| The junction between two bones is called a: | joint |
| The study of the classification, structure and function of joints is called: | Arthrology |
| _____is the study of motion occurring between joint surfaces | Arthrokinematics |
| Range of motion measured with a goniometer which identifies a change in the joint angle is called: | Osteokinematics |
| A joint that allows very little or no movement is called a: | Synarthrotic Joint |
| A joint that allows minimal (partial) movement is called a: | Amphiarthrotic Joint |
| A freely movable joint that allows a significant amount of movement is called a: | Diarthrotic Joint |
| A synovial joint is classified as a: | Diarthrotic Joint |
| The substance that is resilient and functions to absorb shock and prevents direct wear and tear of the bone is called: | Articular Cartilage |
| The _____secretes synovial fluid into the joint cavity | Synovial Membrane |
| A joint that allows movement in one plane and around one axis is called: | Uniaxial Joint |
| The elbow joint is classified as a: | Uniaxial Hinge Joint |
| The radioulnar (forearm) joint is classified as a: | Uniaxial Pivot Joint |
| C1with C2 is classified as a: | Uniaxial Pivot Joint |
| A joint that allows movement in two planes and around two axes is called a: | Biaxial Joint |
| The MP joints of digits 2-5 are classified as a: | Biaxial Ellipsoid / Condyloid Joint |
| The CMC joint of the thumb is classified as a: | Biaxial Saddle Joint |
| A joint that allows movement in three planes and around three axes is called a: | Triaxial/Multiaxial Joint |
| The shoulder is classified as a: | Triaxial/Multiaxial Ball and Socket Joint |
| The hip is classified as a: | Triaxial/Multiaxial Ball and Socket Joint |
| the structure that joins bone to bone is called a: | ligament |
| The function of a ligament is: | to prevent dislocation and to limit motion in undesirable directions |
| A position where surfaces are not in as much contact, some part of the ligaments are slackened (elbow flexion) | Loose packed position |
| A position of maximum contact between articular surfaces; ligaments are maximally taunt. (elbow extension) | Closed packed position |
| Connective tissue that connects the muscle to the bone and are located on the ends of muscles | tendon |
