Fibrous Joints

Joint Classification

Socket depth has a large impact on the stability of ball-and-socket joints. In fact, the main contributor to hip joint stability is the exceptionally deep socket of the joint. Joints that have shallow sockets, like the jaw joint (temporomandibular joint), are less stable and thus, easily dislocated.

The depth of the socket in a ball-and-socket joint does NOT usually affect joint stability.

Joints between the ribs and sternum are connected by cartilage and are thus cartilaginous joints.

Which of the following is NOT a synovial joint?

Gomphoses are fibrous joints. Symphyses and synchondroses are cartilaginous joints. Pivot joints are classified as synovial joints.

Which of the following is classified as a fibrous joint?

Match the key terms to the appropriate descriptions.
Key:

a. fibrous joints
b. cartilaginous joints
c. synovial joints


 _____    (1) exhibit a joint cavity
 _____    (2) types are sutures and syndesmoses
 _____    (3) bones connected by collagen fibers
 _____    (4) types include synchondroses and symphyses
 _____    (5) all are diarthrotic
 _____    (6) many are amphiarthrotic
 _____    (7) bones connected by a disc of hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage
 _____    (8) nearly all are synarthrotic
 _____    (9) shoulder, hip, jaw, and elbow joints

Joints and Articulations : Classification Structure (08:06)

All joints of the limbs and most joints of the body are synovial joints.

All joints of the limbs are classified as __________ joints.

The sutures between the skull bones are fibrous joints and do not have a joint space.

Gomphoses are the fibrous joints between the teeth and the bony alveolar socket in the maxilla, or mandible, and do not contain a joint space.

the distal joint between the tibia and the fibula

The distal joint between the tibia and the fibula is a fibrous joint and does not have a joint cavity.

Which of the following joints has/have a joint cavity?

Structurally, synovial joints are similar; however, they can be further classified based on the movements they allow. The six major categories of synovial joints are: plane, hinge, pivot, condylar, saddle, and ball-and-socket joints.

Cartilaginous Joints

Synovial fluid serves as a lubricant in synovial joints. It also nourishes the articular cartilages in the joint.

The role of synovial fluid is to __________.

Classification of joints

Anatomical characteristics shared by all synovial joints include all except

a. articular cartilage, 
b. a joint cavity, 
c. an articular capsule,
d. presence of fibrocartilage.

The description 'Articular surfaces deep and secure; capsule heavily reinforced by ligaments and muscle tendons; extremely stable joint' best describes

a. the elbow joint, 
b. the hip joint, 
c. the knee joint, 
d. the shoulder joint.

Movement would damage the delicate blood vessels.

The movement of a joint could potentially damage blood vessels by pinching them between the bones.

Blood would prevent production of articular cartilage.

Blood would pool and limit the movement of the joint.

Why are there NO blood vessels inside the joint cavity of synovial joints?

Synovial joints are those in which the articulating bones are separated by a fluid-containing joint cavity. This arrangement permits substantial freedom of movement, and all synovial joints are freely movable diarthroses.

A synovial joint is an example of a(n) __________.

Synovial Joints

Structure of a Synovial Joint

The knuckle joints are typical condylar joints. The shoulder and hip are ball-and-socket joints. The elbow is a hinge joint.

knuckle joint, where the phalanges attach to the metacarpals

Which of the following is a condylar joint?

The shoulder joint is an example of a ball-and-socket joint that is a freely moving synovial joint and is somewhat more movable than the hip ball-and-socket joint.

The joint that permits the greatest range of mobility of any joint in the body is the __________  joint.

Joints: Structure and Types of Motion

One of the structural classifications of joints is “synovial joints.”

One of the structural classifications of joints is “fibrous joints.”

One of the structural classifications of joints is “cartilaginous joints.”

All of the following are structural classifications of joints EXCEPT __________.

In a saddle joint, each articular surface has both concave and convex areas and is shaped like a saddle. The articular areas then fit together. The carpometacarpal joint of the thumb is an example of a saddle joint.

The joint at the base of the thumb is an example of a(n) __________  joint.
