Rank the following joints from least to most movable gliding saddle suture syndesmosis ball-and-socket?
The sequence from least moveable joint to most: Suture, Syndesmoses, Saddle, Ball-in-Socket Sutures are fibrous joints that only occur between bones of the skull; a syndesmoses is also a fibrous joint in which there is a greater distance between the articulating surfaces and ligaments connect them; saddle joint is a triaxial joint and can move only in 3 planes of motion; the ball-in-socket joint is also triaxial and can actually produce as much movement as the saddle joint.
Is a ball and socket joint a uniaxial joint because motion is limited to rotation in a single plane?
No; the ball-and-socket joint is a multi-axial (specifically triaxial) joint because it allows motion in 3 planes.Flexion-extensionAbduction-adductionRotation
Is the synovial ball in socket a amphiarthrodial joint?
No. An amphiarthrodial joint is a cartilaginous joint that allows minimal movement in a lot of different planes. The ball-in-socket joint is a triaxial synovial joint that allows movement in all three planes around all three axis.
Which of the following is an example of a pivotal joint?
the joint that joins the skull to the first vertebra
What is triaxial stress?
That is stress in three dimensions. Biaxial stress is in two dimensions. Triaxial stress has normal and shear stresses along each of three planes. Most beams can be analyzed with uniaxial stress; plates with biaxial; solids with triaxial
What kind of joint is a multiaxial joint?
A multiaxial joint is a type of synovial joint. The x-axial refers to how many planes of the movement the specific joint provides, so in the case of a multiaxial joint, that means it provides movement in many planes of movement (multiaxial usually refers to three, which can then also be stated as triaxial).
What if your elbow is an example of a hingle joint?
The elbow is a hinge joint. The largest hinge joint is in the knee.
How do you properly describe a joint?
Whenever you need to properly describe a joint, either for studying or for an assignment, it's important to mention the following details:name(s) of the jointarticulating bonestype of joint/joint classificationmovements providedligaments involvedother detailsExample: The shoulder joint(1) The humeroscapular joint or shoulder joint is the articulation between (2) the head of the humerus and the glenoid cavity of the scapula. It is a (3) ball-and-socket synovial joint which provides (4) triaxial movement and circumduction. (5) The coracohumeral, glenohumeral and tranverse humeral ligaments are involved.(6) The shoulder joint is the point of attachment of the upper limbs/arms to the body. The rotator cuff helps to stabilize and strengthen the joint.Joints occur wherever two bones meet.
Differences between triaxial test and shear box test?
Shear box tests are generally suitable for cohensionless soil except fine sand and silt whereas triaxial test is suitable for all types of soils. Pressure changes and volume changes can be measured directly in triaxial test which is not possible in shear box test. Pore water pressure can be measured in the case of triaxial test which is not possible in direct shear test. Triaxial machine is more adaptable. The stress distribution across the soil sample in the failure plane is more uniform in triaxial test. The complete state of stress is known at all intermediate stages up to failure during the triaxial test whereas only the stress at failure are known in the direct shear test. In triaxial test, there is complete control over the drainage conditions, where control of drainage conditions is very difficult in shear box test.
Which of the following is the defining structure of a synovial joint?
joint cavity
The cubital joint is an example of what joint?
Elbow, a hinge joint.
What is the medical term meaning joint at the base of your thumb?
The base of the thumb, the first phalanx, makes a joint with a carpal bone called the trapezium, and the two articulate in a special joint called a saddle joint. You only have tow of these in your body, one at the base of each thumb.
