Joints, Bursae, Synovial tendon sheaths

Question 1

2 main joint types

Answer 1

Synarthroses and diarthroses

Question 2

Synarthroses

Answer 2

Together joints. Bones joined by this joint type are separated by connective tissue which permits limited joint movement

Question 3

Diarthroses

Answer 3

Moveable or synovial joints. Provide free movement between the bones they join. Joints of locomotion have these kinds of joints. Have synovial fluid, space and membrane, articular surface, fibrous capsule

Question 4

Synovial fluid

Answer 4

For joint lubrication

Question 5

Synovial space

Answer 5

Cavity of discontinuity between participating bones

Question 6

Fibrous capsule

Answer 6

Present in diarthrodial joints

Question 7

Synovial membrane

Answer 7

Lines fibrous capsule

Question 8

Articular surface

Answer 8

Smooths surfaces for articulation. Made of hyaline cartilage that caps underlying bones

Question 9

3 types of synarthroidal joints

Answer 9

Syndesmosis, Synchondrosis, Synostosis

Question 10

Syndesmosis

Answer 10

Fibrous joint. Opposed bones connected by fibrous tissue, almost immovable (examples–sutures of the cranium)

Question 11

Synchondrosis

Answer 11

Cartilaginous joint. 2 bones separated by cartilage. Permits very little movement.

Question 12

Epiphyseal plate

Answer 12

Slight bending movement allowed Primary cartilaginous joint (temporary). Present in children, but gone in adults

Question 13

Intervertebral disc

Answer 13

Secondary cartilaginous joint. Slight movement. Made of fibrocartilage

Question 14

Symphysis

Answer 14

Secondary cartilaginous joint. Slight movement Made of fibrocartilage between two pubic bones

Question 15

Synostosis

Answer 15

2 bones joined together by bone. Joint may have existed during development and grew as fibrous or cartilaginous until it was replaced as bone

Question 16

Bursae

Answer 16

Fluid filled sacs that separate muscles, tendons, skin fascia from certain bones. Has synovial fluid, serous membrane, and helps reduce friction. Frequently communicates with synovial cavity of adjacent joint

Question 17

Synovial tendon sheaths

Answer 17

Have a visceral later attached to parietal layer. Synovial fluid in the cavity allow for free movement of tendons over bone or joints. Also has serous membrane and helps reduce friction

Question 18

Arthritis

Answer 18

Inflammation of joint

Question 19

Synovitis

Answer 19

Inflammation of synovial membrane of joint

Question 20

Bursitis

Answer 20

Inflammation of bursa
