Q

Function of tendons?

A

Facilities and controls movement

24
Q

What has more elastin?

A

Tendons are higher then ligaments

25
Q

Tendons help?

A

Contraction

26
Q

Main function of fibrous joints?

A

limit movement and provide stability

27
Q

Main function of cartilaginous joints?

A

Have some movement

28
Q

Tissues vs structures?

A

Tissue= how cells are grouped Structure= something formed of a tissue

29
Q

Synovial Joints

A

Free-moving direction of movement is determined by structure.

30
Q

Synovial Joints location?

A

Found in most most limb joints.

31
Q

What are synovial joint features?

A

The bone ends determine the range of motion.

32
Q

List functions of synovial joints?

A

Found in bone ends, articular cartilage, capsules the joints, secretes synovial fluids, ligaments

33
Q

What covers bone ends?

A

Hyaline cartilage covers bone ends where they articulate and move

34
Q

What membrane lines the inner surface of the joint?

A

Synovial fluid - lubricates the joint

35
Q

Ligaments are found?

A

They hold bones together, Ligaments are tight and thick where more support is required/ vise versa for movement.

36
Q

What does the medial collateral ligament do?

A

Restrict abduction

37
Q

What does the lateral ligament do?

A

Lateral restricts adduction

38
Q

What do intracapsular ligaments do?

A

Restrict movements between bones

39
Q

What is one axes called

A

Uniaxial

40
Q

What is two axes called?

A

Biaxial

41
Q

Multiaxial

A

Many axes

42
Q

What is the ROM determined by?

A

Structure of the joint (bone end shape, ligament location and length, body surface contact)

43
Q

Plane joint is

A

Multiaxial, sliding and gliding, located in flat articular surfaces

44
Q

Hinge joint is

A

Uniaxial, movements are flexion and extension

45
Q

Pivot joint is

A

Uniaxial, movement is rotation

46
Q

Condylar joint

A

Biaxial, flexion and extension, rotation(when flexed)

47
Q

Ellipsoid joint

A

biaxial, same as(condylar) but abducts and adducts NO ROTATION

48
Q

Saddle joint

A

Biaxial, flexion and extension, ab and add

49
Q

Ball and joint socket

A

Multiaxial, flex and extend, abb and add, rotation

50
Q

Bones begin as?

A

Cartilage

51
Q

What is the process of transforming cartilage to bone?

A

Endochondral ossification

52
Q

Bone growth is enabled by

A

Epiphyseal plates, starts out as cartilage

53
Q

What happens from starting puberty?

A

Epiphyses start to fuse with diaphyses.

54
Q

How do bones grow in length

A

Through growth plate

55
Q

How do bones grow in width?

A

Through appositional growth(OB produces circumferential lamellae) OCS(for medullary cavity)
