Document Summary

1. functional classi cation understanding what they do freely moveable or not: structural classi cation, what is holding it together and allowing it to function. Freely moveable ex. radius the bones have a lsat end up against another at end of a bone or a round end up against a small end the bones aren"t restricted typically seen in the appendicular skeleton. Or it is there on the surface of the bone but is not directly linking the bones together because a disk is in-between them articulation bones are united with cartilage not very moveable. Movement is allowed though: synchondroses, symphyses with connecting hyaline, without connecting hyaline, synovial joints they have a joint cavity, hyaline, and movement, most joints in the body are synovial joints. When we stop growing the epiphyseal plate disappears and the cartilage becomes bone symphyses. Joint cavity (aka synovial cavity) unique potential space holding uid: what creates this space/cavity is a capsule that is.
