Q

How to determine solid joints

A
  • No joint cavity present
  • The bone surface is connected by stiff connective tissue (most often fibrocartilage)
  • Allows little movement

Q

How to determine synovial joints

A
  • Have a small cavity between adjoining bones which are surrounded by a joint capsule
  • The capsule is filled with synovial fluid which lubricates the joint surface
  • Allow for movment

Q

How to determine plane joints

A
  • Uniaxial
  • Allows sliding/gliding movements between bones in one plane
21
Q

Convex

A

having an outline or surface curved like the exterior of a sphere or a circle

22
Q

Concave

A

having an outline or surface that curves inward like the interior of a cave

23
Q

How to determine hinge joints

A
  • Bone articular surfaces are convex and concave
  • permits movement along one plane
24
Q

What type of movement does a hinge joint have

A

Flexion and extension

25
Q

Plantar flexion

A

flexing towards the plantar surface (pointing foot)

26
Q

Dorsiflexion

A

flexing towards the dorsal surface (flexing foot)

27
Q

How to determine pivot joints

A
  • when one cylinder bone rotates within the concavity of another bone
  • permits rotation in one plane (passes longitudinally along the shaft of a bone)
28
Q

What type pf movement does a pivot joint have

A

Permits rotation

29
Q

Condyle

A

a rounded protuberance (something that sticks out) at the end of some bones, which forms an articulation with another bone (often egg-shaped)

30
Q

Protuberance

A

something that protrudes/sticks out from a surface

31
Q

Articulation

A

the point where two bones meet to form a joint

32
Q

How to determine bicondylar joints

A
  • biaxial
  • when two slightly convex bone surfaces (the condyles), fit into two slightly concave surfaces
  • the condyle is often egg-shaped
  • allows movement in two planes (one has full movement, the other has limited
33
Q

What type of movement does a bicondylar joint permit

A

flexion/extension/rotation

34
Q

How to determine a condylar joint

A
  • biaxial
  • when one slightly convex bone surface (the condyle), fits into a slightly concave surface
  • the condyle is often egg-shaped
35
Q

What type of movement does a condylar joint permit

A

flexion/extension, abduction/adduction

36
Q

How to determine a saddle joint

A
  • articular surfaces are saddle (c) shaped
  • allows movement in two planes at right angles to one another
37
Q

What type of movement does a saddle joint permit

A

flexion/extension, abduction/adduction

38
Q

How to determine a ball and socket joint

A
  • rounded/convex bone surface (ball) fits into a socket/concavity of another bone
  • allows movement in multiple planes
39
Q

What type of movement does a ball and socket joint permit

A

flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, rotation

40
Q

What are the types of solid joints

A
  • pubic symphysis
  • sutures of the skull
41
Q

What type of movement is an acromioclavicular joint

A

planar movement

42
Q

What type of movement is a humero-ulnar joint

A

flexion/extension

43
Q

What type of movement is Talocrural joint

A

plantarflexion/dorsiflexion

44
Q

What type of movement is Atlanto-axial

A

rotation

45
Q

What type of movement is Tibiofemoral joint

A
