Answer 30

(1) Fibrous joints
(2) Cartilaginous joints
(3) Synovial joints

Question 31

What is the difference between Fibrous joints and Cartilaginous joints?

Answer 31

Fibrous joints - joined by fibrous connective tissue and allow little to no movement

Cartilaginous joints- joined by cartilage and allow for small movements

Question 32

What is the difference between Fibrous joints and Synovial joints?

Answer 32

Fibrous joints - joined by fibrous connective tissue and allow little to no movement

Synovial Joints- have a joint cavity between the articulating bones that allows for the wide range of motion

Question 33

What is the difference between Cartilaginous joints and Synovial joints?

Answer 33

Cartilaginous joints- joined by cartilage and allow for small movements

Synovial Joints- have a joint cavity between the articulating bones that allows for the wide range of motion
