Functional ClassificationsSynarthroses (immovable)Amphiarthroses ( partially movable)Diarthroses (freely movable)

Structural ClassificationFibrousCartilaginousSynovial

Synovial FluidSynovial Fluid

Synovial fluid consists of: Hyaluronic acid Interstitial fluid from plasma

Functions of synovial fluid Lubrication Reduce friction between structures Supply nutrients Remove waste products Phagocytosis of microbes & debris

Movement at jointsMovement at joints

Structure & Shape of Bones Involved Strength & Tension of Ligaments Arrangement & Tension of MusclesOpposing Soft Parts Hormones Disuse

Learning ObjectivesLearning Objectives
