Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Skin is the largest organ that covers the whole body and protects the internal organs. Tendons and muscles are present underneath the skin which makes a connection between skin and bone. A ligament connects two bones. The synovial membrane secretes synovial fluids, and it surrounds the inner surface of the fibrous capsule. Articular cartilage is present at the furthermost end of the bones where two bones come together to form a joint.
