X-ray movements of ankle joints, 1960s

The video tutorial provides an overview of closely fitting bony structures and the strong ligaments that support them. It highlights the anatomical features and their significance in providing stability and support.

What is the primary characteristic of bony structures mentioned in the video?

• They are loosely connected.

• They are closely fitting.

• They are flexible.

• They are fragile.

Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the bony structures discussed?

• Flexible

• Strong

• Closely fitting

• Supportive

Which of the following best describes the function of strong ligaments?

• They provide flexibility to the joints.

• They connect muscles to bones.

• They stabilize and support the joints.

• They are responsible for bone growth.

How do strong ligaments contribute to the skeletal system?

• By holding bones together securely.

• By allowing free movement of bones.

• By increasing bone density.

• By reducing bone friction.

What might happen if ligaments were not strong?

• Muscles would not function.

• Joints would be less stable.

• Bones would grow faster.

• Bones would become more dense.
