An example of a false negative is taking an HIV test and having the test come back negative to say the patient is clean, but in reality they have HIV. Another example of a false negative is a woman taking a pregnancy test saying "not pregnant" (i.e. test is negative), but she actually is pregnant. Between those two examples, it is better to have a false negative pregnancy test because it is non life threatening.

A false positive example would be getting bad news you have cancer, when you actually don't have cancer. Another false positive example is a test saying you have a cold virus, when in actuality you don't. The first example mentioned would have the patient likely go through intense chemo treatments which would greatly affect their livelihood. The second example is a more harmless false positive as it would involve at most a flu shot if anything.

The syndesmosis can be defined as a fibrous joint held together by ligaments. Sutures are fibrous joints of tissue that link the cranial bones of the skull. A gomphosis is a mobile fibrous that binds the teeth into sockets in the mandible and maxilla. Synovial joints are joints found between bones that move against each other (e.g., shoulder bones). They (synovial joints) are the most common class of joints found in the body. A symphysis is a cartilaginous, slightly movable, joint between two bones. A saddle is a synovial joint whose opposing surfaces are concave and convex, respectively. Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis, this condition occurs when the protective cartilage surrounding the bones wears away over time. Finally, eversion refers to a type of movement of the foot which occurs in the auctioneering joint.
