- In general, the most important factor(s) determining the stability of synovial joints is (a) interlocking shapes of the articular surfaces; (b) reinforcing ligaments; (c) ligaments and muscle tone; (d) synovial fluid, which acts like glue; (e) the body’s wrapping of skin, which holds the limbs together.arrow_forwardThe _____ and _____ are hip flexors that originate on the pelvis and lumbar vertebrae and converge on a shared tendon that ends on the lesser trochanter of the femur.arrow_forwardMatch the joint types in the key to the descriptions that apply to them (More than one joint type might apply.) Key: (a) fibrous joints (b) cartilaginous joints (c) synovial joints__(1) have no joint cavity__(2) types are sutures and syndesmoses__(3) dense connective tissue fills the space between the bones__(4) almost all joints of the skull__(5) types are synchondroses and symphyses__(6) all are diarthroses__(7) the most common type of joint in the body__(8) nearly all are synarthrotic__(9) shoulder, hip, knee, and elbow jointsarrow_forward
- A) Identify the movements the arrows A and B point to.. B) Which joint do these movements occur at? A B (g) Ankle joint & This is a foot with arrow A showing the foot moving upwards and arrow B showing the foot moving downwards.arrow_forwardFollowing the convex - concave rule, when the convex surface of the joints moves, the arthrokinematics movement within the joint occurs____.arrow_forwardSynovial joints are more freely moveable than fibrous or cartilaginous joints explain this observation. You may use diagrams to support your explanations.arrow_forward
- True or False the pivot joint allows movement in one direction.arrow_forwardThe description “Articular surfaces deep and secure; capsule heavily reinforced by ligaments and muscle tendons; extremely stable joint” best describes (a) the elbow joint, (b) the hip joint, (c) the knee joint, (d) the shoulder joint.arrow_forwardThe factors that influence the stability of a synovial joint include (a) Shape of articular surfaces (b) Presence of strong reinforcing ligaments (c) Tone of surrounding muscles (d) All of thesearrow_forward
