Joints and Movement
Fused joints in your head. The plates grow into each other.
Synovial Joints These joints can move and have synovial fluid to keep them moving smoothly.
1. Ball and Socket Joint they can swivel in many directions. e.g. in your hip and shoulder.
2. Hinged Joint can move in one direction only.

Structure of a Moveable JointA pad of Cartilage acts as a shock absorber between bones.A lubricating fluid called synovial fluid helps keep the joint moving.
Ligaments join bone to bone and hold the joint together.

Muscles and Movement
Tendons connect muscles to bone.The Achilles tendon is shown here.Often it can snap and has to be sown back onto the bone.

Antagonistic MusclesThese are muscles that pull against each other.They work together to move bones.An example is biceps and triceps in your arm.When you contract your bicep the arm moves up.When you contract your tricep, the arm moves down.
