Across
- 7. superior movement of a body part
- 8. contains hyaline cartilage (type of cartilaginous joint)
- 11. fluid-filled joint cavity
- 12. PCL - prevents hyperflexion of the knee joint
- 16. classification of joints: fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial
- 18. classification of joints: synarthrosis, amphiarthrosis, and diarthrosis
- 20. between some skull bones (excluding mandible)
- 21. stabilize and cushion the joint
- 22. lateral rotation of the forearm
- 24. protect and reinforce joint
- 26. pointing the toes downward

- 28. dense regular connective tissue
- 30. freely mobile joint
- 31. has tendons from four muscles (SITS)
- 32. turning the sole of the foot laterally
- 33. MCL - prevents the leg from moving too far laterally relative to the thigh
- 36. also classified as amphiarthroses

Down
- 1. inferior movement of a body part
- 2. the roots of individual teeth with the sockets of the mandible and the maxillae
- 3. joint that permits flexion and extension
- 4. ACL - prevents the tibia from moving too far anteriorly on the femur
- 5. increases the angle between bones
