Question
Answer
What are Fibrous Joints?   Articulating bones fastened together by thin layer of dense connective tissue containing many collagenous fibers.  
🗑
What are the three different types of Fibrous Joints?   Syndesmosis, Suture, and Gomphosis.  
🗑
What is a Syndesmosis (Fibrous) Joint?   Bones bound by interosseous ligament.  
🗑
What is a Suture (FIbrous) Joint?   Flat bones united by sutural ligament.  
🗑
What is a Gomphosis (Fibrous) Joint?   Cone-shaped process fastened in tbony socket by periodontal ligament.  
🗑
What is a Cartilaginous Joint?   Articulating bones connected by hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage.  
🗑
What are the Two different types of Cartilaginous Joints?   Synchondrosis and Symphysis  
🗑
What is a Synchondrosis (Cartilaginous) Joint?   Bones united by bands of hyaline cartilage.  
🗑
What is a Symphysis (CArtilaginous) Joint?   Articular surfaces separated by thin layers of hyaline cartialge attached to band of fibrocartilage.  
🗑
What is a Synovial Joint?   Articulating bones surrounded by a joint capsule of ligaments and synovial membranes; ends of articulating boones covered by hyaline cartilage and separated by synovial fluid.  
🗑
What are the Six different types of Synovial Joints?   Ball-and-Socket, Condyloid, Gliding, Hinge, Pivot, and Saddle.  
🗑
What is a Ball-and-Socket (Synovial) Joint?   Ball-shaped head of one bone articulates with cup-shaped socket of another.  
🗑
What is a Condyloid (Synvoial) Joint?   Oval-shaped condyle of one bone articualtes with eliptical cavity of another.  
🗑
What is a Gliding (Synovial) Joint?   Articulating surfaces are nearly flat or slightly curved.  
🗑
What is a Hinge (Synovial) Joint?   Convex surface of one bone articulates with concave surface of another.  
🗑
What is a Pivot(Synovial) Joint?   Cylindical surface of one bone articulates with ring of bone and fibrous tissue.  
🗑
What is a Saddle (Synovial) Joint?   Articulating surfaces have both concave and convex regions; surface of one bone fits the complementary surface of another.  
🗑
What are the 17 Types of Joint Movements?   Flexion, Entension, HyperExtension, DorsiFlexion, Plantar Flexion, Abduction, Adduction, Rotation, Circumduction, Supination, Pronation, Eversion, Inversion, Protraction, Retraction, Elevation, and Depression.  
🗑
What is Flexion?   Bending parts at a joint so that the angle between them decreases and the parts come closer together.  
🗑
What is Extension?   Straightening parts at a joint so that the angle between them increase and the parts move farther apart.  
🗑
What is HyperExtension?   Excess extension of the parts at a joint, beyond the anatomical position.  
🗑
What is DorsiFlexion?   Bending the foot at the ankle toward the shin.  
🗑
What is Plantar Flexion?   Bending the foot at the ankle toward the sole.  
🗑
What is Abduction?   Moving a part away from the midline.  
🗑
What is Adduction?   Moving a part toward the midline.  
🗑
What is Rotation?   Moving a part around an axis.  
🗑
What is Circumduction?   Moving a part so that its end follows a circular path.  
🗑
What is Supination?   Turning the hand so the palm is upward or facing anteriorly.  
🗑
What is Pronation?   Turning the head so the palm is downward or facing posteriorly.  
🗑
What is Eversion?   Turning the foot so the sole faces latterally.  
🗑
What is Inversion?   Turning the foot so the sole faces medially.  
🗑
What is Protraction?   Moving a part forward.  
🗑
What is Retraction?   Moving a part backward.  
🗑
What is Elevation?   Raising a part.  
🗑
What is Depression?   Lowering a part.  
🗑
