The synovial joint is not commonly found in the axial skeleton because it allows too much mobility for the axial skeleton where protection and support of internal organs calls for immobility. The axial skeleton consists of the bony and cartilaginous parts that support and protect the organs of the head, neck, and trunk.

What is found in the axial skeleton vertebrae scapula ischium calacaneus?
The axial skeleton consists of the vertebrae, which protect the spinal cord. The scapula is a flat, triangular bone in the shoulder, which connects with the humerus. The ischium is one of the three bones that make up the hip bone, along with the ilium and pubis. The calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone in the foot, commonly known as the heel bone.
Why are diarthroses found predominantly in the limbs while synarthroses and amphiarthroses are found largely in the axial skeleton?
Diarthroses joints are movable joints. More movement is required in the limbs of the appendicular. Synarthroses joints are immovable joints and amphiarthroses are semimovable joints. Less movement is required in hte axial skeleton than in the appendicular skeleton.
What is a internal skeleton?
endoskeleton
The appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the what?
The part of the skeleton that includes the pectoral girdle and the pelvic girdle and the upper and lower limbs.
Where the major cartilages in adult skeleton?
The major cartilages in the adult skeleton include the hyaline cartilage found at the ends of long bones, the fibrocartilage in intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis, and the elastic cartilage in the external ear and larynx. These cartilages provide structural support, cushioning, and flexibility to various parts of the skeleton.
Which structural joint is not commonly found in the axial skeleton?
Immoveable joint .
What is found in the axial skeleton vertebrae scapula ischium calacaneus?

The ischium is one of the three bones that make up the hip bone, along with the ilium and pubis. The calcaneus is the largest tarsal bone in the foot, commonly known as the heel bone.
Are girdles in the axial skeleton?
no, they are found in the appendicular skeleton
Why are ligaments not found in axial skeleton?
But ligaments are found in both. Bones are connected to bones with ligaments.
Why are diarthroses found predominantly in the limbs while synarthroses and amphiarthroses are found largely in the axial skeleton?
Diarthroses joints are movable joints. More movement is required in the limbs of the appendicular. Synarthroses joints are immovable joints and amphiarthroses are semimovable joints. Less movement is required in hte axial skeleton than in the appendicular skeleton.
What structural forms are found in a human body?
The Human body is a frame (skeleton), a shell (skin), and a solid.
Are condyles only found int the axial skeleton?
Condyle is a rounded prominence at the end of a bone, most often used for articulation with another bone. Condyles can be found in numorous places in the body example: Knuckles TMJ ( Temporomandibular Joint/ aka Jaw) Vertebral Column In short, they can be found in both the axial and appendicular skeleton.
What prefix and suffix make a definition of external skeleton?
Exo- is the prefix meaning "outside" and -skeleton is the suffix meaning "structural framework." Together, exo- and -skeleton form the term "exoskeleton," which refers to a hard external skeleton found in many invertebrates.
What is a internal skeleton?
endoskeleton
Which bone connects the arm bones to the axial skeleton?
Bones of the axial skeleton are typically joint by joints called synarthrosis, or amphiarthrosis. A synarthrosis provides very little movement if any. An example can be found in the skull; sutures are synarthrosis. An amphiarthrosis allows more movement, but are still rather fixes; the connection of the manubrium of the sternum and the body of the sternum is an amphiarthrosis.
The appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the what?
The part of the skeleton that includes the pectoral girdle and the pelvic girdle and the upper and lower limbs.
What are the example of stuctural polyssacharides?
Structural polysaccharides are the polysaccharides that are found to form the structure of an organism. Eg. Cellulose - in plants Chitin - found in outer skeleton of insects and crabs Lignin - wood
