Joints and articulations are part of the skeletal system. I have found in more and more Human A&P 1 classes that they are typically talked about separately. This is a good thing! There is so much you have to learn in the skeletal system alone, that having Joints and Articulation discussed in a different section give you, the student, a breather as it where.
Quick (lame) A&P 1 Joke: What did one bone say to the other bone? What are you doing in a joint like this.
