Worked practice questions

Joints are classified in two ways, by structure and by:

  1. Function
  2. Fracture
  3. Fragment
  4. Formation
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Function

1. One scheme looks at the material joining the bones. 2. The other looks at how much movement is allowed. 3. So the second is by function. _Source: OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e, Chapter 9, Joints._
