Synovial joints have all of the following features EXCEPT one. Which one?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Synovial joints have an articular capsule, synovial fluid, and ligaments, but articulating surfaces are covered by hyaline cartilage, not synovial membrane (which lines the capsule). Answer is C, per the document.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Ligaments are fibrous tissues attaching bone to bone at joints. Cartilage cushions, tendons attach muscle to bone, diaphysis is a bone part. Answer is A, per the document.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Long bone growth occurs at epiphyseal plates (cartilage), where bone is added distally and removed proximally until ossified in adults. Answer is B, per the document.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The epiphysis (end) of a long bone articulates with other bones at joints. Metaphysis is growth region, diaphysis is shaft, symphysis is a joint type. Answer is A, per the document.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Synovial joints have synovial fluid in a cavity between bones, enabling free movement—not immovable, tendon-held, or only ball-and-socket. Answer is A, per the document.
