We continue our look at your bones and skeletal system, skipping over the silly kid's song in favor of a more detailed look at your axial and appendicular skeleton. This episode also talks about the structural and functional classifications of your joints and the major types of body movement that they facilitate.
Chapters:
Introduction: Joints
Axial Bones: Cranial, Facial, Vertebrae, & Thoracic Cage
Appendicular Bones: Limbs & Pelvis
Types of Joints
Functional Classification of Joints: Synarthroses, Amphirthroses, Diarthroses
Structural Classification of Joints: Fibrous, Cartilaginous, Synovial
Types of Synovial Joints
Plane Joints - Gliding Movements
Hinge Joints - Angular Movements: Flexion, Extension, & Hyperextension
Condylar Joints - More Angular Movements: Abduction, Adduction, & Circumduction
Ball & Socket Joints - Rotational Movements
Saddle Joints - Opposition Movement
