Lab Week 7 (exam 2) Flashcards
What are the two joint classifications and explain
1) structural- how the joint is build
2) functional- how freely the joint can move
What are the types of joints in the structural classification?
Fibrous
Cartilagenous
Bony
Synouial
What is the fibrous joint?
Proteins hold joint together
Ex: sutures
What is the cartilagenous joint?
Cartilage
Ex: pubic symphysis
What is a symphysis?
Place in skeleton where 2 broad bony elements connect to each other
What are the bony joints?
Occur when bones fuse to each other
Deer has 2 frontal bones
What is the synouial joints?
Has articular cartilage, synouial membrane and joint capsule
What is the articular cartilage?
Between the two bones
Glide past each other easily
What is the synouial membrane?
Secrets fluid known as synouial fluid that acts like a lubricant
Cuts down on friction
What is the joint capsule?
Fibrous CT
Reinforces with ligaments
What are the different kinds of synouial joints?
1) ball and socket
2) hinge joint
3) pivot joint
4) condylar joint
What is the ball and socket joint?
Move in any direction
Ex: femur connecting to pelvis
What is a hinge joint?
Moves in a single plane
Like a door
Ex: elbow joint and knee
What is a pivot joint?
Rotation motion
Ex: finger tip moving
Connection between atlas (C1) and axis (C2)
What is the condylar joint?
Oval shape articular surface fitting into a depression of some sort
Ex: occipital condyle—- yes action
What is synarthrosis?
No movement at all
Ex: sutures in the skull
What is amphiarthrosis?
Slight movement
Ex: pubic synthesis— the movement in child birth
What is diarthrosis?
Freely moveable joints
Ex: synouial joints
What is flexion?
Flexing
Reducing angle between 2 bones
Any movement that brings body forward
What is extension?
Extend
Increasing angle between 2 bones
Any movement that brings body towards the back
What is abduction?
Moving body part away from the midline
What is adduction?
Moving body part towards the midline
What is circumduction?
All 4 movements (flexion, extension, abduction, adduction) in one sequence
One part is fixed and not moving
End of body part traces circle
What is prone?
Laying on stomach
