This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Joint Size, Shape, Movement, Movement (locomotion) including Volant (flying), Synovial Joints vary in Number of elements, Mobility governed by Bearing Surfaces, Mobility governed by Dynamic Constraints, Many e.g. Carpal, Synovial Joints vary in Size, Physiological Functions primarily Stability, Stability governed by Static Constraints, Number of elements can be Two, small typical of ear ossicles, Adaptation e.g. Plantigrade, Physiological Functions primarily Mobility, Geometry varies with Movement (locomotion), Mobility governed by Static Constraints, Nearly Incongruent e.g. Femoro-tibial, Synovial Joints vary in Shape, Nearly Congruent e.g. Coxo-femoral, Movement (locomotion) including Saltatorial (hop), Mobility governed by Geometry, Shape extremes Nearly Incongruent
