Across
  1. 5. Fluid is fluid inside joints that lubricates and reduces friction.
  2. 6. is smooth, flexible tissue that covers bone ends to reduce friction and absorb shock.
  3. 8. is a place where two or more bones meet, allowing movement.
  4. 9. is straightening a joint, increasing the angle (e.g., kicking a ball).
  5. 11. Bone is thin and flat, protecting organs and providing muscle attachment (e.g., ribs).
  6. 12. Joint allows movement in one direction, like a door (e.g., knee, elbow).
Down
  1. 1. and Socket Joint allows movement in all directions (e.g., shoulder, hip).
  2. 2. is strong, flexible tissue that connects muscle to bone.
  3. 3. is the body’s framework that provides support, protection, and movement.
  4. 4. is tough tissue that connects bone to bone and keeps joints stable.
  5. 7. Bone is longer than wide and acts as a lever for movement (e.g., femur).
  6. 10. is bending a joint, decreasing the angle (e.g., bicep curl).
