A fluid-filled cavity, functional in reducing friction, found between articulating bones is characteristic of:
|
|
fibrous joints
|
|
|
cartilaginous joints
|
|
|
synovial joints
|
|
|
All of the above responses are correct
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Bursae: small fluid-filled sacs lined by a synovial membrane with an inner capillary layer of synovial fluid. It provides a cushion between bones and tendons and/or muscles around a joint. This helps to reduce friction between the bones and allows free movement.
Detailed explanation-2: -Synovial fluid is a viscous solution found in the cavities of synovial joints. The principal role of synovial fluid is to reduce friction between the articular cartilages of synovial joints during movement.
Detailed explanation-3: -Articular cartilage ensures smooth motion of natural synovial joints operating at very low friction.
