1
oints are connected by hyaline cartilage and have no joint cavity.
2
oints are multiaxial. They are the most flexible of the joints in the body and provide almost complete rotation on all axes and planes
3
term used to describe the limits at which a particular joint can move. It is affected by a number of factors including the shape of the articular surfaces, the strength and laxity of the surrounding capsule and ligaments, and the action and strength of the surrounding muscles.
4
joints are biaxial. This joint is formed by the oval, convex condyle of one bone fitting into the oval, concave depression of the opposing bone
5
oints have a synovial, fluid-filled cavity that surrounds the articulating bones.
6
Joint connected by dense connective tissue and have no joint cavity.
7
joints are biaxial. These joints are formed between two bones that possess both concave and convex surfaces
8
joints are uniaxial. Their articular surfaces are relatively flat, and they slide over each other from side to side
9
Where two or more bones meet
10
This joint consists of a bony pivot or projection that articulates with an osteoligamentous ring. Pivot joints function by rotating the bone around its own long axis.
11
joints are uniaxial. Their movement is restricted to one plane by the shape of the opposing articular surfaces, as well as by the strong collateral ligaments along the sides of the joint
