This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: classification of joints, Synovial Joint (articulation) provide free movement b/w bones they join, Fibrous Joint Synovial Joint (articulation), Fibrous Joint e.g. sutures of cranium, Synovial Joint (articulation) ???? movement is limited by bony structure and ligament, Fibrous Joint ???? gomphosis (e.g. articulation b/w root of tooth & aveolar process) peg-like, fits in socket, Synovial Joint (articulation) EXPANDED, Synovial Joint (articulation) separate two bones by joint cavity, Synovial Joint (articulation) covered bearing surfaces w/ articular cartilage, Primary cartilaginous (Synchondrosis) in developing long bone, bony epiphysis and body joined by epiphysial plate (e.g. hyaline cartilage), fibrous tissue joined by gomphosis (e.g. articulation b/w root of tooth & aveolar process) peg-like, fits in socket, Cartilaginous Joint Secondary cartilaginous (Symphysis), Fibrous Joint Cartilaginous Joint, Primary cartilaginous (Synchondrosis) united by fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage, Secondary cartilaginous (Symphysis) united by fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage, gomphosis (e.g. articulation b/w root of tooth & aveolar process) peg-like, fits in socket e.g. (articulation b/w root of tooth & aveolar process) peg-like, fits in socket), Synovial Joint (articulation) most common & important, Fibrous Joint Syndemosis (e.g. interosseous membrane joining forearm bones), Synovial Joint (articulation) contains synovial fluid, Secondary cartilaginous (Symphysis) binding tissue is a fibrocartilaginous disc (e.g. b/w 2 vertebrae), fibrous tissue joined by Syndemosis (e.g. interosseous membrane joining forearm bones)
