What is the loss or absence of mobility in a joint?
Ankylosis is the loss or absense of mobility in a joint.
Does the hip joint allow a greater freedom of movement than the shoulder joint?
No. The shoulder joint is a ball socket. This allows the arms to move 360°. On the other hand, the hip can only swivel and rotate in place.
Have the greatest mobility?
Synovial.
Relationship between mobility and stability in joint?
Ligámnets ones connects and joint
What is the scientific name for double joint?
hyper-mobility
Describe the different classifications of joints and the range of movement at each?
Structural classification- how the bones are connected (fibrous joint, cartilaginous joint, synovial joint). Functional classfication- synarthrosis (little or no mobility); sutures of the skull amphiarthrosis (slight mobility); vertebrae diarthrosis (variety of mobility/movement); shoulder, hip, elbow, knee
What is unfavorable ankylosis?
stiffening of a joint ,which can cause pain and loss of mobility.
Which alkali metal has lowest ionic mobility in water?
Lithium will have least ionic mobility as it has the greatest hydration energy.
If you are building a robot with a skeleton similar to a human skeleton and the robot needs to be able to move a limb in all directions what kind of joint would be needed and why?
The greatest mobility is given by a ball and socket joint, such as humans have where the humerus meets the shoulder. The alternative, a hinge joint such as we have at the elbow, really only allows movement in one plane.
Is Ankylosis the loss or absence of mobility in a joint?
Ankylosis or anchylosis is a stiffness of a joint due to abnormal adhesion and rigidity of the bones of the joint, this can be the result of injury or disease.
What are the characteristics of flexibility?
hyper mobility, joint laxity, body build, and flexibility
Explain the relationship between joint strength and mobility using specific examples?
The stronger a joint is the less mobile it will be, and visa versa. The shoulder joint is a very mobile joint and is therefore weak.
