Q

What 4 features are characteristic of a synovial joint?

A
  1. Articular cartilage - hyaline cartilage (2-3 mm) covering the end of bones to provide a smooth surface 2. Fibrous capsule - on the outside of the joint cavity, continuous with periosteum of the bones 3. Joint cavity - space between bones 4. Synovial membrane - produces synovial fluid

Q

Where are bursae located?

A
