New cards

What is true about synovial joints?

Separated by fluid-containing joint cavity

30
New cards

What is not true about synovial fluid?

What structure of a synovial joint is a band-like ligament?

Reinforcing ligament

(ex Knee joint)

34

All influence the stability of synovial joints except?

Bursae

35
New cards

What joint is multiaxial w/ a hemispherical head?

Ball & socket

36
New cards

What synovial joint movement where 2 surfaces slide past each other?

Gliding

37
New cards

Bursitis is caused by?

Friction & Fall on knee

38
New cards

Arthroplasty is?

Replacement of a diseased joint with prothesis

New cards

Where is cartilaginous symphysis articulation?

Between the pubic bone

43
New cards

Do osetocytes divide?

No

44
New cards

What do osteoblasts do?

Perform osteogenesis & build bone

45
New cards

What do osteoclasts do?

Breakdown bone matrix

46
New cards

What are osteoprogenitor cells?

Stem cells that undergo mitosis (Pre-Osteoblasts)

47
New cards

What is step 1 & 2 of Integument repair?

Bleeding occurs & Mast cells trigger an inflammatory response

48
New cards

What is step 3 & 4 of Integument repair?

A scab stabilizes & protects area then fibroblasts produce scar tissue

49
New cards

What is step 5 & 6 of Integument repair?
