functions of the different components and types of synovial joints and explain the structure and function of cartilaginous and fixed joints. Most of the joints are synovial and contain synovial fluid which is a lubricating liquid. These are found in the limbs where mobility is important. A synovial joint is also known as a Diarthrosis which are freely movable joints. These types of synovial joints are the largest group with the greatest variations and can be found in the shoulder or hips. Some examples

Therapeutic Instrumental Music Performance (TIMP) is a Neurologic Music Therapy intervention (NMT) used in neurorehabilitation which employs external audio cues during music based activities in which the selection and spatial arrangement of instruments facilitates improved upper limb movement trajectories and arm kinematics (Thaut‚ 2008).

INTRODUCTION The lower limb contains two long bones‚ the fibula and tibia‚ which are situated beside each other. The fibula bone lies on the lateral side of the lower limb and forms joints with the tibia bone and the talus bone in the ankle region. Fractures of the tibia generally are associated with fibula fracture‚ because the force is transmitted along the interosseous membrane to the fibula. Fibular fractures may be complete‚ incomplete or displaced fracture. Fibular fractures are usually simple

In Dawson’s case‚ he has lived for twenty-one years and the use of his limbs has been dramatically taken from him. His quality of life can be seen as a moral issue because he would have to relearn how to function without limbs.

There are 3 main Endogenetic processes: folding‚ faulting and volcanism. They take place mainly along the plate boundaries‚ which are the zones that lay on the edges of plates. These zones are weak. Endogenetic processes cause many major landform features. MOVEMENTS: The forces coming from within the earth cause two types of movements in the earth.

I THE FUSION FALLACY If an Australian lawyer were asked about the significance of 1975 in the development of Australian law‚ he or she would no doubt point to the famous constitutional crisis that culminated‚ on Armistice Day of that year‚ in the use by the Governor-General of the ‘reserve powers’ to dismiss the government of the day.
