joints structure and function

QuestionAnswer
examples of symphysis (stucture is cartilage) intervertebral disc and symphysis pubis
function of hyaline cartilage cartilage designed for compression
define synchondrosis bones that are joined by hyaline cartilage only
example of synchondrosis epiphyseal plates
funtions of articular cartliage reduce friction
hyaline cartilage contains no nerves or blood vessels
bursae prevents bones from bumping
examples of a pivot joint are prox radius/ulna
Diarthroses function freely movable (synovial joints)
Amphiarthroses function slight movement (intervertebral discs)
Synarththoses function no movement (sutures, teeth)
Fibrous joints (name 3 ssg) sutures,syndesmoses,gomphsis
Plane joints allow short gliding movement
Ball and socket joints allow multiaxial movement
Example of saddle joint the carpometacarpal (meat) joint of the thumb.
Saddle joints allow side to side and back & forth
Example of condyloid joints knuckles
Condyloid joints allow side to side, back & forth
Example of pivot joint axis/atlis C1-C2
Pivot joints allow lateral rotation
Examples of plane joints include intertarsal
Examples of hinge joints are the: elbow knee
Hinge joints allow angular movement
the cartilagenous structure of the Symphysis joint is intervertebral dics
the cartilagenous structure of the Synchondroses joint is epiphyseal plates
the fibrous structure of the sydesmoses joint is distal tibia/fibia
name 6 shapes of synovial joints pivot,ball-n-socket,hindge, condyloid,saddle,plane
3 factors of tendon sheaths muscle tone, ligaments, fit of articular surface
What is Arthrology study of joints
joints are classified by structure and function
articulation means where parts of skeleton meet
Define metabolism the rate at which oxygen converts nutrients to energy
fibrous joints sutures, gomphosis, and syndesmosis
sutures, syndesmoses, gomphosis
sutures bone edges interlock or overlap each other and are connected by a ligament or membrane
gomphosis bones fit together like peg in a hole is the tooth
syndesmoses bones are connected by a ligament or membrane that allows some movement. examples are radius and ulna, tibia and fibula
Synarthroses has two categoies fibrous and cartilaginous joints
2 types of cartilagious joints symphysis and syndhondrosis
examples of symphysis (stucture is cartilage) intervertebral disc and symphysis pubis
function of hyaline cartilage cartilage designed for compression
synchondrosis bones that are joined by hyaline cartilage only
components of synovial joints are articular catilage, joint capsule, synovial fluid, ligaments and burae sacs
articular cartilage is smooth layer on the surface of the bone
examples of synchondrosis between the sternam and the 1st rib.
3 function classification of joints are synarthroses,amphiarthroses,diarthroses
name structure connected by ligaments (varies)ex: distal fibia/tibia sydesmoses
all these joints are diarthroses synovial joints
components of synovial joints are articular catilage, joint capsule, synovial fluid, ligaments and burae sacs
funtions of articular cartliage thin smooth layer on the surface of the bones
hyaline cartilage contains no nerves or blood vessels
bursae sac of synovial fluid used to reduce friction between moving tissues
Diarthroses function freely movable (synovial joints)
Amphiarthroses function slightly movable (ribs)
Synarththoses function immovable joints ( skull)
Fibrous joints (name 3 ssg) Sutures, sydesmoses,gomphoses
Plane joints allow gliding or sliding
Ball and socket joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, adduction,circumduction and rotation
Example of saddle joint the carpometacarpal (meat) joint of the thumb.
Saddle joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, adduction and circumduction.
Example of condyloid joints The wrist & joints of the fingers and toes.
Condyloid joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, adduction and circumduction
Example of pivot joint Atlas/axis c1 & c2
Pivot joints allow rotation on long axis (prox radious) round end fit into ring
Examples of plane joints include intertarsal (short gliding movement)
Examples of hinge joints are the: elbow knee
Hinge joints allow flexion and extension (cylindical end fits into trough shape of other)
the structure of the Symphysis joint is intervertebral dics
the structure of the Synchondroses joint is epiphyseal plates
the structure of the sydesmoses joint is distal tibia/fibia
name 6 shapes of synovial joints pivot,ball-n-socket,hindge, condyloid,saddle,plane
2 factores of tendon sheaths muscle tone, ligaments, fit of articular surface
What is Arthrology study of joints
joints are classified by structure and function
articulation means where parts of skeleton meet
Define metabolism the rate at which oxygen converts nutrients to energy

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
