We are focusing mainly on synovial joints, because this is the main type of joint that allows you to move your body. Using the diagram below, match the synovial joint structure with its description: -Periosteum E F A G D H- F V [ Choose ] A Friction-reducing hyaline cartilage that covers bone surfaces B Cavity filled with lubricating, nourishing, and shock-absorbing fluid Bands of dense regular connective tissue that connect muscle to bone and help stabilize joints Fluid-filled pocket that reduces friction between joint structures Bands of dense regular connective tissue that connect bones Cushions of fibrous cartilage that help guide joint movement E Protective outer wrapping made of dense irregular connective tissue One of the four body membranes; produces synovial fluid F G [ Choose ] [ Choose ]
Identify the Joints by Structure as either Fibrous, Cartilaginous or Synovial. Based on these, here's what I got: fibrous cartilaginous synovial synovial synovial synovial synovial cartilaginous synovial fibrous  fibrous Will that be the correct way?
The following is not characteristic of all synovial joints? 1)articular disc 2)articular cartilage 3)fibrous capsule 4)Synovial membrane 5)Joint cavity containing synovial fluid
