c. Not all cases of RA result in fluid accumulation, swelling, stiffness, impairment of joint movement, and extreme pain. These factors put stress on the articular cartilage that covers the surfaces of bones at synovial joints, causing the cartilage to gradually become thinner. The articular cartilage has no nerve supply. True B. D) Immovable joints are called amphiarthroses. The correct option is B Cartilaginous joint Cartilaginous joints are connected entirely by cartilage (fibrocartilage or hyaline). It is the most common type of joint found in the human body, and contains several structures which are not seen in fibrous or cartilaginous joints. b. Calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum a. c. tend to run parallel to one another A few synovial joints of the body have a fibrocartilage structure located between the articulating bones. B Synovial joints are enclosed by a capsule. Synovial joints are freely movable and allow for motion at the location where bones meet. Which of the following joints would allow no movement? d. They store glycogen and oxygen, a. The ability of the bones to move smoothly against each other within the joint cavity, and the freedom of joint movement this provides, means that each synovial joint is functionally classified as a diarthrosis. Ischial bursitis occurs in the bursa that separates the skin from the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis, the bony structure that is weight bearing when sitting. How does muscle attach to muscle? In the classification of joints, which of the following is true? A The bones of the joint articulate with each other within the joint cavity. C cartilage A insulin b. a. fibrous b. the triceps brachii is the synergist, and the brachialis is the prime mover A insulin d. Elbow, Osteoarthritis occurs when . Inflammation occurs in the joint, and the fluid that accumulates causes swelling, stiffness, impairment of joint movement, and extreme pain. D epiphyseal discs, Two nutrients that are needed to become part of bone matrix are: By the end of this section, you will be able to: Describe the characteristic features for synovial jointsand give examples. a. diarthroses d. Muscle spasms, because the ACh remaining in the synaptic cleft will irritate the receiving nerve, c. Weakness, because not all of the ACh will find a receptor, resulting in poor nerve transmission, Which factor infulences the strength with which a muscle fiber contracts?
