Terms in this set (300)
synovial joints freely movable joints ex: hip, knee, shoulder
allow only slight movement and
consist of bones
cartilaginous joints connected entirely by cartilage
synchondrosis joint Bones are joined by Hyaline cartilage only ex:
Epiphyseal plate
symphysis two bones joined by fibrocartilage ex: Pubic symphysis
suture joint immovable joint, such as between the bones of the skull
syndesmoses joint More dense fibrous CT than a suture ex: Gomphosis
interosseous joint sheet of dense fibrous connective tissue Ex: between radius
and ulna
syntharoses joints Allows no movement ex: Suture, gomphosis
Amphiarthroses slightly movable joint
ex. pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs
Diarthroses freely movable joint ex: hip, knee, shoulder, elbow
epiphyseal cartilage The cartilaginous region between the epiphysis and diaphysis
of a growing bone ex: growth plate
fluid-filled sac that allows for easy movement of one part of
bursa
a joint over another
,tendon sheath an elongated bursa that wraps completely around a tendon
subjected to friction
gliding joint allows one bone to slide over another; found in wrist and
ankles
angular joint hyper-extension, extension, flexion, lateral flexion, adduction,
abduction, and circumduction
Rotation CIRCULAR MOVEMENT AROUND AN AXIS ex: lateral and medial
rotation
Special Joint Movements elevation, depression, protraction, retraction, supination,
pronation, inversion, eversion, dorsiflexion, plantar flexion
plane joint side to side movement and back and forth
hinge joint Joint between bones (as at the elbow or knee) that permits
motion in only one plane
pivot joint 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 Structure and shape of the articulating
and Range of Motion at bones, Strength and tautness of the joint ligaments,
Synovial Arrangement and tension of the muscles, Contact of soft
parts, Hormones, Disuse
Joints
Mandible
lower jaw
Maxilla
upper jaw
, mental foramen
Zygomatic bone
cheek bone
Between parietal and temporal bones
squamous suture
parietal bone of skull
