Classification of joints
Fibrous joints( sutures, syndesmosis, gomphosis)
Cartilaginous joints
(Primary cartilaginous- hyaline cartilage)
(Secondary cartilaginous- fibrocartilage)
Synovial joints (Pivot, plane, ball& socket, hinge, saddle, condyloid)
Synovial joint
Joint cavity (Synovial fluid)
Articular cartilage
(Hyaline cartilage supplied by synovial fluid)
Articular capsule
(Fibrous synovial membrane)
Muscle organisation
Muscle- fascicles- muscle fibres- myofibril- sarcomere
Functions of skeletal muscles
Agonist muscle: muscles that responsible for a movement
Antagonist muscle: muscle that opposes the action of agonist muscles
Synergist muscle: muscles that assist movement
Stabilisers: muscles that are dynamic stabiliser of a joint
Shunt: muscles that resist dislocating forces at joint
Motor unit
Motor neuron + muscle fibres
