The articulation between the root of a tooth and the alveolar process of the mandible or maxilla is called the
suture
gomphosis
synchondrosis
symphysis
Immovable joints are called
synarthroses
amphiarthroses
diarthroses
none of the above
The radioulnar articulation is classified at which type of articulation?
syndesmosis
diarthrosis
The most movable joints in the body are
sutures
synovial joints
synchondroses
An example of a symphysis is
the articulation between the pubic bones
the articulation between the bodies of adjacent vertebrae
The inner surface of the joint capsule is lined with
bursae
a joint cavity
periosteum
synovial membrane
The joint that allows for the widest range of movement is a ball-and-socket gliding saddle hinge( ball-and-socket, gliding, saddle, hinge ) joint.
An example of a pivot joint is the
first metacarpal articulating with the trapezium
humerus articulating with the trapezium
interphalangeal joints
head of the radius articulating with the ulna
Diarthrosis and synovial joint refer to basically the same structure
The elbow joint is a ball-and-socket joint
The ability to oppose the fingers and thumb is achieved by a saddle joint.
Articulation and joint are synonymous terms.
Diarthrotic joints are the least common type of joint in the body.
There are several examples of suture articulations throughout the entire body.
Menisci are composed of hyaline cartilage.
The shoulder joint a ball-and-socket joint.
Joint between bodies of vertebrae
symphysis pubis
hip joint
fibrous joint
immovable joint
diiarthroses
cartilaginous joint
thumb
syniarthroses
joints between skull bones
freely movable joint
synovial joint
slightly movable join
The most prevalent type of joint in the body
Ball and socket: ❌, ❌ Condyloid: ❌ Gliding: ❌, ❌ Hinge: ❌, ❌ Pivot: ❌, ❌ Saddle: ❌
The glenoid labrum is associated with which joint?
hip
knee
shoulder
vertebral
Perhaps the strongest ligament in the body is the
rotator cuff
iliofemoral
pubofemoral
intertrochanteric
The largest and most complex joint of the body is the
ankle
The anterior cruciate ligament of the knee connects the
anterior tibia with the posterior femur
posterior tibia with the anterior femur
anterior fibula with the posterior femur
anterior fibula with the anterior femur
Vertebral bodies are connected by
the anterior longitudinal ligament
the posterior longitudinal ligaments
the ligamentum flavum
Protrusion of the nucleus pulposus through the annulus fibrosus results in
bursitis
housemaid's knee
herniated disk
The medial and lateral menisci are
ligaments
cartilage
Joint mice are structurally
impinged bursae
loose pieces of synovial membrane
loose pieces of articular cartilage
cracks in the articular cartilage
❌: instrument that measures range of motion ❌: lifting the arms away from the midline ❌: turning the head as to say "no" ❌: elbow movement, as when lifting weights during a "bicep curl" ❌: increasing joint angle ❌: moving beyond extension ❌: causes extension of the leg as a whole ❌: turning sole of foot inward ❌: opening your mouth ❌: bringing fingers together
Freely movable joints are diarthroses amphiarthroses( diarthroses, amphiarthroses ).
The sutures in the skull are synarthrotic amphiarthrotic( synarthrotic, amphiarthrotic ).
All diarthrotic amphiarthrotic( diarthrotic, amphiarthrotic ) joints have a joint capsule, a joint cavity, and a layer of cartilage over the ends of the two adjoining bones.
Ligaments tendons( Ligaments, tendons ) grow out of periosteum and attach two bones together.
The articular cartilage epiphyseal cartilage( articular cartilage, epiphyseal cartilage ) cushions surfaces of bones.
Gliding joints are the least most( least, most ) movable of the diarthrotic joints.
The knee is the largest smallest( largest, smallest ) joint.
Hinge joints allow motion in two four( two, four ) directions.
The saddle joint at the base of each of our thumbs allows for greater mobility strength( mobility, strength ).
When you rotate your head, you are using a pivot gliding( pivot, gliding ) joint.
A uniaxial joint is a synovial joint.
Joints identified as synchondroses are synovial joints.
Inflammation of the bursa is referred to as pleurity.
The main bursa of the shoulder joint is the subdeltoid bursa.
Angular movements change the size of the angle between articulating bones.
Pronation is a circular movement.
Gliding movements are the most complex of movements.
Protraction is an angular movement.
Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is more common in boys.
The knee joint has a "baker's dozen," or 13, bursae, which serve as protective pads around it.
