front 3 essentially immovable joints | back 3 fibrous |
front 4 sutures are the most remembered examples | back 4 fibrous |
front 5 charactereized by cartilage connecting the bony portions | back 5 cartilaginous |
front 6 all characterized by a fibrous articular capsule lined with a synovial membrane surrounding a joint cavity | back 6 synovial |
front 7 all are freely movable or diarthrotic | back 7 synovial |
front 8 bone regions are united by fibrous connective tissue | back 8 fibrous |
front 9 include the hip, knee and elbow joints | back 9 synovial |
front 10 Describe the structure and function of the following structures or tissues in relation to a synovial joint: ligament, tendon, articular cartilage, synovial membrane, bursa | back 10 Ligament: Dense fibrous connective tissue; attaches bones together; reinforces joints.

front 11 joint between skull bones | back 11 suture |
front 12 joint between the axis and atlas | back 12 pivot |
front 13 hip joint | back 13 ball and socket |
front 14 intervertebral joints (between articular processes) | back 14 gliding |
front 15 joint between forearm bones and wrist | back 15 condyloid |
front 16 elbow | back 16 hinge |
front 17 interphalangeal joints | back 17 hinge |
front 18 intercarpal joints | back 18 gliding |
front 19 joint between tarsus and tibia/fibula | back 19 hinge |
front 20 joint between skull and vertebral column | back 20 condyloid |
front 21 joint between jaw and skull | back 21 hinge |
front 22 joints between proximal phalanges and metacarpal bones | back 22 condyloid |
front 23 epiphyseal plate of a child's long bone | back 23 synchondrosis |
front 24 a multiaxial joint | back 24 ball and socket |
front 25 Along with the saddle joint, a biaxial joint | back 25 condyloid |
front 26 Along with the pivot joint, a uniaxial joint | back 26 hinge |
front 27 When considering movement, what do all uniaxial joints have in common? | back 27 They allow movment in only one plane |
front 28 When considering movement, what do all biaxial joints have in common? | back 28 They allowmovement in two planes |
front 29 When considering movement, what do all multiaxial joints have in common? | back 29 They allow all angular movement and rotation |
front 30 What characteristics to all joints have in common? | back 30 All consist of bony regions separated by fibrous or cartilaginous connective tissue. |
front 31 Which joints, the hip or the knee, is more stable? Name two important factors that contribute to its stability. | back 31 Hip; Deep socket for femur and strongly reinforced articular capsule |
front 32 Name two important factors that contribute to the stability of the knee. | back 32 menisci and intracapsular cruciate ligaments. |
front 33 Describe how the structure of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) allows us to chew hard candy and hazel nuts. | back 33 The superior compartment of the synovial cavity causes the mandible to glide forward, distributing forces to the stronger articular tubercle (to prevent breakage of the mandibular fossa) |
front 34 During muscle contraction, the [a] moves toward the [b]. | back 34 A.) insertion
|
front 35 What structural joint changes are common to the elderly? | back 35 Degenerative changes (adhesions and bone spurs) begin to "sprout up" in diarthrotic joints; intervertebral discs begin to degenerate. These changes lead to increased joint stiffness and pain. |
front 36 Define sprain and dislocation. | back 36 Sprain: ligaments reinforcing a joint are damaged by excessive stretching, or torn away fromt he bony attachment.
