cover articulating surfaces, separated by synovial fluid

23
Q

Meniscus:

A

fibrocartilage pad between opposing bones

24
Q

Fat Pads:

A

adipose tissue covered by synovial membrane, protect articular cartilages

25
Q

Ligaments:

A

Support and strengthen joint

26
Q

Sprain:

A

ligament with torn collagen fibers

27
Q

Tendons:

A

attach to muscles around joint, may limit range motion provide mechanical support

28
Q

Bursae:

A

small pockets synovial fluid, cushion areas where tendons or ligaments rub against other tissues

29
Q

what are synovial joints categorized by? (2 things)

A
  1. amount movement allowed

2. shape of articulating surfaces
