what is cartilage depend on for health a why? regular activity for the release of synovial fluid
What is a ligament? tough non elastic fibrous tissue that connects bone to bone in a strap like
formation
what does prolonged tension do to ligaments? damages the fibres
what are the 4 main functions of ligaments attaching and connecting bone, joint stability, guiding joint movement,
