Task 2 I will be explaining the 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

Actions of Thyroid Hormone and Mechanism of Graves’ Disease Thyroid hormones are capable of acting at nearly every organ system in the human body. They promote bone formation‚ increase basal metabolic rate‚ heat production‚ oxygen consumption‚ and they alter the cardiovascular and respiratory systems resulting in an increased blood flow and oxygen delivery to the tissues. A quick summary of thyroid hormone synthesis‚ taken directly from the Kopp article‚ is included at the end of this learning

decreases the elasticity of the artery wall. Arteriolosclerosis (hardening of small arteries‚ the arterioles) is the product of collagen deposition‚ but also muscle wall thickening and deposition of protein ("hyaline"). Calcification‚ occasionally even ossification (formation of complete bone tissue) occurs within the deepest and oldest layers of the sclerosed vessel

the student is younger the bones in the foot have not fully solidified. Consequently‚ if the student were to try pointe‚ their feet would not be strong enough to hold their weight‚ and therefore might injure their bones. At age twelve the bone ossification is only about 75% complete. Around thirteen or fourteen the fusion has finished‚ although the bones will continue to harden until
