Types of Joints & Ligaments and Tendons Slide2
Types of Joints
Joint
: where two or more bones meetJoints and Movement:
Different joints have varying degrees of movement
Three types of joints
-
fibrous joints
-
cartilaginous joints
-
synovial jointsSlide3
Fibrous Joints
Fibrous joints:
Bones that are connected together without gaps. Fibrous joints, movement: Not mobileSlide4
Cartilaginous Joint
Cartilaginous joints:
Bones connected by a small cushion of cartilage. This cartilage acts as a shock absorber, protecting the joint from impact.
Cartilaginous joints and Movement:
Restricted movementSlide5
Synovial Joints
Synovial joints:
Joints where the surface of the bone is covered with a layer of slippery cartilage. Found in the arms and legsSynovial joints and movement:
Joints that move freely
Synovial Membrane:
Found in the joining surface. Secretes a slippery fluids onto the surface of the jointSlide6
Types of Movement
Hinge
A hinge joint allows extension and retraction of an appendage. Found in:
Elbow and kneesSlide7
Types of Movement
Ball and Socket:
A ball and socket joint allows for radial movement in almost any direction. found in
:
hips and shoulders. Slide8
Types of Movement
Gliding
In a gliding or plane joint bones slide past each other. Found in
:
Midcarpal
and
midtarsal
Slide9
Types of Movement
Saddle:
A saddle joint allows movement back and forth and up and down (not rotation).Found in
: Where fingers connect to handSlide10
Types of joints
Pivot:
Pivot joints allow rotation around an axis.
Found in:
neck and forearmsSlide11
Ligaments and Tendons
Ligaments:
Connective tissue that joins bones to other bones.Found in: Ankles, wrists, knees, and handsSlide12
Ligaments and Tendons
Ligaments:
Connective tissue that joins bones to other bones.Found in: Ankles, wrists, knees, and hands
Tendons:
Connective tissue that joins bone to muscle.
Found in:
Where ever muscle and bone connect
.Slide13
Tendons
Brusae
: Fluid filled sacs between bone and tendon. Function of the brusae:
Reduce the rubbing of the tendon on bone
