Chapter 9, Problem 5CR
Summary Introduction
To compare:
A hinge joint and a pivot joint concerning structure, function, and the location within the body.
Introduction:
Synovial joints are the only joints that have a space between the attached bones. This space is called a synovial cavity or joint cavity and is filled with synovial fluid. This fluid lubricates the joint and reduces the friction between the bones for greater movement.
