synarthrosis - an immovably fixed joint between bones connected by fibrous tissue (for example, the sutures of the skull)., diarthrosis - (synovial joint) joins bones or cartilage with a fibrous joint capsule that is continuous with the periosteum of the joined bones, constitutes the outer boundary of a synovial cavity, and surrounds the bones' articulating surfaces. This joint unites long bones and permits free bone movement and greater mobility. The synovial cavity/joint is filled with synovial fluid., amphiarthrosis - a joint that has limited mobility. An example of this type of joint is the cartilaginous joint that unites the bodies of adjacent vertebrae. Filling the gap between the vertebrae is a thick pad of fibrocartilage called an intervertebral disc, cartilaginous joint - a type of joint where the bones are entirely joined by cartilage, either hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage. These joints generally allow more movement than fibrous joints but less movement than synovial joints., concave - describes shapes that curve inward, like an hourglass., convex - describes shapes that curve outward, like a football (or a rugby ball).,
