Joints: Structure and Types of Motion

The video tutorial explores the structure and function of joints in the human body. It begins with an introduction to joints and their role in providing flexibility. Joints are classified by function (synarthroses, ampiarthroses, diarthroses) and structure (fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial). The tutorial delves into each type, explaining their characteristics and examples. Fibrous joints are immovable, cartilaginous joints have limited movement, and synovial joints offer substantial mobility. The video also covers the types of movements joints allow, such as gliding, angular, and rotational movements, and introduces special movements like supination and pronation.
