Types include sutures, synesmoses, and gomphoses
what type of joint is a skull suture
fibrous joint; functionally classified as a synarthrosis (Immovable)
where is articular cartilage found
covering the ends of the bone in synovial joints, reducing friction and absorbing shock
how is the pubc symphysis classified
Cartilaginous joint ( Symphysis); Functionally an amphiarthrosis (slightly movable)
what are the characterics and types of cartulagious joints
Bones connected by cartilage, without a joint cavity
Synchondrosis: Hyaline cartilage
