against each other. The covering of cartilage allows the joint to work smoothly and painlessly. A capsule surrounds the joint. The space within the joint - the joint cavity - has synovial fluid. Synovial fluid nourishes the joint and the cartilage. The synovial fluid is produced by the synovium (synovial membrane) which lines the joint cavity. If you have arthritis something goes wrong with the joint(s). What goes wrong depends on what type of arthritis you have. It could be that the cartilage

and forth. When the eardrum vibrates its neighbour the malleus then vibrates too. The vibrations are then transmitted from the malleus to the incus and then to the stapes. Together the three bones increase the pressure which in turn pushes the membrane of the oval window in and out. This movement sets up fluid pressure waves in the perilymph of the cochlea. The bulging of the oval window then pushes on the perilymph of the scala vestibuli. From here the pressure waves are transmitted from the

Kinesiology Introduction: The word comes from the Greek words kinesis (movement) and kinein (to move). Kinesiology‚ also known as human kinetics‚ is the scientific study of human movement. Kinesiology addresses physiological‚ mechanical‚ and psychological mechanisms. Applications of kinesiology to human health include: biomechanics and orthopedics‚ strength & conditioning‚ sport psychology‚ rehabilitation‚ such as physical and occupational therapy‚ as well as sport and exercise. Kinesiology is
