to prolong live and it will take less force to get it moving
Why grease is important?
To reduce the friction
Does sand reduce friction?

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.
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
Why grease is important?
To reduce the friction
Why is fluid important between bones?
Synovial fluid is important between the bones because it helps reduce the friction between the bones. This fluid also lets a person move his joints more freely.
What is the most common type of cartilage found between bones in freely moveable joints?
Light micrograph of hyaline cartilage is a flexible connective tissue. This is including the joints between bones. To maintain this, one would need to take glucosamine chondroitin or something similar.
Where is ligament?
A ligament is located in many joints of the body, including the knee and shoulder . Ligaments are the tough, fibrous tissue between joints to reduce friction.
What is the name of the structures that are on the ends of bones to reduce friction where they articulate with other bones?
our joints, which are made up of mainly cartilage.
What can be used to help reduce friction when removing mat rows?
use a bio-degradable liquid lubricant on the longitudinal joints
What helps reduce friction and allows bones to slide more easily over each other?
Gliding joints
What are the fluid filled sacs associated with synovial joints?
They are called as bursae. They reduce the friction of the muscle tendons.
