Strengthens: strengthens the joint capsule.Type 2: extra-articular ligament (runs external of the articular cavity).Type 1: intracapsular ligament (runs within the articular cavity).Poorly elastic strand of connective tissue from parallel arrays of dense collagen fibers, which insert into the joint body or joint capsule.Type B cells = fibroblast-like synoviocytes that produce glycoproteins such as hyaluronan, a major component of synovial fluid.Type A cells = macrophage-like synoviocytes that maintain synovial fluid by removing debris.Contains two types of synovial cells, or synoviocytes.

Examples of synovial joints include hinge joints, saddle joints, plane joints, and ball and socket joints. The range and axes of motion of a synovial joint are determined by the shape of its constituent parts. Diarthroses ( synovial joints) are freely movable and consist of elements (e.g., intraarticular space, synovial fluid, joint capsule) that allow low-friction movements between opposing articular surfaces and supporting structures (e.g., ligaments, menisci, articular discs). They can be grouped according to their structure (synovial, cartilaginous, and fibrous joints) or their degree of mobility ( diarthroses and synarthroses). Joints are structures in the musculoskeletal system that regulate the type and range of motion between two or more adjacent bones, enabling body parts to move harmoniously.
