Fibrocartilage
This is a thin layer of hyaline cartilage that covers the articular surface of a bone
articular cartilage
Fibrous membrane that lines the marrow cavity and osteonal canals of a bone
endosteum
Bones that are relatively thin and expanded in two dimensions
Flat bones
The cylindrical shaft of a long bone between the two epiphysis
Diaphysis
Articulation that permits only limited motion
Amphiarthrosis
A tube-like canal through a bone
Meatus
A tunnel through one or more bones
Canal
A component of diarthrosis that entirely surrounds the joint cavity
joint capsule
The region of the long bone where most of bone growth happens
Epiphyseal cartilage
The orbit is surrounded by portions of the frontal bone and two other bones, which are?
Lacrimal and Zygomatic
This is the rostral opening of the mandibular canal
Mental foramen
This process is the dorsal projection of the vertebral arch

synovial joints that have only a slight gliding movement between relatively flat apposed surfaces
Plane joints
synovial joints that has an articular surface that is expanded more in one direction than another
Ellipsoidal joints
the only bony connection between axial and appendicular skeleton
Sacroiliac joint
this connects the head of the femur with a nonarticular area within the acetabulum
Round ligament
the joint between the distal row of carpal bones and the metacarpus that allows only limited gliding movements
Carpometacarpal joint
the coxofemoral joint is the best example of this type of synovial joint
Spheroid joint
the common insertional tendon of the extensor muscles of the hock
Achilles tendon
the atlantoaxial joint allows which movement of the head
The atlantoaxial joint allows rotation of the head.
these two ligaments form an X as they cross from the tibia to the femur in the middle of the joint
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL).
the type of joint where there is no true bony connection rather held in place by a number of muscles and ligaments
Synsarcosis
