Synovial - the articulating bone ends are covered with articular cartilage, and enclosed within an articular capsule that is typically reinforced by ligaments externally. Internally the fibrous capsule is lined with a smooth synovial membrane that secretes synovial fluid.

What is the fluid called that lubricates freely moving joints in the human body?
In our joint cavities, there is a fluid known as synovial fluid. It allows the joints to move freely and serves to reduce friction that can occur when joints move together. It is made up of hyaluronic acid.
What is the anatomy of a movable joint?
movable joints are also known as synovial joints. These joints are characterised by the presence of a capsule b/w the articulating bones (forming joints b/w two or more bones) The ends of these bones are held close together by a sleeve of fibrous tissue and the capsule is lubricated with a small amount of fluid (the synovial fluid)
Structure of a typical synovial joint?
Characteristics ALWAYS associated with synovial joints: synovial fluid, articular cartilage, articular capsule, synovial membrane, capsular ligaments, blood vessels, and sensory nerves. Characteristics SOMETIMES associated with synovial joints: intraarticular disc or mensici, peripheral labrum, fat pads, and synovial plicae
Which joints contain joint fluid?
All joints have a membrane called the synovial membrane. It contains synovial fluid; therefore, all joints contain a fluid.synovial Joint
Can synovial fluid be regenerated after removal?
fresh synovial fluid is constantly produced to lubricate joints, even synthetic joints.
Why are freely movable joints called synovial joints?
Because they are surrounded by a capsule which contains synovial fluid, which acts as a lubricant.

What Secreted by the membranes of the joints that make the smooth movement of the bones at the joints possible?
I believe youre asking what fluid makes the joints movement fluid... the answer is synovial fluid, made of mostly water. Its held between the bones by an overall structure called the joint capsule. There are smaller, more specific parts of the joint capsule, but I wont go into detail. Synovial fluid is not secreted by the joint capsule or the surrounding cartilage, however. Since the capsule is richly vascularized but poorly innervated, it just takes in water from the bloodstream whenever necessary to keep the capsule filled. It does not create its own synovial fluid.

What is synoxial fluid?
Synovial fluid is the fluid found in synovial joints, and is secreted by the synovial membrane. The shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle are synovial joints, as are metacarpo- and metatarsophalangeal and interphalangeal joints.
What joints have a fibrous capsule lined with synovial membrane surrounding a joint cavity?
Synovial
13 Non articulating surfaces of TMJ covered by?
Synovial Membrane. Synovial Membran is a thin membrane in synovial (freely moving) joints that lines the joint capsule and secretes synovial fluid.-it basically seals the joint.

What do joints consist of?
Synivial joints have a synovial cavity between the articulating bones. This cavity is filled with synovial fluid that reduces friction at the joint, enabling the articulating bones to move freely.
What lubricates the joints of bodies?
It is synovial fld that lubricates the joints of bodies.
What is the outermost part of a synovial joint?
A typical synovial joint has a joint capsule, a synovial membrane, synovial fluid, a joint cavity, and articular cartilage. A joint capsule surrounds the joint, supporting and stabilizing it. The synovial membrane is within the joint capsule. This membrane closely surrounds the joint and forms a joint cavity. The synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid that lubricates the articular surfaces of the joint. In some joints, the synovial membrane extends outside the joint capsule to form a bursa. The bursa cushions the joint. Bursae are in the knee, elbow, shoulder, and hip. Articular cartilage covers the articular surfaces of synovial joints to prevent excess wear and tear as they move against each other.
