Term
Rank the 3 joint types from most to least movable.
Definition
1-Diarthrosis
2-Amphiarthrosis
3-Synarthrosis
Term
Hyaline cartilage unites the bones in this joint:
Definition
Synchondrosis
Term
The bones are tightly bound with a minimal amount of fibrous connective tissue:
Definition
Suture
Term
Fibrocartilage unites the bones in this joint:
Definition
Symphysis
Term
The bones are connected by long bands of fibrous connective tissue:
Definition
Syndesmosis
Term
The Epiphyseal plate and 1st costal cartilage are an example of this type of joint:
Definition
Synchondrosis
Term
A joint between skull bones is an example of this type of join:
Definition
Suture
Term
The interosseous membrane is an example of this type of joint:
Definition
Syndesmosis
Term
The intervertebral disc is an example of this type of joint:
Definition
Symphysis
Term
What is the difference between Suture and synostosis?
Definition
A synostosis forms when the fibrous connective tissue in a suture ossifies and the suture closes
Term
Describe what happens during weeping lubrication?
Definition
Weeping lubrication occurs when synovial fluid is squeezed in and out of the cartilage from the pressure of human movement. It lubricates and allows minimal friction
Term
Capsular ligament?
Definition
Thickend parts of the articular capsule
Term
Extracapsular?
Definition
Located just outside the capsule.
ex: fibular and tibial collateral ligaments of the knee.
Term
Intracapsular?
Definition
internal to the capsule.
Ex: anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments in the knee.
Term
A crescent-shaped piece of fibrocartilage found in joints where the articulating bone ends have different shapes:
Definition
Meniscus
Term
A crescent-shaped piece of fibrocartilage found in joints where the articulating bone ends have different shapes:
Definition
Articular disk
Term
A fibrous sac filled with synovial fluid that occur where joint structures rub against each other:
Definition
Bursa
Term
Synovial joint... Define Planar:
Definition
The bone surfaces are flat or only slightly concave and convex.
Term
Synovial joint... Define Hinge:
Definition
A cylindrical convex surface of one bone fits into a cylindrical depression in the other
Term
Synovial joint... Define Pivot:
Definition
The rounded end of a bone fits into a notch in another bone
Term
Synovial joint... Define Condylar:
Definition
An oval convex surface on one bone fits into an oval shaped depression in another
Term
Synovial joint... Define Saddle:
Definition
The convex surface of one bone and the concave surface of the other lie 90 degrees to each other
Term
Synovial joint... Define Ball and Socket:
Definition
A hemispherical convex surface (the head) on one bone fits into a cup-like socket on the other
Term
The fulcrum is located between the load and the effort:
Definition
1st class lever
Term
The load is located between the fulcrum and the effort:
Definition
2nd class lever
Term
The effort is located between the load and the fulcrum:
Definition
3rd class lever
Term
Can 1st class levers operate at a mechanical advantage, mechanical disadvantage, or both? Explain.
Definition
Both.
Mechanical advantage for power.
Mechanical disadvantage for speed and distance.
Term
Can 2nd class levers operate at a mechanical advantage, mechanical disadvantage, or both? Explain.
Definition
Mechanical advantage.
2nd class levers act as a power lever, allowing small muscular efforts to move much larger loads
Term
Can 3rd class levers operate at a mechanical advantage, mechanical disadvantage, or both? Explain.
Definition
Mechanical disadvantage.
3rd class levers place muscle insertions close to the joint providing stability to the joint producing fast, extensive movements, with little shortening of the muscle.
