CAMP FOSTER, Okinawa â The U.S. Navy hospital on Camp Lester was built at the height of the Cold War, a time when the U.S. military ran the island under an occupation government and issued its own yen currency for G.I.s to spend off base.
There are six types of synovial joints: gliding, condoloid, saddle, hinge, ball and socket, and pivot joints. Gliding joints allow for smooth movement in several directions along a plane or other smooth surface.The articulation is like two plates sliding across each other. An example would be the carpal bones of the wrist, which form a gliding synovial joint.liding joints allow for smooth movement in several directions along a plane or other smooth surface.

  Synovial joints allow for movement between the articulating bones (in this case the sternum and the clavicle). The articulating bones are covered in articular cartilage, â¦ which are connected with ligaments and lined with a synovial membrane.There is a fluid-filled sac between these types of joints to reduce the amount of friction with movement and the fluid inside of these sacs is called synovial fluid.he synovial joint is so called because the gap formed by the two articulating bones contains synovial fluid, which is a clear viscous fluid which lubricates the joints (as we â¦ ll as the sheaths of tendons) to reduce wear and tear. 2 people found this useful.
