Page 2: Joint Types and Movement

This page details various joint types, their functions, and associated movements, with particular emphasis on synovial joints and movement terminology.

Definition: Synovial fluid is a lubricating substance secreted by the synovial membrane that lines joint cavities.

Example: Ball and socket joints, found in shoulders and hips, allow for extensive range of motion.

Vocabulary: Bursae are fluid-filled sacs located between muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones that reduce friction during movement.

Highlight: Types of bone fractures and their characteristics include greenstick, closed/simple, open/compound, comminuted, and stress fractures.

Page 3: Skeletal Disorders and Clinical Conditions

The final page focuses on various skeletal disorders, their characteristics, and anatomical classifications of the appendicular skeleton.

Definition: Osteomyelitis is a bone infection that can affect all parts of the bone, resulting from injury or systemic infection.

Highlight: Osteoporosis is often referred to as a "silent disease" due to its asymptomatic progression until fractures occur.

Example: The appendicular skeleton includes upper extremities shouldergirdles,arms,wrists,handsshoulder girdles, arms, wrists, hands and lower extremities hipgirdles,legs,ankles,feethip girdles, legs, ankles, feet.

Vocabulary: Kyphosis refers to an abnormal spinal curvature resulting in a hunchback appearance.

Page 1: Fundamental Bone Structure and Terminology

The first page introduces essential vocabulary and concepts related to bone anatomy and structure. The content covers basic bone terminology, cellular components, and skeletal classification systems.

Definition: Osteocytes are mature bone cells that form the fundamental structural units of bone tissue.

Vocabulary: Hematopoiesis refers to the formation of blood cells, a crucial function occurring within bone marrow.

Example: Long bones, such as those found in upper and lower limbs, consist of a diaphysis shaftshaft and epiphyses endsends.

Highlight: The axial skeleton, comprising the skull, spinal column, ribs, and sternum, forms the central framework of the body.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Samantha Klich

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Brad T

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
