Joints
Questions to discuss in A & B Pairs!
Q: What do you think a joint is?
A: A joint is where two bones meet.
It can be movable or fixed.
Q: Why do you think we have joints?
A: If we did not have joints we would
find simple tasks like eating very
difficult. Any movement needing
bending would be impossible!!!!
Where in our body do we find movable joints?
Did you
locate
the joints
in our
body
correctly?
Do you think that these joints all work in the same way?
We actually have three main types of
movable joints:
1) A hinge joint
2) A ball and socket joint
3) A gliding joint
Your toes use hinge joints (back-and-forth
movements like hinges on a door). Elbows,
knees and fingers also have these types of
joints. Hinge joints are classified as a
movable joint.
The hips and shoulders contain
ball-and-socket joints
In a ball-and-socket joint, one
bone has a rounded end that fits
into a cuplike cavity on another
bone. This provides a wider
range of movement. Thus, your
hips and shoulders can swing in
almost any direction.
The joints between the vertebrae are
called gliding joints, where one part
of a bone slides over another bone.
