◉ cartilaginous joints. Answer: allow only slight movement and
consist of bones connected entirely by cartilage
◉ synchondrosis joint. Answer: Bones are joined by Hyaline cartilage
only ex: Epiphyseal plate
◉ symphysis. Answer: two bones joined by fibrocartilage ex: Pubic
symphysis
◉ suture joint. Answer: immovable joint, such as between the bones
of the skull
◉ syndesmoses joint. Answer: More dense fibrous CT than a suture
ex: Gomphosis
◉ interosseous joint. Answer: sheet of dense fibrous connective tissue
Ex: between radius and ulna
,◉ syntharoses joints. Answer: Allows no movement ex: Suture,
gomphosis
◉ Amphiarthroses. Answer: slightly movable joint
ex. pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs
◉ Diarthroses. Answer: freely movable joint ex: hip, knee, shoulder,
elbow
◉ epiphyseal cartilage. Answer: The cartilaginous region between the
epiphysis and diaphysis of a growing bone ex: growth plate
◉ bursa. Answer: fluid-filled sac that allows for easy movement of
one part of a joint over another
◉ tendon sheath. Answer: an elongated bursa that wraps completely
around a tendon subjected to friction
◉ gliding joint. Answer: allows one bone to slide over another; found
in wrist and ankles
◉ angular joint. Answer: hyper-extension, extension, flexion, lateral
flexion, adduction, abduction, and circumduction
, ◉ Rotation. Answer: CIRCULAR MOVEMENT AROUND AN
AXIS ex: lateral and medial rotation
◉ Special Joint Movements. Answer: elevation, depression,
protraction, retraction, supination, pronation, inversion, eversion,
dorsiflexion, plantar flexion
◉ plane joint. Answer: side to side movement and back and forth
◉ hinge joint. Answer: Joint between bones (as at the elbow or knee)
that permits motion in only one plane
◉ pivot joint. Answer: the rounded or pointed surface of one bone
articulates with a ring formed partly by another bone and partly by a
ligament
◉ Factors Affecting Contact and Range
of Motion at Synovial Joints. Answer: Structure and shape of the
articulating
bones, Strength and tautness of the joint ligaments, Arrangement and
tension of the muscles, Contact of soft parts, Hormones, Disuse
◉ Mandible. Answer: lower jaw
◉ Maxilla. Answer: upper jaw
