25
Joints classified by how they’re built
Structural classification
26
Joints classified by movement
Functional classification
27
Three functional classifications of joints
Synarthrosis, Amphiarthrosis, Diarthrosis
28
Functional classification of joint that is not mobile by direct conscious means
Synarthrosis
29
Functional classification of joint that is slightly mobile
Amphiarthrosis
30
Functional classification of joint that is freely mobile
Diarthrosis
31
Are Synarthrosis joints fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial
Can be fibrous or cartilaginous
32
Are Amphiarthrosis joints fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial
Can be fibrous or cartilaginous
33
Are Diarthrosis joints fibrous, cartilaginous, or synovial
All are synovial
34
Examples of synarthorisis joints
eg teeth, cranium
35
Examples of Amphiarthrosis joints
eg intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis
36
Examples of Diarthrosis joints
shoulder, hip
37
Types of diathroses from least to most mobile
Plane, Hinge, Pivot, Condylar, Saddle, Ball-and-socket
38
uniaxial flat joints, eg intercarpal joints
Plane
39
uniaxial joint eg knee
Hinge
40
joint eg C1-C2 joint
Pivot
41
joint eg metacarpal-phalange
Condylar
42
joint eg 1st metacarpal-phalange joint (thumb)
Saddle
43
acetabular, glenohumeral
Ball-and-socket
44
Three structural classifications of joints
Fibrous, Cartilaginous, Synovial
45
Structural classification of joint that has no joint cavity, Joined by ligaments
Fibrous
46
Structural classification of joint that has no joint cavity, joined by cartilage
Cartilaginous
47
Structural classification of joint that have a joint cavity, have hyaline cartilage, have synovial fluid
Synovial
48
Syndesmosis, sutures, gomphosis
Three types of Fibrous structural joints
49
Synchondrosis and Symphysis joints are examples of
Cartilaginous structural joints
50
All synovial joints are what type
diarthrosis
51
Fibrous joints held together by interosseous membrane eg radius-ulna, tibia-fibula
Syndesmosis
52
Fibrous joints that join two fixed plates eg skull joints
Sutures
53
Fibrous joints eg teeth to mandible/maxilla
Gomphosis
54
Cartilaginous joints held together by hyaline cartilage, eg ribs, sternum
Synchondrosis
55
Cartilaginous joints that have fibrocartilage, eg pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs
Symphysis joints
56
lubricates joints, viscous, oily substance secreted by synovial membrane, nourishes, hydrates, and bring nutrients to cartilage
Synovial fluid
57
dense, regular connective tissue, connect bone-to-bone, stabilize, strengthen synovial joints
Ligaments
58
Part of the knee made of fibrocartilage
Meniscus
59
Does cartilage have direct nerve or blood supply
no
60
fluid filled sac, filled with synovial fluid, reservoirs for synovial fluid and padding for tendons
Bursa
61
Between temple and mandible
temporomandibular joint
62
Shoulder joint, between glenoid fossa and humerus
glenohumeral joint
63
Joint that is most mobile and least stable
glenohumeral joint
64
Another name for acetabular joint
coxal joint
65
Arthritis that is wear and tear, degenerative joint disease
osteoarthritis
66
Arthritis that is caused by crystalized uric acid, typically attacks toes first, related to purine metabolism
gout
67
Arthritis that is an autoimmune disorder of the synovial membranes, divided into juvenile and adult RA
rheumatoid arthritis
68
Inflamation of the rib cartilage
costochondritis
69
What is articular cartilage made out of
hyaline cartilage
70
Connect bone to muscle
tendons
71
What are the rotator cuff muscles
distinct muscles and tendons that provide strength and stability during motion of the shoulder
72
What are the intracapsular ligaments of the knee
connect the femur and the tibia
73
What is the tibial collateral ligament
Medial collateral ligament (MCL) on the medial (inner) side of the knee joint in humans
74
What is the fibular collateral ligament
lateral collateral ligament (LCL), located on the lateral (outer) side of the knee
