Chapter 9, Problem 6RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The function of the various components of synovial joints.
Introduction:
Joints are the sitesof attachment fortwo bones. They are classified functionally into synarthroses, amphiarthroses, and diarthroses. Synarthroses are immobile joints, amphiarthroses can be moved slightly, and diarthroses are completely movable joints. On the basis of their structures, joints are classified into fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial joints.

Match the parts of a synovial joint listed in the key to their functions below. (More than one part may apply.)Key: (a) articular cartilage (b) ligaments and fibrous layer of capsule(c) synovial fluid (d) muscle tendon__(1) keeps bone ends from crushing when compressed; resilient__(2) resists tension placed on joints__(3) lubricant that minimizes friction and abrasion of joint surfaces__(4) helps prevent dislocation
Assume that a sharp object penetrated a synovial joint. Given thesestructures:(1) tendon or muscle(2) ligament(3) articular cartilage(4) fibrous capsule (of joint capsule)(5) skin(6) synovial membrane (of joint capsule)Choose the order in which they would most likely be penetrated.a. 5,1,2,6,4,3 d. 5,1,2,4,3,6b. 5,2,1,4,3,6 e. 5,1,2,4,6,3c. 5,1,2,6,3,4
We are focusing mainly on synovial joints, because this is the main type of joint that allows you to move your body.
Using the diagram below, match the synovial joint structure with its description:
