The cell is considered the functional unit because it is the basic building block of all living organisms. Cells perform various functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. They work together to form tissues, organs, and systems, enabling the body to function as a whole. Therefore, the cell is the correct answer as it is the fundamental unit responsible for the functioning of the body.

The skeletal membrane that lines joint cavaties
- Synovial
- Periosteum
- Serous
- Mucus
Correct Answer

A. Synovial

Explanation

The correct answer is synovial. The synovial membrane is a thin connective tissue membrane that lines the joint cavities. It produces synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints and reduces friction between the bones during movement. The synovial membrane also helps in providing nutrients to the articular cartilage and removing waste products from the joint space.

- Moisturize
- Keep organs in place
- Lubricate and reduce friction
- Stimulate
Correct Answer

A. Lubricate and reduce friction

Explanation

Synovial fluid is a viscous fluid found in the joints of the body. Its primary purpose is to lubricate the joints and reduce friction between the moving surfaces of the bones. This lubrication allows for smooth and painless movement, preventing wear and tear on the joint surfaces. Additionally, synovial fluid helps to nourish the cartilage and keep it healthy. Therefore, the correct answer is "lubricate and reduce friction."
