Q

The articular surfaces of synovial joints contact one another and determine the type and possible __ ___ ___

A

range of motion

84
Q

**Range of Motion **refers to?

A

the range, measured in degrees of a circle, through which the bones of a joint can be moved

85
Q

Factors contribute to keeping the articular surfaces in contact and affect range of motion (6)

A

1) structure of shape of articulating bones
2) strength or tension of joint ligaments
3) arrangement & tension of muscles
4) contact of soft parts
5) hormones
6) disuse

86
Q

1) structure of shape of articulating bones

A

Shape of bones determines how closely they fit together

87
Q

2) strength or tension of joint ligaments

A

Ligaments are tense when the joint is in certain positions

Tense ligaments restrict the range of motion & direct motion

88
Q

3) arrangement & tension of muscles

A

Muscle tension reinforces the restraint placed on a joint by its ligaments , and thus restricts movement

89
Q

4) contact of soft parts

A

The point at which one body surface contacts another may limit mobility

Movement be restricted by the presence of adipose tissue
