Summary Introduction

To determine:

The name and describe the three types of joints as classified by the range of motion.

Introduction:

Interaction of bones occur, wherever they meet at the articulations or joints. The joints are classified on the basis of their structure or function. Functional basis of classification comes under the range of motion.

Explanation of Solution

The functional classification of joints or the classification of joints on the basis of range of motion is divided into 3 types that are as follows:

1. Freely movable joints: These are also called as synovial joints or diarthrosis, which means “through joints”. These are present in the appendicular skeleton. These are subdivided on the basis of their plane of movement.

2. Slightly movable joints: These are also called as amphiarthrosis, which means “on both sides joint”. It is either, cartilaginous or fibrous. It depends on the type of connections between the two bones (opposing).

3. Immovable joints: These are also called as synarthrosis, which means “together joint”. These joints can be either, cartilaginous or fibrous. It depends on the type of connections between the two bones. The two bones over the time, can even fuse or ossify.

Conclusion

Interaction of bones occur, wherever they meet at the articulations or joints.

The diagram below illustrates a quorum sensing pathway from Staphylococcus aureus. Please answer the following questions. 1. Autoinduction is part of the quorum sensing system. Which promoter (P2 or P3) is critical for autoinduction? 2)This staphylococcus aureus grows on human wounds, causing severe infections. You would like to start a clinical trial to treat these wound infections. Please describe: a) What molecule do you recommend for the trial. Why? b) Your trial requires that Staphylococcus aureus be isolated from the wound and submitted to genome sequencing before admittance. Why? What are you testing for?  3) If a mutation arises where the Promoter P3 is constitutively active, how would that influence sensitivity to AIP? Please explain your rationale. 4) This pathway is sensitive to bacterial cell density. Describe two separate mutation that would render the pathway active independent of cell density. Briefly explain your rationale. Mutation 1 Mutation 2
