Correct movement and positioning of joints are important for maintaining proper alignment and function of the body. It helps prevent injuries, reduces wear and tear on the joints, and allows for efficient movement and muscle activation. Improper movement and positioning can lead to pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility.
Cartilaginous joints that exhibit amphiarthrosis allow for slight movement, which is important for absorbing shock and providing flexibility in the joint. This type of movement is crucial in areas like the spine or pelvis, where stability and mobility are needed. Amphiarthrosis also helps distribute forces evenly across the joint, reducing wear and tear on the tissues.
The coefficient of friction for synovial joints is generally low, ranging from 0.01 to 0.03. This low friction allows smooth movement of the joints without excessive wear and tear. The synovial fluid within the joint cavity helps reduce friction by providing lubrication between the articulating surfaces.
No, being double-jointed does not cause arthritis. Double-jointedness, also known as hypermobility, is a condition where joints move beyond the normal range of motion. Arthritis, on the other hand, is a joint disease involving inflammation that causes pain and stiffness.

Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is the wear and tear on the joints. Bilateral means affecting two sides equally, symmetry.
There is wear and tear damage at the facet joints (the places where the "wings" of the vertebrae meet each other), but not at the end plates (the flat parts of the vertebrae that touch the disks).l
RheumatoidOsteoarthritis.
The synovial joint is so called because the gap formed by the two articulating bones contains synovial fluid, which is a clear viscous fluid which lubricates the joints (as well as the sheaths of tendons) to reduce wear and tear.
Full body workout, good aerobics, less wear and tear on joints
The most common joints affected by osteoarthritis are weight bearing joints like the knees and hips. This is why it is important for people prone to OA to keep their weight to a healthy minimum. This reduces wear and tear on those joints.

Sesamoid bones. They provide support and protection against wear and tear on the tendon as it moves over joints. They can be found in areas like the hands, feet, and knees.
Some diseases associated with the skeleton include osteoporosis (weakening of bones), osteoarthritis (wear and tear of joints), scoliosis (abnormal curvature of the spine), and rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune disease affecting joints).
