| Composed of mainly fibroblast-like cells that secrete lubricating fluid | Synovial membrane |
| Pad of articulating cartilage that crosses the entire joint capsule | Articular disc |
| Crescent shape cartilages which adsorb shock and pressure as well as help to guide the bones across each other | Menisci |

| Attaches muscle to bone | Tendon |
| Fibrous sac filled with synovial fluid | Bursa |
| Elongated cylindrical bursae wrapped around a tendon | Tendon sheath |
| Portion of a lever from the fulcrum to the point of effort | Effort arm |
| When synovial fluid is warmed by exercise, it becomes ___ and more easily absorbed by the articular cartilage | Thinner |
| Type of exercise that builds bone mass and strengthens the muscles that stabilize the joints | Weight-bearing |
| Function of a ___ is to produce a gain in the speed, distance or force of a motion | Lever |
| Ratio of output force to input force | Mechanical advantage |
| Fulcrum in the middle; example being the atlantooccipital joint of the neck | 1st-class lever |
| Resistance is in the middle of the effort and the fulcrum | 2nd-class lever |
| Effort is applied between the fulcrum and resistance; paddling a canoe | 3rd-class lever |
| Degrees through which a joint can move | Range of Motion |
| The mandible is a ___ when we open the mouth | 2nd-class lever |
| The mandible is a ___ when we close it to bite off a piece of food | 3rd-class lever |
| Passes through the bone in a direction perpendicular to the plan of movement | Axis of rotation |
| Joint which may move through all three degrees of freedom | Multiaxial joint |
| Joint which only has one degree of freedom | Monoaxial Joint |
| Classes of synovial joints: Shoulder and hip joints | Ball-and-socket |
| Classes of synovial joints: Metacarpophalangeal joints | Condylar |
| Classes of synovial joints: Concave in one direction and convex in the other, sitting on top of one another | Saddle Joint |
| Classes of synovial joints: Found between the carpal bones of the wrist | Plane Joint |
| Classes of synovial joints: Elbow and knee joints | Hinge |
| Classes of synovial joints: Monoaxial joints in which a bone spin on it's longitudinal axis | Pivot joints |
| When one is standing in AP, each joint is said to be in its ___ | Zero position |
| Movement that decreases a joint angle | Flexion |
| Movement that straightens a joint | Extension |
| Further extension of a joint beyond the zero position | Hyperextension |
| Movement of a body part in the frontal plane away from the midline of the body | Abduction |
| Movement in the frontal plane back toward the midline | Adduction |
| Standing with ankles crossed, fingers crossed, etc | Hyperadducted |
| Raising the arm high enough to cross slightly over the front or back of your head | Hyperabduct |
| Movement that raises a body part vertically in the frontal plant | Elevation |
| Lowers a body part in the same plane | Depression |
| Anterior movement of a body part | Protraction |
| Posterior movement | Retraction |
| One end of an appendage remains fairly stationary while the other end makes a circular motion | Circumduction |
| Movement of a bone in which it spins on its longitudinal axis | Rotation |
| Forearm movement that turns the palm to face anteriorly or upward | Supination |
| Forearm movement that turns the palm posteriorly or downward | Pronation |
| Movement to the left or right of the zero position as seen in the mandible | Lateral excursion |
| Tilts the hand toward the little finger | Ulnar flexion |
