PNB 2264 Exam 1 (UConn) with Questions
Solved 100% Correct
articulation - ANSWER meeting place of 2+ bones
ROM - ANSWER normal extent of joint movement
AB-ADduction - ANSWER frontal plane movements
Flexion-extension - ANSWER A-P plane; fingers, elbow, knee, hip
circumduction - ANSWER make a circle; combo of AB-AD & flex-extension
Rotation - ANSWER head (ex/internal) & shoulder (lateral/medial)
Pronation-Supination - ANSWER two radio-ulnar joints
Protraction-Retraction - ANSWER jaw & scapula
Inversion-eversion - ANSWER frontal plane movement, tilt foot medially or laterally
Joint Classification by Function - ANSWER immovable, slightly movable &
Freely movable
Joint Classification by structure - ANSWER fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial
Fibrous Joints - ANSWER suture, syndesmosis & teeth; bones articulate with CT fibers
, Sutures - ANSWER short CT fibers, immovable, full of collagen, interdigitation
between joints for more stability; Fibrous Joints, skull bones
Syndesmosis - ANSWER longer CT fibers, slight movement, distal tibio-
fibular articulation; Fibrous Joints
Cartilaginous Joints - ANSWER bones are connected by cartilage, synchondrosis &
synphysis
Synchondrosis - ANSWER hyaline cartilage, immovable; epiphyseal plate (growing
long bones) & costochondral joints (1st sternum - rib)
Synphysis - ANSWER fibrocartilage, slight movement; intervertebral disc & pubic
Synovial Joints - ANSWER freely movable joints that cushion, lubricate & nourish joint;
bursa (shoulder) or tendon sheath (sleeve that surrounds long tendons)
degrees of Freedom - ANSWER # of planes of movement
Uniaxial joint - ANSWER 1 degree of freedom, axis of rotation & plane of
movement (hinge & pivot joints)
Biaxial joint - ANSWER 2 degrees of freedom, axes of rotation, movement pairs
(ex. flex-ex, AD-AB & circumduction)
multiaxial joints - ANSWER 3 movement pairs + circumduction (hip & shoulder)
nonaxial joints - ANSWER gliding joints; slight movement in many directions
Phospholipids - ANSWER bi-layer of proteins & __, they are amphipathic
