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._

The number of structural classes into which joints are divided is:

  1. 5
  2. 3
  3. 2
  4. 4
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. 3

1. Fibrous and cartilaginous are two of them. 2. Synovial completes the list. 3. So there are 3 structural classes. _Source: OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e, Chapter 9, Joints._

A joint where adjacent bones are united by fibrous connective tissue is:

  1. Fibrous
  2. Fibrillar
  3. Filtered
  4. Fixation
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Fibrous

1. The joining material gives the class its name. 2. Here it is fibrous connective tissue. 3. So the joint is fibrous. _Source: OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e, Chapter 9, Joints._
