5. Synovial Joints Freely movable joints that permit movement in one or more directions 5 common types of synovial joints: – Ball and Socket joints – Hinge joints – Pivot joints – Saddle joints – Gliding joints

6. Types of Movement Flexion – the angle of the joint is decreased. Extension – the angle of the joint is increased. Abduction – a body part is moved away from the middle of the body. Adduction – a body part is moved towards the middle of the body. Rotation – a body part is moved either outwards or inwards around its long axis.

Pronation – a rotation of the forearm which causes the palm of the hand to face downwards. Inversion – a rotation of the sole of the foot inwards. Eversion – a rotation of the sole of the foot outwards.

8. Tendons, Ligaments, & Cartilage Tendons – Connect muscle to bone – Strains – Ex. Achilles tendon & biceps tendon Ligaments – Connect bone to bone – Sprains – Ex. ACL, MCL, LCL, PCL, and ankle ligaments Cartilage – Use for cushioning of joints – Ex. Meniscus and Labrum
