EXAM 2 BIO 212 SDSU Questions and
Verified Answers
Tendon - CORRECT ANSWERS -Muscle to bone Dense regular CT
Ligament - CORRECT ANSWERS -bone to bone Dense regular CT
Bursae - CORRECT ANSWERS -Small sacs lined with synovial membrane (leak synovial fluid) &
filled with synovial fluid. Cushions between bone, muscles, tendons. adds cushion — think of
water balloons
Tendon Sheath - CORRECT ANSWERS -Synovial fluid-filled tubular sac wrapped around cord-like
tendon. Cushions tendon when rubbing against bone, muscle, or other tendons.
Menisci - CORRECT ANSWERS -Fibrocartilage (hyaline cartilage with collagen) disc between
bones to allow contouring of synovial joint. in between synovial joints - in knee joint
Fat pad - CORRECT ANSWERS -Pad of fat located around joints for protection & cushion.
Functional joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -Synarthrosis Joints - no movement Amphiarthrosis
Joints - little movement
Diarthrosis Joints - joints that move
Synarthrosis Joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -no movement
Amphiarthrosis joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -little movement
Diarthrosis joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -joints that move
Structural joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -Fibrous Joints - Connected by fibers
Cartilaginous Joints - Connected by cartilage
Synovial Joints - Connected by connected by joint cavity (synovial membrane with synovial
fluid) — all diarthrosis
Fibrous Joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -Connected by fibers
Cartilaginous Joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -Connected by cartilage
Synovial Joints - CORRECT ANSWERS -Connected by connected by joint cavity (synovial
membrane with synovial fluid) — all diarthrosis

Fibrous joint (sutural) - CORRECT ANSWERS -Short fibers connect bones.
No movement allowed (synarthrosis)
Seen in bones of skull (except ear ossicles, teeth & TMJ)
Syndesmosis Joints ("held by bands") (fibrous) - CORRECT ANSWERS -Longer fibers connect
bones.
Little movement (give) allowed (amphiarthrosis) in between tibia and fibula
Seen in long bones arms/legs (interosseous membrane
Gomphosis Joints (fibrous) - CORRECT ANSWERS -Short fibers connect teeth to jaw (alveolus).
