front 1 A gomphosis joint is | back 1 fibrous joint that is a peg-in-socket |
front 2 The cruciate ligaments of the knee prevent | back 2 hyperextension of the knee |
front 3 Articular cartilage found at the ends of the long bones serves to | back 3 provide a smooth surface at the ends of synovial joints. |
front 4 A symphysis joint is united by dense fibrocartilaginous tissue that | back 4 usually permits a slight degree of movement. |
front 5 Syndesmosis joint is | back 5 fibrous connective tissue |
front 6 Connective tissue sacs lined with synovial membranes that act as cushions in places where friction develops are called | back 6 bursae |
front 7 Amphiarthroses are | back 7 articulations permitting only slight degrees of movement |
front 8 Synchondroses are | back 8 cartilaginous joints |
front 9 The gliding motion of the wrist uses | back 9 plane joints |
front 10 The ligaments that protect the alignment of the femoral and tibial condyles and limit the movement of the femur anteriorly and posteriorly are called | back 10 cruciate ligaments |
front 11 Bending your head back until it hurts is an example of | back 11 hyperextension |
front 12 All synovial joints are | back 12 freely movable |
front 13 Synarthrotic joints permit essentially | back 13 no movement |
front 14 Fibrous joints are classified as | back 14 sutures, syndesmoses, and gomphoses |
front 15 In symphysis joints the articular surfaces of the bones are covered with | back 15 hyaline cartilage |
front 16 Synovial fluid is | back 16 present in joint cavities of freely movable joints and it contains hyaluronic acid. |
front 17 Synchondroses are | back 17 cartilaginous joints where hyaline cartilage unites the ends of bones |
front 18 Menisci are | back 18 semilunar cartilage pads located in the knee |
front 19 Gliding movements occur at the | back 19 intercarpal and intertarsal joints. |
front 20 Abduction is | back 20 moving a limb away from the median plane of the body along the frontal plane |
front 21 The terms inversion and eversion pertain only to the | back 21 feet |
front 22 The hip joint is a good example of a | back 22 multiaxial synovial joint |
front 23 Rotation movements do not | back 23 increase or decrease the angle between bones |
front 24 Compared to the shoulder, displacements of the hip joints are rare because of the | back 24 ligament reinforcement. |
front 25 The Patellar ligament of the knee initiates the | back 25 knee-jerk reflex when tapped |
front 26 Football players often sustain lateral blows to the extended knee | back 26 The medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate ligaments are damaged as a result. |
front 27 Pointing the toes is an example of | back 27 plantar flexion |
front 28 The annular ligament surrounds the | back 28 head of the radius |
front 29 Presence of a synovial cavity, articular cartilage, synovial membrane, and ligaments are characteristics of a | back 29 hinge joint |
front 30 Extracapsular ligaments stabilizing the knee include lateral and medial collateral ligaments preventing | back 30 lateral or medial angular movements |
front 31 Joints develop in parallel with | back 31 bones |
front 32 An example of an interosseous fibrous joint is | back 32 the radius and ulna along its length |
front 33 Angular movements can best be described as | back 33 they change (increase or decrease) the angle between two bones. |
front 34 Saddle joints have concave and convex surfaces | back 34 Carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is a saddle joint of the skeleton. |
front 35 Tendon sheaths act as | back 35 friction-reducing structures |
front 36 Tendon sheath is not a part of the | back 36 synovial joint |
front 37 The number of bones in the joint is not a factor that contributes to | back 37 keeping the articular surfaces of diarthroses in contact. |
