Which location we do not see hyaline cartilage?
Hyaline cartilage normal covers the articular surfaces of bones in typical synovial joints and primary cartilaginous joints. Certail joints do not have hyaline cartilage covering the bony elements. These include: 1. Fibrous Joints - skull sutures, gymphosis (teeth) and interosseus joints (radius and ulna shafts) 2. Atypical Synovial Joints (these have fibrocartilage instead of hyaline cartilage covering the bones). These include the Temporomandibular (TMJ), Acromioclavicular Joint (ACJ), Sternoclavicular Joint, and 2nd to 7th Sternocostal Joints.
Which joints do not move?
The sutures of the skull are syndesmotic joints that do not move much, if at all. The symphysis pubis is also a joint that does not move under most normal circumstances. There are many such examples in the body.

Why sudden cracking noise started from your bones?
It depends on what bones you mean and where they are. Many synovial joints have tiny air pockets which can cause a popping or a crackling sound. I have two knee replacement joints and they pop at times which I was told was normal. Sometimes age can be a factor. There is always the friendly family doctor to ask as well.
What muscles and joints are involved in normal developmental movement?
All the synovial joints that are used in normal daily activities, like the muscles and joints of the arms and legs.
What is the point that two individual joints come together?
Two joints would never come together in a normal body. Two bones come together in a joint.

no its not normal if it front wheel drine it would be the cv joints and if it is rear wheel drive it would be the u joints
What is the normal skeleton and muscle attachments and range of movement in the joints in relation to correct moving and positioning?
The normal skeleton and muscle attachments provide support and stability to the joints during movement. Muscles contract and pull on bones to create movement in the joints. The range of movement in the joints is determined by the structure of the joint itself, as well as the length and flexibility of the surrounding muscles and tendons. Proper alignment and positioning of the body during movement helps to prevent injury and optimize efficiency.
What is primary osteoarthritis?
Primary OA results from abnormal stresses on weight-bearing joints or normal stresses operating on weakened joints. Primary OA most frequently affects the finger joints, the hips and knees, the cervical and lumbar spine, and the big toe.

What component of fitness is the ability to move the joint or any group of joints through an entire normal range of motion?
FlexibilityFlexibility
What is uncinate hypertrophy?
Uncinate hypertrophy is usually caused by osteoarthritis. This occurs when joints in the neck and spine grow bigger than normal.
What unique characteristics would a person who is double-jointed?
A person who is double-jointed may have more flexible joints than the average person, allowing them to bend their joints beyond the normal range of motion. This increased flexibility is often due to more elastic ligaments or shallower joint sockets. It's also known as hypermobility or joint laxity.
