3 types of joints

A

fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial

23
Q

fibrous joints are the what joints?

A

synarthroses (immovable)

24

cartilaginous joints are?

A

amphiarthroses (partial movement)

25
Q

synovial joints are?

A

diarthroses (freely movable)

26
Q

suture: composed of a layer of dense fibrous connective tissue that unites skull bones
syndesmosis: more tissue than suture
