classification of funcional joints
freely movable
has synovial cavity that seperates the articulating bones
has articular cartilage covering the end of the bones
has articular capsule the surrounds joint and encloses the synovial cavity
Term
articular capsule
Definition
divided into the fibrous capsule and the synovial capsule
Term
fibrous capsule
Definition
outermost division of the articular capsule
permits movement but resists dislocation
may be arranged in parallel bundles (ligaments)
Term
ligaments
Definition
extracapsular
intracapsular
Term
synovial membrane
Definition
innermost division of the articular capsule
secretes synovial fluid that fills the synovial cavity
may have bursae where skin rubs over bone
