Please Pay My Fuckin Ford Truck paymenTs (Patella, Phalanges, metatarsals, Fibula, Femur, Tarsals, Tibia)
27
what are the 3 types of joint structures
synarthrosis, amphiarthrosis, diarthrosis
28
what is the pneumonic to remember types of joint structures
Stop Asking Dad (Synarthrosis, Amphiarthrosis, Diarthrosis)
29
Synarthrosis (Description, Range of Motion, Example)
(Description: Cartilaginous//Fibrous) (Range of Motion: IMMOVABLE) (Examples: Teeth, Skull, Mandible)
30
Amphiarthrosis (Description, Range of Motion, Example)
(Description: Cartilaginous//Fibrous) (Range of Motion: slight) (Example: Intervertebral Discs, distal tibiofibular joint
31
Diarthrosis (Description, Range of Motion, Example)
(Description: synovial joint) (Range of Motion: Free movement) (Example: Knee, Wrist, Shoulder)
32
what are the different types of structural classifications for Joints
Fibrous, Cartilaginous, Synovial
33
Fibrous Types of Joints
Suture, Gomphosis, Syndesmosis
34
suture (Range of Motion, Example)
(Range of Motion: Immovable) (Example: Skeleton)
35
Gomphosis (Range of Motion, Example)
(Range of Motion: Immovable) (Example: Teeth/ Mandible)
36
syndesmosis (Range of Motion, Example)
(Range of Motion: Slightly Movable) (Example: distal tibiofibular joint)
37
What holds fibrous structures together
connective tissue
38
what are the different types of cartilaginous structural joints
synchondrosis, symphysis
39
synchondrosis (structure, example)
(Structure: hyaline cartilage) (Example: First Rib// Sternum)
40
symphysis (Structure, example)
(Structure: Fibrocartilage) (Example: Intervertebral disc, Pubic Symphysis)
41
what is the most common type of joint
Synovial Joint
42
What are the different types of synovial joints
Pivot, Hinge, Saddle, Gliding, Condyloid, Ball and Socket
43
Pivot Joint (Function, Example)
(Function: Rotation) (Example: Antlantoaxial Joint)
44
Hinge Joint (Function, Example)
(Function: Movment in 1 plane) (Example: Knee)
45
Saddle Joint (Function, Example)
(Function: Movement in 2 plane// axial movmement) (Example: 1st metacarpal// trapezium)
46
Gliding Joint (Function, Example)
(Function: Sliding) (Example: Carpals)
47
Condyloid (Function, Example)
(Function: Move in 2 planes // NO AXIAL MOVMENT) (Example: radiocarpal)
48
Ball and Socket (Function, Example)
(Function: Highest range of motion) (Example: Hip)
