synovial joints Flashcards
what are the 7 types of synovial joints
ball and socket
ellipsoid
plane
hinge
pivot
condylar
saddle
Name the function of the synovial joint:
plane
movement: multi axial
direction: sliding or gliding
example: carpals
Name the function of the synovial joint: pivot
movement: unidirectional
direction: rotation
example: radii ulnar joint
Name the function of the synovial joint:
hinge
movement: unidirectional
direction: flextion extention
example: interflangal joints
Name the function of the synovial joint:
saddle
movement: bidirectional (+)
direction: flextion extention adduction abduction, obligitory rotation
example: caropmetacarpal joint
Name the function of the synovial joint:
ball and socket
movement: multi directional
direction: flextion extention adduction abduction rotation
example: Hip shoulder
Name the function of the synovial joint:
ellipsoid
movement: bidirectional
direction: flextion extention adduction abduction
example: wrist, metocarpalphlangeous joint
Name the function of the synovial joint:
condylar
movement: bidirectional
direction: flextion extention rotation(when flexed)
example:knee
what are connected in synovial joints which mean its a self contained joint.
