Injuries to the knee 12: elbow joint 12, shoulder joint (glenohumoral joint) 13, hip joint (coxal joint) 13, temperomandibular joint (tmj) 14. 4. 1 structural and functional classifica tion of joints (cid:120) a joint is a site where 2 or more bones meet (cid:120) arthro = joint (cid:120) Is there a cavity? fibrous: cartilaginous: synovial: consisting of or characterized by fibers. (of a structure) made of cartilage. Type of joint that is surrounded by a thick flexible membrane forming a sac into which is secreted a viscous fluid that lubricates the joint. (cid:120)
