What type of joint does the head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity?
Ball and socket
The cavity between bones at the joint is known as what?
synovial cavity
What are the functions of joint cavity?
The Joint Cavity is the space or scientifically a 'potential' space filled with synovial fluid. The function of this fuild is to reduce friction by lubricationg the joint.
What type of synovial joint does a rounded or pointed surface on one bone articulate with a ring formed partly by another bone and partly by a ligament?
In case of shoulder joint you have the glenoid cavity of the scapula taking part in joint formation. You have the glenoid labrum to increase the surface area of the glenoid cavity. The large head of the humerus takes part in joint formation.
Definition of joint cavity?
a joint cavity, the potential space bounded by the synovial membrane and articular cartilages of all synovial joints. Normally, the articular cavity contains only sufficient synovial fluid to lubricate the internal surfaces.
A joint that has no joint cavity and exhibits little or no movement would be classified as a?
syndemosis
What type of joint does the head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity?
Ball and socket
What type of joint contains a joint cavity articular cartilage synovial membrane and ligaments?
synovial joints have synovial cavities
The cavity between bones at the joint is known as what?
synovial cavity
Which of the following is the defining structure of a synovial joint?
joint cavity
Which joints contain a joint cavity?
All synovial joints contain a joint cavity. Synovial joints differ from the other joints: Fibrous and cartilaginous joints. Synovial is different because of its structure, and includes several parts including a joint cavity.
What effect does the glenoid cavity have on the shoulder joint?
the glenoid cavity is where the bone from the arm does all it's movements. it's essentially the "socket", if you consider the shoulder joint a ball and socket joint.

Which reinforce the fibrous capsule help prevent dislocation of the joint?
joint cavity
Do all fibrous joints have a joint cavity?
NO
Are the most fibrous joints joined by joint cavity?
Synovial joints have a fibrous articular capsule lined with synovial membrane surrounding a joint cavity.
