NERVOUS TISSUES

34
Q

Immovable or fixed joints
* These joints are held together by tough tissue which develops during childhood.

A

(Fibrous)

35
Q

Slightly moveable joints
* Here, movement is needed but only to a certain point e.g the vertebral column
* Individual vertebrae are separated by cartilage

A

(Cartilaginous)

36
Q

* These joints are also called synovial and allow movement to take place.
* There are 6 types of freely moveable or synovial joints

A

(Synovial)

37
Q

Types of Synovial Joints

A

  • Gliding Joint
  • Saddle Joint
  • Condyloid Joint
38
Q

 Of all the joints in the body, the _______ JOINT allows the GREATETS RANGE of movement
 In this type of joint, one end of the bone is shaped like a ball, and it fits into a hollow socket at
the end of another joint.
 Held together by ligaments and tendons
 EXAMPLES: Shoulder & Hip Joints

A

BALL AND SOCKET

39
Q

 __________ allow extensive flexion and extension (Bending and straightening) with only a SMALL AMOUNT OF ROTATION.
 The joint is made by the joining of two bone ends which have smooth surfaces. They are shaped to move AGAINST EACH OTHER with minimum friction.
 Strong ligaments stop the bones from sliding off from one side to the other
 Examples: Elbow and Knee Joints

A

HINGE JOINTS

40
Q

________ allow only rotation.
* The joint works by the end of one bone having a “peg” which fits into a “ring” formed by the other bone.
* There is _____ at the top of the spinal column, between the axis and atlas bones of the neck. This allows us to TURN, raise and lower our heads – this is crucial in controlling balance and maintaining awareness.

A

PIVOT JOINTS

41
Q
  • _________ allow flexion and extension through a slight gliding motion between the
    ends of small bones such as hands and feet.
  • These small bones can move over one another to increase the flexibility of the hands and
    feet.
  • Strong ligaments link them together and stop them moving to far.
A

GLIDING JOINTS

42
Q
  • _______ occur where concave and convex surfaces meet.
  • The _____ allow the movement of the joint forward and backwards, and right to left.
  • Examples include the fingers and thumbs.
A

SADDLE JOINTS

43
Q
  • Within the ______ the full convex shape of one bone end, fits into the full concave shape of an adjoining bone.
  • This allows for movement in all directions, however full rotations.
  • The main example is the wrist.
A
