  1. Joints

  2. Parts of the skeletal system • Bones (skeleton) • Joints • Cartilages • Ligaments • Divided into two divisions • Axial skeleton • Appendicular skeleton The Skeletal System

  3. Prefixes, Suffixes

  4. Bone Markings Projections/sites of muscle and ligament attachment Projections/sites that form joints Tuberosity Crest Trochanter Line Tubercle Epicondyle Spine Process Head Facet Condyle Ramus

  5. Fibrous joints • Generally immovable • Cartilaginous joints • Immovable or slightly moveable • Synovial joints • Freely moveable Structural Classification of Joints

  6. Pivot joint • Ball-and-Socket joint • Hinge joint • Ellipsoid joint • Saddle joint • Gliding joint • Text pg 268 ARTICULATIONS

  7. Generic joint

  8. Text pgs. 263 – 268 • SG pgs 98-99 Types of Movements in Synovial Joints

  9. Flexion – • Decrease in angle between anterior surfaces of bones or between knee and toe joints • Gliding – • Simplest kind of movement – slides • Extension – • State of body in Anatomical Position • Abduction – • Movement away from the midline of the body • Rotation – • Movement of body around its own axis • Circumduction – • Cone movement Definitions of Movements

  10. Diseases of Joints

  11. Rheumatism – any painful disorder of the joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments Arthritis – over 100 types Gouty – uric acid Osteoarthritis – wear and tear Rheumatoid arthritis - autoimmune Lyme disease – bacterial disease which causes joint pain, fever, rash Ankylosing Spondylitis – inflammatory condition of unknown origin affects vertebral joints
