chapter 5 continuation

What are joints?

Contact point between 2 or more bones or a bone and tooth

what are the two types of essential functions of joints?

Facilitate skeletal mobility and provide structural stability

What are the 3 types of fibrous joints?

Sutures, gomphoses, syndesmoses

The fibrous joints are bounded by what?

Collagen fibers of dense connective tissue

Fibrous joints are always ?

Syrothrosys and arthronysosis

What is cartilaginous joints?

Bones are bound by cartilage

What does cartilage does to cartilaginous joints ?

Provides stability

Cartilaginous joints are always classified as?

Synratnrosis or antrosys

What is synovial joints?

freely movable joints that allow your bones to move in different directions.

What are the three types of fibrous joints

Sutures, gomphoses and syndesmoses

What is suture?

Fibrous joints of dense irregular connective tissue found only joining bones of the skull

What does suture do?

Provides stability to the skull but allows no movement

What is gomphoses

fibrous joints that hold your teeth in their sockets in the jawbone.

What is periodontal ligament?

Dense irregular connective tissue that glued teeth firmly to their bony socket

What is syndesmoses?

Allows slightly movement. Fibrous joints connecting bones via ligaments made of dense irregular connective tissues

What is interosseous membranes?

are strong sheets of fibrous connective tissue that connect two bones and help keep them together.

Cartilaginous joints are?

Bones found by cartilage

What is synchondroses

Cartilaginous joints where bones are bound by hyaline cartilage

Synchondroses make any movement?

No

Hyaline cartilage can?

Ossify ( be replaced by bone)

what is symphyses?

are cartilaginous joints where two bones are connected by fibrocartilage, allowing slight movement.

Synovial has movement?

Yes

What is synovial fluid?

Viscous liquid serving as a lubricant and shock absorber

What is synovial cavity?

A space between bones that stores synovial fluid

What is articular cartilage?

Hyaline cartilage that covers end of synovial joint bones

The greter the range of motion the ?

Less stable the joint is

What is synarthroses

Immovable joints

What is amphiarthroses?

Slightly movable joints

Diarthroses

Free movable joints

Where are the joints located that are immovable and slight movable?

In the axial skeleton

What is the fibrous joint?

bones joined by fibrous tissue
