Lab 10 Joints and Muscular System Flashcards
The Functional Classification of joints is based on:
The amount of movement that can occur at the joint.
List the 3 basic types of functional activity of joints.
Synarthorses; immovable
Ampiarthroses; slightly moveable
Diarthroses; movable
The Structural Classification of joints relies on:
The type of connective tissues which binds the articulating surfaces together.
What are the 3 structural joint classifications?
- Fibrous
- Cartilaginous
- Synovial
What are the 2 types of Fibrous Joints?
Sutures
Syndesmoses
What is an example of a Syndesmoses joint?
Between the tibia and fibula distally
Where are examples of sutures located?
Cranial and facial bones.
What are the 2 types of cartilaginous joints?
1) Synchondroses
2) Symphyses
Functionally what type of cartilaginous joint is the articulation of rib 1 and the manubrium?
Synchondroses
What is an example of a Symphyses cartilaginous joint?
Intervertebral d0iscs between the bodies of the vertebrae
List the 6 types of Synovial Joints.
1) Plane
2) Hinge
3) Pivot
4) Condyloid
5) Saddle
6) Ball and Socket
The shoulder and hip joint are examples of what type of synovial joint?
Ball and Socket
Give 2 examples of Plane joints.
1) Between carpal bones of the wrist
2) Sternocostal joints of ribs 2-7
