What reduces friction in a joint?
A comination of cartillage and synovial fluid resduced the frinction at synovial joints. Cartillagenous and fibrous joints dont really move and so dont need to have friction reduced.
Is there friction in your body?
Friction exists in the joints between the bones. Cartilage reduces the drag.Also, blood flowing through the vessels causes friction. That is where we get the blood pressure from.
Why is it important to reduce friction in joints?
to prolong live and it will take less force to get it moving
What thing can you use to help us overcome friction?
wheels overcome friction
Does friction help mousetrap cars?
no it does not
What can be used to help reduce friction when removing mat rows?
use a bio-degradable liquid lubricant on the longitudinal joints
Does Articular cartilage increase friction between bones?
Cartilage in joints REDUCE friction.
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 can the joints in the body help you?
you joints is help you move
How are friction welding joints inspected?
I believe that the most effective and common way to inspect a friction weld is by ultrasound.

How is friction reduced in artificicial joints?
Artificial joints, as well as natural joints, basically use the same method as all sorts of machinery does, namely, lubrication.
Is there friction in your body?
Friction exists in the joints between the bones. Cartilage reduces the drag.Also, blood flowing through the vessels causes friction. That is where we get the blood pressure from.
What cushions joints?
Cartilage is the major cushion for joints, in synovial joints however they are cushioned by a fluid sac.
What is one harmful way friction affects your life?
as a result of Rheumatoid arthritis some of my joints have lost a lot of their cartilage. the result is extra friction which deforms the joints in the bone and causes some serious pain.
How do cartilage bursae and synovial fluid help reduce friction in the knee joints?
Bone articulate at joints. There are several kinds of joints. The most flexible are the synovial joints, such as the knee and elbow. In these joints the ends of the bones are covered with articular cartilage. The cartilage protects the ends of the bones. Synovial fluid bathes the cartilage to provide lubrication. This is just like oil in a door hinge to keep it running smoothly. The bursa is a bag that surrounds the joint. It's job is to hold the fluid in the joint. The lining of the bursal also makes the fluid. It is a neat system to keep the joints "oiled".
Why is necessary that cartilage is present in all moving joints?
To avoid bone-on-bone friction.
