Why grease is important?
To reduce the friction
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.
What is the difference between a bursa and the joint capsule?
I this its the following: Bursae - located between skin and bones, tendons and bones, muscles and bones, or ligaments and bones - Main function: reduce friction between joints Joint Capsule - surrounds a synovial joint and encloses the synovial cavity - Main function: unite the articulating bones and reduce friction via production of synovial fluid
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
Why is it important to reduce friction in joints?
to prolong live and it will take less force to get it moving
Cartilage in the knee and elbow performs two very important jobs what are those jobs?
The cartilage helps cushion and reduce friction in the joint.
Why grease is important?
To reduce the friction
How do bursae and tendon sheaths improve joint function?
bursae and tendon sheaths he;p to reduce friction during joint movement
How does the body cut down friction at joints?
There is a thick liquid produced in the joint spaces to cushion and reduce friction. This viscous fluid is called synovial fluid.
How does the human body reduce friction?
The human body creates synovial fluid, which is found in our joints. This is a lubricating fluid, which reduces friction. When a joint loses its synovial fluid, bones can touch each other, which causes joint pain. This can be alleviated medically by having a series of joint injections with an artificial synovial fluid called hyaluronic acid. There are two common supplements, which are also used to reduce joint friction, glucosamine and chondroitin.
why it is important to reduce friction at movable joint?
friction will resist smooth motion at a moveable joint so reducing friction allows joint to move freely
What are the functions of joint cavity?
The Joint Cavity is the space or scientifically a 'potential' space filled with synovial fluid. The function of this fuild is to reduce friction by lubricationg the joint.
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.

What is the name of the material that covers the end of bones to reduce friction at joint?
articular cartilage a subset of hyaline cartilage
