medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate
The ligament known as the fibular collateral ligament is also referred to as the lateral collateral ligament (LCL). It is located on the outside of the knee joint and provides stability to the knee by preventing excessive sideways movement.
lateral collateral ligament (LCL) is most likely injured when the knee is hit from the lateral side. The LCL connects the femur (thigh bone) to the fibula (smaller bone in the lower leg) and provides stability to the outer side of the knee.
The fiction of ligaments refers to the misconception that ligaments are purely passive structures that only provide stability to joints. In reality, ligaments have active roles in proprioception, helping the body sense its position and movement, and they can also adapt to stress over time. Additionally, ligaments can have varying degrees of elasticity, contributing to joint function beyond mere stability. Understanding their dynamic nature is crucial for effective injury prevention and rehabilitation strategies.
The ankle joint is also known as the talocrural joint.
Medial Collateral Ligament - Liimits sideways motion Lateral Collateral Ligament - Also limits sideways motion Anterior Cruciate Ligament - Limits rotation and forward motion of the tibia. Posterior Cruciate ligament - limits the backwards motion of the knee. Patellar Ligament - attaches the kneecap to the tibia
Cruciate Ligaments-also known as the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments (shaped like a cross)
medial collateral, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate
The bone in your knee, or knee cap is also called a patella. This bone sits in ligaments between the femur and the tibia.
If your ACL is not torn or overextended there are other ligaments that exist in your knee. The MCL, Medial Cruciate Ligament, and the PCL, Posterior Cruciate Ligament are also ligaments that are common for a knee injury. Meniscuses also could sustain injury and tear. A doctor would have to properly diagnose what the injury is and could possibly do this with an MRI.
There are many ligaments that are in the ankle, but the most common and the strongest is the deltoid. There are also three lateral ligaments. Anterior Talofibular (which is the ligament that runs in the front) this where sprained ankles frequently occur. Posterior Talofibular (which is the ligament that runs in the back). Calcaneofibular is attached to the lateral malleolus. Hope this helped! :)
Knee joint is architectural wonder.It is a Hinge joint. It has got Medial collateral ligament and Lateral collateral ligament from lower end of Femur bone to upper end of Tibia bone.There is a Synovial membrane covering the joint, containing Synovial fluid in it, to lubricate the joint. We have Anterior Cruciate ligament attached to anterior side of upper end of Tibia to posterior part of lower end of Femur and Posterior Cruciate ligament is attached to posterior and upper end of Tibia to lower and anterior end of Femur. They are extremely strong ligaments,witch prevent forward and backward dislocation of Knee joint, making it one of the strongest joint in body. You have two menisci also.(Lateral and Medial.)
Keeps from luxating back and forth the distal femoral end from the tibial proximal end.II.As their name suggests, each ligament of the cruciate ligament pair crosses the other between its own attachment points, respectively, on laterally opposite aspects of the femur and of the tibia; and conversely for the "opposing" cruciate ligament in the cruciate ligament pair. So, then, you have two restraints (think of them like ropes . . . which, incidentally, is just the thing used to repair joints with severed tendons): one with origin on the medial (inside)aspect of distal femur which attaches to lateral aspect of proximal tibia and restricts forward flexing of tibia (this preventing backward flexion of knee joint; the other attached on opposite aspects, respectively, of femur and tibia and imparting similar leg anti-back-flexion restriction; and also combining, each with the other, to double the force which would be required (to double the tensile strength needing to be "overcome") in order to cause backward (unstable) flexion of the knee joint.It is the "crossing" aspect of the ligament pair (over and above said doubling of tensile strength without doubling of ligament size and pathway) that contributes substantially to imparting knee joint stability: in that the two ligaments, functioning in tandem while also opposing each other at their limits of extension, also restricts transversely-directed torsion/twist between humerus and tibia, a motion which direct, femur-tibia ligament attachment on each side of the knee joint could not effectively do, if at all . . . because a ligament (or rope) cannot effectively impart or resist any force other than in the same direction as its stretched-out length; a femur-attached tendon cannot effectively influence a laterally imposed force applied at its distal attachment to the tibia, but stretching a ligament between those same limits of twist (and on both sides in opposition) can effectively accomplish that same action.
ligaments
The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) and the PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) are the two major ligaments in the knee that work together to provide stability in the knee. They cross each other and form an 'X' which allows the knee to flex and extend without side to side movement.
Ligaments connect bone to bone. Tendons connect tissue to bone.
the function of the ligament is where bones are held in place and joined together by tough bonds of tissue Ligament has a structure of a strong white chord, allowing its function to support the limbs of the body. Also, another structure is a bluish, white rubbery material, letting the ligament to cushion between the ends of bones and prevent the rubbing of them. Answer I believe the function of a ligament is to support tendons and bones like your knee has tons of ligaments also your back.
