Chapter 9: Joints Flashcards
Fibrous Joints
- no cavity
- synarthroses (immovable) with the acception of syndesmosis (amphiathroses- slightly moveable)
types of fibrous joints
- suture
- syndesmoses (connetive tissue bands)
- gomphosis (between teeth and their sockets)
examples of syndesmoses joints
-tibio-fibular ligaments
interosseous membrane
example of gomphosis
- aveolar socket of jaw bone
- tooth
- periodontal ligament
cartilaginour joints
articulating bones that are connected with hyaline cartilage (synchondroses) or fibrocartilage (symphysis)
examples of synchondrosis (hyaline cartilage)
-groiwing bone, hyaline cartilage joints
examples of symphysis
pelvic girdle
fibrocartilage joint
synovial joint
- articulating bones are united by an aricular capsule
- freely moveable- diarthritis
- contain ligaments to increase stability
synovial cavity
-filled with synovial fluid
synovial fluid
-works to lubricate and reduce friction between articular cartilage
hyaline or fibrocartilage
-cpver he articulating surfacea of bones to cushion shocks and reduce friction
articular capsule is made up of
- fibrous capsule
- synovial membrane
condyloid joint
- biaxial angular movement
- radius and scaphoid/ lunate
planar joint
- non axial gliding within plane
- inbetween carples
sadle joint
- biaxial angular (side to side, up and down)
- hamate and metatarsle
pivot joint
- monaxial rotating
- head of radius and the annular redial ligament
hinge joint
monoaxial anglar movements
-trochlea and trochlar notch
