The Focus Figure of Synovial Joints has examined a number of types of movement and the joints in which they are located. Review the types you have studied, and select a true statement or characteristic of uniaxial movement in a representative joint. View Available Hint(s) The dancer's leg is lifted to a ballet bar. A person bends over, and his or her vertebral processes move past one another. A person curls his or her fingers, and the phalanges flex at the interphalangeal joints. A golfer swings at the ball on the tee.

Which of the following is one difference between bursae and tendon sheaths? Bursae serve as cushioning fat pads between adjacent structures, while tendon sheaths reduce friction between adjacent structures. Bursae are only found in synovial joints, while tendon sheaths are only found in fibrous joints. Bursae contain a thin film of synovial fluid, while tendon sheaths lack synovial fluid altogether. Bursae are flattened fibrous sacs wedged between adjacent structures, while tendon sheaths are elongated fibrous sacs that wrap around tendons.

Bursae are flattened fibrous sacs wedged between adjacent structures, while tendon sheaths are elongated fibrous sacs that wrap around tendons.

Which of the following is a hinge joint? A B E F

F (Interphalangeal joints are hinge joints capable of uniaxial angular movement.)

Why are there NO blood vessels inside the joint cavity of synovial joints? Blood would prevent production of articular cartilage. Movement would damage the delicate blood vessels. Blood would pool and limit the movement of the joint. Hyaluronic acid would react with blood.

Movement would damage the delicate blood vessels.

Part complete Which of the following is true about the shoulder joint? Many muscles cross the glenohumeral joint and limit the mobility of the joint. Ligaments surround the glenohumeral joint on all sides and strengthen the joint. The deepness of the glenoid strengthens the joint overall. The glenohumeral joint is more mobile, making it less stable.

the amount of synovial fluid in the joint cavity

Which of the following joints has/have a joint cavity? the distal joint between the tibia and the fibula gomphoses the knee sutures between the skull bones

the knee (The knee is a synovial joint and, therefore, is composed of a space filled with synovial fluid between the bones that form the joint.)

Which of the following factors would NOT provide stability to a synovial joint? good muscle tone in those muscles that cross the joint ligaments binding the bones together the presence of tendon sheaths and bursae well-fitting articular surfaces between the bones involved in the synovial joint

the presence of tendon sheaths and bursae

Despite having an actual articulation with the humerus, the hinge-like action at the elbow is NOT dependent on the radius. True False

true (The radius articulates with the humerus at the capitulum. However, the humeroulnar joint is responsible for the hinge-like flexion and extension at the elbow. The radius slides over the ulna, creating pronation and supination in the forearm.)
