functional category of joints
1- synarthrosis
2-amphiarthosis
3-diarthrosis
synarthrosis (structural categories)
fibrous, cartilaginous, bony fusion
amphiarthosis (structural category)
fibrous and carilaginous
diarthrosis (structural category)
synovial
articulations
where two bones meet
three functional (physiological) classifications of joints
synarthrosis, amphiarthrosis and diarthrosis
list 4 structural (anatomical) classifications of joints
fibrous, cartilaginous, bony and synovial
all synovial joints are
diarthroses
all diarthroses are
synovial
synovial joints are __ and classified as __.
freely movable, diarthrosis.
a two layered __ __, aka __ __
joint capsule aka articular capsule
contains an inner __ __ and outer __ __.
synovial membrane, fibrous capsule
articular cartilage differs from other __ cartilage in that there is no ___, has more __, and its surface is &.
hyaline. perichondrium, water, slick&smooth
what separates articular cartilages in a healthy joints?
synovial fluid
how does articular cartilage respond to damage?
matrix breaks down, exposed surface changes to rough abrasive surfaces of bristly collagen fibers
synovial fluid:
contains proteoglycans with high concentration of hyaluronan secretion by fibroblasts of synovial membrane
synovial fluid is made by the
synovial membrane (includes oxygen and nutrients)
3 primary functions of synovial fluid
1- lubrication/ reduce friction
2- nutrient distribution (to cartilage in joint)
3- shock absorption
menisci are made of ___ and lie between ___.
fibrocartilage. opposing articular surfaces
fat pads are __ the joint cavity
outside
what fills in the changing spaces created as joints move
fat pads
accessory ligaments __, __ and __ the joints
support, strengthen, and reinforce
what is a sprain?
ligament with some torn collagen fibers
