Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/synjoints) to see an animation of synovial joints in action. Synovial joints are places where bones articulate with each other inside of a joint cavity. The different types of synovial joints are the ball-and-socket joint (shoulder joint), hinge joint (knee), pivot joint (atlantoaxial joint, between C1 and C2 vertebrae of the neck), condyloid joint (radiocarpal joint of the wrist), saddle joint (first carpometacarpal joint, between the trapezium carpal bone and the first metacarpal bone, at the base of the thumb), and plane joint (facet joints of vertebral column, between superior and inferior articular processes). Which type of synovial joint allows for the widest ranges of motion?
The procedure that stiffens a joint by joining two bones is _______________. This is also known as surgical ankylosis.
Condyloid joints ________. are a type of ball-and-socket joint include the radiocarpal joint are a uniaxial diarthrosis joint are found at the proximal radioulnar joint
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/flexext) to learn more about the flexion and extension of the knee, as the femur both rolls and glides on the tibia to maintain stable contact between the bones in all knee positions. The patella glides along a groove on the anterior side of the distal femur. The collateral ligaments on the sides of the knee become tight in the fully extended position to help stabilize the knee. The posterior cruciate ligament supports the knee when flexed and the anterior cruciate ligament becomes tight when the knee comes into full extension to resist hyperextension. What are the ligaments that support the knee joint?
The ankle joint ________. is also called the subtalar joint allows for gliding movements that produce inversion/eversion of the foot is a uniaxial hinge joint is supported by the tibial collateral ligament on the lateral side
Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/shoulderjoint1) for a tutorial on the anatomy of the shoulder joint. What movements are available at the shoulder joint?
What is the defining feature of a synovial joint?
The movement during which the knees or elbows are bent to decrease the angle of the joints is known as _______________.
Watch this animation (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/hipreplace) to observe hip replacement surgery (total hip arthroplasty), which can be used to alleviate the pain and loss of joint mobility associated with osteoarthritis of the hip joint. What is the most common cause of hip disability?
