HOW MOVEMENT HAPPENS: Muscles Pull on Tendons to Move Bones at Connections called Joints or Articulations Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
3
Connections TendonLigaments Ligaments connect bone- to-bone or reinforce joints Some ligaments limit the mobility of articulations, or prevent certain movements altogether Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement Generally regular connective tissue Musculo-skeletal connections Muscle to bone Muscle to muscle Bone to bone Can have various shapes

Tendons
5
Ligaments Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
6
Joints or Articulations Connections between bones Usually, but not always allow for movement Formed from various connective tissues Fibrous Cartilaginous Synovial (most complex--typical limb joints) Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
7
Fibrous joints Suture Bones tightly bound by minimal fiber Only found in skull Fig. 9.1 a, M&M
8
Fibrous joints Syndemoses Bones connected by ligaments E.g. tibiofibular ligament Fig. 8.4, M&M
9
Fibrous joints Gomphoses Peg in socket joint Only found in teeth/alveoli
10
Cartilaginous Joints SymphysesSynchondrosis Hyaline cartilage unites bones Epiphyseal growth plates Costal cartilage-sternum Fibrocartilage unites bones Pubic symphysis Intervertebral disc
11
Synovial Joints Most common joints in body Most mobile joints Have Articular surfaces on bone with hyaline cartilage Completely enclosed joint capsule formed from ligaments Synovial fluid within capsule lubricates joint Some have meniscus or articular disc(e.g. knee, jaw joint) Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
12
Also see Fig. 9.3, M&M
13
Synovial Joint Shape Types Plane joints--intercarpal joints Hinge joints--elbow,ankle, interj- phalangeal Pivot joints--radio-ulnar joint The type of joint, in part, determines the range and direction of movement Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
14
Synovial Joint Shape Types Condyloid joints (egg into oval)--metacarpo- phalangeal Saddle joints--carpo-metacarpal joint of thumb Ball-and-socket--hip, shoulder Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
15
X-ray of hand affected by arthritis Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
16
Artificial Hip Joint Frolich, Human Anatomy, Mechanics of Movement
