← Human Body & HealthWhich outcome occurs when synovitis limits joint movement?
A)Cartilage degradation accelerates via proteolytic enzymes✓
B)Tensile tendon strength immediately increases
C)Osteoblast volume increases to mineralise cartilage
D)Glycolysis increases red blood cell motility
💡 Explanation
Increased enzymatic synovial fluid due to synovitis causes cartilage breakdown via protease action, because proteolytic enzymes degrade the cartilage therefore, degradation accelerates, rather than tendons strengthening, or immediate bone remodeling.
