Major types of joints: held together by (example): Examples (how much movement?) 1. Fibrous joints – connective tissue fibers a. Sutures – between pairs of flat bones of the skull (immovable joints); short fibers b. Syndesmosis – between distal ends of the tibia and fibula (immovable to limited movement); longer fibers 2. Cartilaginous joints – hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage a. Symphysis – between vertebrae; between pubic bones
(limited movement); fibrocartilage b. Synchondrosis – first rib and sternum; upper rib cage (immovable joints); hyaline cartilage 3. Synovial joints – hyaline/articular cartilage a. Knee joint b. Shoulder joint c. Hip joint d. Elbow joint
(allow free movement)
