* The cartilage slowly degenerates, and as the bone ends become exposed, spurs (small bumps) of new osseous tissue are deposited on them in a misguided effort by the body to protect against the friction. * These spurs decrease the space of the joint cavity and restrict joint movement. Osteoarthritis * It affects mainly the articular cartilage, although the synovial membrane often becomes inflamed late in the disease. * Two major distinctions between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are that osteoarthritis first afflicts the larger joints (knees, hips) and is due to wear and tear, whereas rheumatoid arthritis first strikes smaller joints and is an active attack of the cartilage. Diseases Rheumatoid arthritis imp It is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system of the body attacks its own tissues - in this case, its own cartilage and joint linings. * It is characterized by inflammation of the joint, which causes swelling, pain, and loss of function.

Chapter 4 Avimal Kingdom When you look around, you will observe different animals with differed structures and forms. As over a million species of animals have bees described till now, the need for classification becomes all the mote important. The classification also helps in assigning a systematic posithen to newly described species. 4.1 Basis or Classmication Inspite of differences in structure and form of different animals, there at fundamental features common to various individuals in relation to the arrangement of cells, body symmetry, nature of coelom. patterns a digestive, circulatory or reproductive systems. These features are uset as the basis of animal classification and some of them are discussed bere 4.1.1 Levels of Organisation Though all members of Animalia are multicellular, all of them do na exhibit the same pattern of organisation of cells. For example, in sponges the cells are arranged as loose cell aggregates, 1.e., they exhibit cellula level of organisation. Some division of labour (activities) occur amon the cells, In coelenterates, the arrangement of cells is more complex. Hen the cells performing the same function are arranged into tissues, hence : called tissue level of organisation. A still higher level of organisation, Le. organ level is exhibited by members of Platyhelminthes and other higha phyla where tissues are grouped together to form organs, each specialised for a particular function. In animals like Annelids, Arthropods, Molluscs
