21. Synovial joints
characterized by the presence of a synovial fluid-filled cavity, allow a wide range of movements due to their structural complexity. These joints are classified based on the shape of their articulating surfaces and the range of movements they allow. Here are the classifications along with examples for each variety:
1. Plane Joints (Gliding Joints)
Articulating Surfaces: Flat or slightly curved surfaces.
Range of Movement: Limited gliding or sliding movements.
Examples: Carpals of the wrist, tarsals of the ankle, and between the articular processes of vertebrae.
2. Hinge Joints
Articulating Surfaces: Convex surface of one bone fits into the concave surface of another.
Range of Movement: Angular movement in one plane (flexion and extension).
Examples: Elbow joint (ulna and humerus), knee joint (femur and tibia).
3. Pivot Joints
Articulating Surfaces: Rounded or pointed surface of one bone articulates with a ring or notch of another.
Range of Movement: Rotation around a central axis.
Examples: Atlantoaxial joint (between the atlas and axis vertebrae), proximal radioulnar joint.
4. Condyloid Joints (Ellipsoidal Joints)
Articulating Surfaces: Oval-shaped condyle of one bone fits into an elliptical cavity of another.
Range of Movement: Flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and circumduction.
Examples: Metacarpophalangeal joints (knuckles), radiocarpal joint.
5. Saddle Joints
Articulating Surfaces: Articulating surfaces have both concave and convex regions.
Range of Movement: Similar to condyloid joints, allowing flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and circumduction.
Examples: Carpometacarpal joint of the thumb.
6. Ball-and-Socket Joints
Articulating Surfaces: Spherical head of one bone fits into a cup-like socket of another.
Range of Movement: Greatest range of motion, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, circumduction, and rotation.
Examples: Shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint), hip joint.
22. 5 layers of epidermis
The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and is composed of several distinct layers, each with specific functions. The layers of the epidermis, from the innermost to the outermost, are:
1. Stratum Basale (Basal Layer)
Located at the bottom layer.
Contains actively dividing cells (keratinocytes) that contribute to the renewal of the epidermis.
Melanocytes, responsible for producing melanin (pigment), are also found in this layer.
2. Stratum Spinosum (Prickle Cell Layer)
Above the stratum basale.
Composed of several layers of polygonal cells.
Cells in this layer contain desmosomes, giving them a spiky appearance.
3. Stratum Granulosum (Granular Layer)
Situated above the stratum spinosum.
Characterized by the presence of granules containing keratohyalin, which plays a role in the formation of keratin.
Cells in this layer start to lose their nuclei and other organelles.
4. Stratum Lucidum (Clear Layer)
Present in thick skin, such as the skin on the palms and soles.
Composed of translucent, flat cells without nuclei.
Functions to add thickness and protection to the skin.
5. Stratum Corneum (Horny Layer)
Outermost layer of the epidermis.
Consists of multiple layers of flattened, dead, and fully keratinized cells.
Provides a barrier against environmental factors, preventing dehydration and protecting the underlying layers.
