Published	08/12/2024	distal tibiofibular joint
Published	08/12/2024	between tibia and fibula
Published	08/12/2024	- synchondrosis: bones joined by hyaline cartilage (usually synarthrotic)- symphysis: bones joined by pad of fibrocartilage (usually amphiarthrotic)
Published	08/12/2024	costochondral joints (between ribs and sternal cartilage), epiphyseal plate
Published	08/12/2024	pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs
Published	08/12/2024	- Articular capsule- Outer fibrous membrane- Inner synovial membrane- Synovial capsule- Synovial fluid- Articular cartilage- Ligaments
Published	08/12/2024	- lubricates and nourishes articular cartilage- absorbs shock
Published	08/12/2024	Nutrients enter cartilage through the synovial fluid when it is compressed and relaxes, synovial fluid also removes waste (and from subchondral bone)
Published	08/12/2024	- chondrocytes- collagen (fine type)- Glycosaminoglycans
Published	08/12/2024	ligaments connect bones to bonestendons connect bones to muscle
Published	08/12/2024	sacs outside of synovial joints where ligaments, tendons, or bones rub
Published	08/12/2024	elongated bursae around tendons, particularly in confined areas such as in the wrist and ankle.
Published	08/12/2024	Occurs in plane joints, ie between carpals
Published	08/12/2024	flexion in the coronal plane of the neck and back
Published	08/12/2024	flexion, extension
Published	08/12/2024	flexion, extension, hyperextension
Published	08/12/2024	abduction, adduction
Published	08/12/2024	circumduction
Published	08/12/2024	rotation
Published	08/12/2024	lateral rotation, medial rotation
Published	08/12/2024	pronation, supination
Published	08/12/2024	dorsiflexion, plantar flexion
Published	08/12/2024	inversion, eversion
Published	08/12/2024	uniaxial - move in one plane (elbow), biaxial - move in 2 planes (wrist), multiaxial - moves in 3 planes (shoulder)
Published	08/12/2024	plane,hinge,pivot,condylar,saddle,ball-and-socket
Published	08/12/2024	carpals of the wrist,elbow,atlantoaxial joint (between C1 and C2),knee,metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb,shoulder (glenohumeral)
Published	08/12/2024	The more mobile a joint is, generally, the more unstable. Eg: the shoulder is less stable than the hip joint, but more mobile (which makes sense for t…
