front 1 a point of contact between two bones, between bone and cartilage, or between bone and teeth. | back 1 Joint, also called an articulation or arthrosis |
front 2 The scientific study of joints | back 2 arthrology |
front 3 The study of motion of the human body is called? | back 3 kinesiology |
front 4 There is no synovial cavity, and the bones are held together by dense irregular connective tissue that is rich in collagen fibers | back 4 Fibrous joint |
front 5 There is no synovial cavity, and the bones are held together by cartilage. | back 5 Cartilaginous joints |
front 6 The bones forming the joint have a synovial cavity and are united by the dense irregular connective tissue of an articular capsule, and often by accessory ligaments | back 6 Synovial joints |
front 7 An immovable joint. | back 7 Synarthrosis |
front 8 A slightly movable joint. | back 8 Amphiarthrosis |
front 9 freely movable joint. | back 9 Diarthrosis |
front 10 The three types of fibrous joints are | back 10 sutures, syndesmoses, and interosseous membranes. |
front 11 An immovable fibrous joint that joins skull bones. | back 11 Suture |
front 12 A joint in which the dense fibrous connective tissue that unites bones at a suture has been replaced by bone, resulting in a complete fusion across the suture line. | back 12 Synostosis |
front 13 A fibrous joint in which a cone-shaped peg fits into a socket. | back 13 Gomphosis |
front 14 A slightly movable joint in which articulating bones are united by fibrous connective tissue. | back 14 Syndesmosis |
front 15 a substantial sheet of dense irregular connective tissue that binds neighboring long bones and permits slight movement | back 15 Interosseous membrane |
front 16 is a cartilaginous joint in which the connecting material is hyaline cartilage. | back 16 synchondrosis |
front 17 A cartilaginous joint in which the ends of the articulating bones are covered with hyaline cartilage, but a broad, flat disc of fibrocartilage connects the bones. | back 17 symphysis |
