondrosis

A

Hyaline cartilage is the connecting

Synarthroses

31
Q

Symphysis

A

Bones are connected by a broad flat disk

Anarthroses

32
Q

Fibrous joints

Sutures

A

Thin layer of fibrous connective tissue that Unite bones of the skull together

33
Q

Synedesmoses

Fibrous joints

A

A greater distance between bones than in a suture so there is more connective tissue

34
Q

Fibrous joints

Gomophoses

A

A joint in which a cone shaped peg fits into a socket

35
Q

Synovial joints

A

Cavity between the articulating blend that is filled with fluids

Fluid is lubrication

Joints are freely movable

Joint surrounded by sleeve to help enclose bones together

36
Q

Planar joints

A

Synovial

Flat surfaces opposing one another

Slide or slide rotation

37
Q

Hinge joints

A

Synovial

Convex surface of one bone fits into concave if another

Angular opening in motion

38
Q

Pivot joints

A

Synovial

Rounded or pointed surface of one bone articulated with a ring formed part of another bone

Rotation along its longitudinal axis

39
Q

Condyloid joint

A

Synovial

Movement in z axis
Knuckle digging into shallow

Biplanes motion

40
Q

SAddle joints

A

Synovial joint
Saddle shaped bone fits into a saddle as a ride le would sit

Bipolar motion with limited spinning

41
Q

Ball and socket joint

A

3 axis of movement

42
Q

Soft tissue

A

Bursae - synovial fluid filled sacked
Cushioned movement

Bursitis - inflammation of a bursae

43
Q

Pads of fibrocartilage are sometimes found between the articulate surfaces of synovial joints

A

Increase movement and force dispersion
