3 Structural classifications of a joint:
- synovial joint
- cartilaginous joint
- fibrous joint
synovial joint is not based on the type of connective tissue instead just not that ______ & _______ tissues are at a synovial joint.
fibrous and cartilage
- What binds connective tissue is fibrous tissue and there is no synovial cavity associated with the joint.
- Functionally, little or no movement.
- sutures in the skull & gomphosis
fibrous joints.
- What binds tissues in cartilaginous and there is no synovial cavity associated with the joint.
- Functionally, also little to no movement.
- pubic symphysis and intervertebral discs.
Cartilaginous joint.
What is a diathrotic joint?
a synovial joint(freely moving).
Tendons attach?
muscle to bone
