Chapter 8 PPT Flashcards
joints are functional
junctions between bones
joints bind
parts of skeletal system together
joints make
bone growth possible
joints permit parts of the skeleton to
change shape during childbirth
joints enable thebody to
move in response to skeletal muscle contractions
what are the structural classification of joints?
fibrous
cartilaginous
synovial
what are the functional classification of joints
synarthortic (immovable)
amphiarthrotic (slightly moveable)
diarthortic (freely moveable)
types of fibrous joints?
syndesmosis
suture
homphosis
Syndesmosis bones bound by
a sheet of dense connective tissue or a bundle of dense connectivetissue
syndesmosis fibrous joints are
amphiathrotic (flexible, may twist)
syndesmosis fibrous joints lie between
tibia and fibula
suture fibrous joints are between
flat bones of skull
suture fibrous joints contain a
thin layer of connective tissue to connects bone
suture fibrous joints are
synarthortic (immoveable)
gomphosis fibrous joints description
cone-shaped bony process I a socket in awbone .
gomphosis fibrous joint located in
tooth in jawbone by periodontal ligament
gomphosis fibrous joints are
synarthortic (immoveable)
cartilaginous joints are connected by
hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage
cartilaginous joints type
synchondrosis and symphysis
synchondrosis feature bands of
hyaline cartilage that unite bones
synchondrosis - some are temporary such as
epiphyseal plate
synchondrosis located between
manubrium and first rib
symphysis is a pad of
fibrocartilage between bones
symphysis articular surfaces covered by
hyaline cartilage
