Q

Synovial joints

A

are the most common type of joint in the body. They allow movement and are more structurally complex These joints consist of articular cartilage, a joint capsule, and a synovial membrane. In this type of joint, two bones are separated by a space filled with synovial fluid, which is secreted by the synovial membrane.

moves a structure superiorly

85
Q

; depression

moves it inferiorly

86
Q

A

is a gliding motion that moves a structure in an anterior direction (figure 8.9Bd). Jutting out the jaw and hunching the shoulders are examples of protraction.

87
Q

Retraction

A

is a gliding motion that moves a structure in a posterior direction (figure 8.9Bd). Pulling the jaw back and pinching or pulling the scapulae back toward the vertebral column illustrate retraction.

88
Q

Lateral excursion

A

is moving the mandible to either the right or the left of the midline (figure 8.9Be), as occurs when grinding the teeth or chewing.

89
Q

Medial excursion

A

returns the mandible to the midline position.

90
Q

Opposition

A

is a movement unique to the thumb (figure 8.9Bg). It occurs when the thumb and the tip of a finger on the same hand are brought toward each other across the palm.

91
Q

Reposition

A

returns the thumb to the neutral, anatomical position.

93
Q

Eversion
