What are joints/articulation?

A joint or articulation is the place where two or more bones come together.

2
New cards

Job of the joints?

to hold the skeleton together and allow mobility.

4 Structures of a synovial joint

  1. Articular cartilage - end of long bones. covered in thin layer of hyaline cartilage

  2. Synovial (joint Cavity) - filled with synovial fluid.

    (synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid)

  3. Articular Capsule- the joint is enclosed by a protective, fibrous structure called the articular capsule, which forms a joint cavity.

  4. Reinforcing ligaments - Ligaments that support the joints by holding bone to bone and resisting excess or abnormal joint movements

15
New cards

3 factors that can influence joint stability

  • Articular surfaces - Joints with deeper sockets, like the hip, are more stable because they securely hold the bone in place.

  • Ligaments- More ligaments provide more stability.

  • Muscle tone- Strong muscle tone makes joint more stable

What is bone ossification?

the process by which bone tissue is formed

- either by replacing cartilage or developing directly from connective tissue.

98
New cards

What is intramembranous ossification?

-Bone develops from mesenchyme (embryonic connective tissue)

-Forms flat bones (skull, clavicles) which are mainly spongy bone.

-Multiple ossification centers fuse

99
New cards

what's mesenchyme (embryonic connective tissue)?

the tissue found in embryos that develops into different types of connective tissue in the body, including bone, cartilage, and blood.

100
New cards

what does embryos have to do with bone ossification?

Embryos are where bone ossification begins.

-During early development, the bone starts forming from embryonic connective tissue (mesenchyme) or cartilage, leading to the creation of the skeletal structure.
