Q
What are the 3 different types of joints?
A
- Fibrous: don’t move (fixed/immovable) - long bones/flat bones - skull/gums
- Cartilaginous: synchodroses (primary cartilaginous) - hyaline cartilage connections. Symphyses (secondary cartilaginous) - fibrocartilagenous
- Synovial: synovial membrane and fluid - articular cartilage/hyaline
