Definitions:

Amphiarthrotic Joints

Partially movable joints that allow for limited movement, providing flexibility and stability, such as the intervertebral discs of the spine.

Synarthrotic Joints

A type of joint characterized by very limited or no movement because the bones are connected by fibrous tissue or cartilage.

Cartilaginous Joints

Type of joint where the bones are united by cartilage, allowing for more limited movement than synovial joints.

Gomphosis

A type of joint that binds the teeth to bony sockets in the maxillary bone and mandible.
