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 the main purpose of synovial fluid is?

Synovial fluid is the fluid found within synovial joints. It acts as a cushion to the joint. The synovial membrane secretes this fluid as a response to trauma, as it adds extra cushioning. in addition to this, the fluid reduces friction between the articular cartilage which coats the end of bones within a joint.

What is the substance that makes the cartilage at the end of the bones slippery?

The substance that makes the cartilage at the end of the bones slippery is called synovial fluid. This viscous fluid is produced by the synovial membrane and serves to lubricate the joints, reduce friction during movement, and provide nourishment to the cartilage. The combination of cartilage and synovial fluid allows for smooth and pain-free joint motion.
