Fluid-filled sacs containing synovial fluid are called
A
bursae
B
menisci
C
ligaments
D
tendons
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The most bursa in the human body are synovial bursae, which are most common near large joints in the extremities, are located between tissues, and are defined as thin, synovial membrane sacs. [5] A capillary film of synovial fluid on the inner surface of the sac surfaces acts as a lubricant.

Detailed explanation-2: -The bursae in your body are made up of a synovial membrane. This thin membrane of tissue secretes the synovial fluid that is contained within the bursa sac. Synovial fluid is your body’s lubricant, and this viscous fluid inside the bursa allows structures in your body to glide over one another easily.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bursae are tiny fluid-filled sacs that are found around joints. Synovial fluid is a viscous slippery lubricating fluid that fills that synovial cavity of synovial joint. Thus, this is the key difference between bursa and synovial fluid. Bursa is lined by the synovial membrane, and it is filled with the synovial fluid.

Detailed explanation-4: -A bursa (plural bursae) is a small, fluid-filled sac lined by synovial membrane with an inner capillary layer of fluid (synovial fluid) with the consistency of raw egg white. It provides a cushion between bones and tendons or muscles around a joint.
