describe the structure of synovial joint with the help of labelled diagram
Answers
Explanation:
First of all
Synovial joints contain the following structures:
Synovial cavity: all diarthroses have the characteristic space between the bones that is filled with synovial fluid
Joint capsule: the fibrous capsule, continuous with the periosteum of articulating bones, surrounds the diarthrosis and unites the articulating bones; the joint capsule consists of two layers - (1) the outer fibrous membrane that may contain ligaments and (2) the inner synovial membrane that secretes the lubricating, shock absorbing, and joint-nourishing synovial fluid; the joint capsule is highly innervated, but without blood and lymph vessels, and receives nutrition from the surrounding blood supply via either diffusion (a slow process) or by convection, a far more efficient process achieved through exercise.
Articular cartilage: the bones of a synovial joint are covered by this layer of hyaline cartilage that lines the epiphyses of joint end of bone with a smooth, slippery surface that does not bind them together; articular cartilage functions to absorb shock and reduce friction during movement.

Answer:
In synovial joints, the end of articulating bones are covered with a thin cap of hyaline articular cartilage. The entore joints is enclosed within a tough synovial capsule. The wall of capsule is formed of an oter dense fibrous layer and a less dense, more cellular inner synovial layer . The cavity of the capsule between the articulating bones with a sticky and lubricating fluid called synovial fluid
