The zygapophysial joint, also known as the facet joint, is formed by the articulation between the superior and inferior articular processes of adjacent vertebrae in the spine. These joints help to stabilize the spine and allow for movement between the vertebrae. The joint is lined with cartilage and surrounded by a joint capsule filled with synovial fluid.
In a synovial joint, compartments are typically divided by structures such as ligaments, capsules, and menisci. These structures help to stabilize the joint and separate different regions within it, allowing for smooth movement and proper function.
Structures like the meniscus (fibrocartilage pads) and articular cartilage help absorb shock in the knee joint. These structures distribute forces evenly across the joint and provide cushioning to prevent damage to the bones. Additionally, the synovial fluid within the joint also helps in shock absorption by lubricating the joint surfaces.
The mandible (lower jaw bone) articulates with the temporal bone of the skull at the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).
Both the femur and tibia are long bones that form a joint. The menisci or articular discs are structures that separate a joint cavity in to two compartments. They are found in the knee, jaw and sternoclavicular joints. It only partly divides a joint cavity and it can be torn in an action that puts pressure on the joint while the joint is turning.
A joint appendage is a structure attached to a joint that helps facilitate movement and stability. Examples include ligaments, tendons, and bursae. These structures play crucial roles in supporting joint function and preventing injuries.
If you mean as in bones, two or more bones form the joint. There are also stabilizing ligaments that help form the joint. If you mean a joint between two or more wood pieces, those are held together with fasteners or glue.
Yes, they are within the synovial joint but not all have them.
