Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line

  1. Name the three functional categories of joints.

back 1

Chapter 8

1.Synarthroses

2. Amphiarthroses

3. Diarthroses

front 2

What is the name of the functional joint that is immovable?

back 2

Synarthroses

front 3

What is the name of the functional joint that is slightly moveable?

back 3

amphiarthroses

front 4

What is the name of the functional joint that is freely movable?

back 4

Diarthroses

front 5

  1. Name the three structural categories of joints

back 5

1. Fibrous Joints

2. Cartilaginous Joints

3. Synovial Joints

front 6

Which of the structural joint types is generally considered immovable

back 6

Fibrous Joint

front 7

Which of the structural joint types is generally considered freely movable?

back 7

Synovial Joints

front 8

Which of the structural joint types is considered both rigid and slightly movable?

back 8

Cartilaginous

front 9

Describe what makes a fibrous joint unique (tissue type/cavity/ movement ability)

back 9

- Joined by connective tissue

- No joint cavity

- amount of movement depends on connective tissue length

front 10

What are three types of Fibrous Joints?

back 10

sutures

syndesmoses

gomphoses

front 11

What Joint type is found in the skull?

back 11

Sutures

front 12

Describe the characteristics of the fibrous joint, Sutures?

back 12

- wavy articulating bone edges interlock and the junction is completely filled by a minimal amount of very short connective tissue

- the fibrous tissue ossifies and the skull bones fuse into a single unit as a protective adaptation to protect the brain from damage.

front 13

Describe the characteristics of the fibrous joint, Syndesmoses?

back 13

-the bones are connected by a ligament

- the amount of movement depends on the length of the connective tissue

front 14

Describe the characteristic of the fibrous joint, Gomphoses?

back 14

- A peg-in-socket

- The fibrous connection is the short periodontal ligament

- tooth in its bony alveolar socket

front 15

Describe the cartilaginous joints?

back 15

The articulating bones are united by cartilage.

They lack a joint cavity

front 16

What are the two types of Cartilaginous joints?

back 16

Synchondroses

Symphyses

front 17

Describe a synchondroses Joint and give an example

back 17

a bar or plate of hyaline cartilage unites the bones at a synchondrosis.

epiphyseal plates connecting the diaphysis and epiphysis regions in long bones of children.

front 18

Describe a symphyses joint and give an example

back 18

the articular surfaces of the bones are coved with articular (hyaline) cartilage which in turn is fused to intervening pad or plate or fibrocartilage

it acts as a shock absorber and permits a limited amount of movement at the joit

Ex: intervertebral joints and the pubic symphysis of the pelvis

front 19

What is a synovial Joint

back 19

those in which the articulating bones are separated by a fluid -containing joint cavity.

Allows for freedom of movement .

front 20

What are the five distinguishing features of a Synovial Joint

back 20

1. Articular Cartilage

2. Joint (synovial ) Cavity

3. Articular Capsule

4. Synovial Fluid

5. Reinforcing Ligaments
