Question

symphysis joints provide no movement and are functionally classified as synarthroses.

true
false

question 73
which of the following is a freely movable joint?

diarthrosis
synarthrosis
fibrous
amphiarthrosis

Explanation:

Analyze the first statement

Using the Symphyses and Joint Functions knowledge points

• Symphyses are cartilaginous joints where the connecting medium is fibrocartilage.
• Functionally, symphyses allow slight movement, which classifies them as amphiarthroses, not synarthroses (which allow no movement).
• Therefore, the statement "Symphysis joints provide no movement and are functionally classified as synarthroses" is False.

Analyze Question 73

Using the Joint Classification and Joint Functions knowledge points

• Joints are functionally classified based on the degree of movement they permit:
• Synarthrosis: an immovable joint.
• Amphiarthrosis: a slightly movable joint.
• Diarthrosis: a freely movable joint.
• Fibrous is a structural classification, not a functional one, and most fibrous joints are synarthroses or amphiarthroses.
• Therefore, a freely movable joint is a diarthrosis.

Answer:

Question 1

• True
• False (Correct answer)

Question 73

• diarthrosis (Correct answer)
• synarthrosis
• fibrous
• amphiarthrosis
