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.
Is the costosternal joint a synovial joint?
Synovial joints allow for movement between the articulating bones (in this case the sternum and the clavicle). The articulating bones are covered in articular cartilage, which are connected with ligaments and lined with a synovial membrane. There is a fluid-filled sac between these types of joints to reduce the amount of friction with movement and the fluid inside of these sacs is called synovial fluid.
What is the role of synovial fluid in sports movements?
Synovial fluid in the synovial sacs (in bone joints) saves the participating bones in the joints from hurt, injury by acting like pad (buffer) between the articulating bones
What is Types of junctions?
1. Bony Fusion- bones fused together; no movement (also called synostoses joints)2. Fibrous Joints-immovable joints (synarthroses) that have fibrous connective tissue between the articulating bones; little to no movement3. Cartilaginous Joints- cartilage between the bones4. Synovial Joints- have a joint cavity lined by a synovial membrane
What are senovial fluid sacks?
A synovial fluid sac which is actually called a synovial bursa is a fluid-filled sac lined with synovial membrane with an inner layer of slimy fluid. This provides cushion between bones and tendons and/or muscles around joints. They also reduce friction between the bones.

Is the function of the synovial membrane?
The synovial membrane is the inner membrane of tissue that lines a joint. The synovial membrane secretes synovial fluid which serves to lubricate the joint and reduce the friction between bones in joints.

Synovial joints are freely movable joints that?
Synovial joints are freely movable joints that achieve movement at the point of contact of the articulating bones.
What is the name of two kind of joints?
There are primarily three kinds of joints:FIBROUS = articulating bones are held closely together by fibrous connective tissueCARTILAGINOUS = articulating bones are held closely together by cartilageSYNOVIAL = joint where there a space between the articulating bones which is filled with synovial fluid
What is a lubricating fluid found between two bones?
Synovial fluid is the lubricant between the ends of bones.
What is the defining structure of a synovial joint?
A synovial joint can be characterised by a synovial cavity within synovial membrane encapsulating two articulating bone ends to allow for joint mobilisation. Wow how about an answer now.........Joint Cavity
What tissue that covers the articulating surface of a bone?
Actually it's cartilages and the synovial fluid which makes the joint movements smooth.....
What is a sac or cavity found between bones in joints are called?
Synovial fluid is contained in the synovial membrane.
Do synovial joints have bones covered in hyaline cartilage?
the ends of the bones are, yes
