musculoskeletal Flashcards
Hematopoiesis
bone marrow production of RBC’s, WBC’s, and platelets
fibrous joints
bones untied by fibrous tissue or cartilage and do not move
(sutures in the skull)
Cartilaginous joints
separated by fibrocartilaginous discs and are slightly moveable
(vertebrae)
Synovial joints
freely movable joints separated by one another and enclosed in a cavity lined with synovial membrane that secretes fluid
- surrounded by ligaments
Bursae location
located at areas of potential friction to facilitate movement of muscles and tendons
ligaments
connect bone to bone
Bursa
fluid-filled sac or synovial fluid
cartilage
layer covering surface between opposing bones in a synovial joint
- avascular
Ligaments
fibrous band connecting bone to bone
Tendon
connects bone to muscle
