Cartilaginous. Joints
|
|
Usually temporary to permit bone growth and typically fuse; some do not (e.g., at the sternum and rib)
|
Primary (synchondroses; hyaline cartilaginous)
|
|

Synovial Joints
|
|
Gliding and sliding movements (e.g., acromioclavicular joint)
|
Plane (arthrodial)
|
|
Uniaxial movements (e.g., elbow and knee extension and flexion)
|
Hinge (ginglymus)
|
|
Biaxial joint (e.g., wrist flexion and extension, radioulnar deviation)
|
Ellipsodial (condyloid)
|
|
Unique joint that permits movements in all planes, including opposition (e.g.,the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb)
|
Saddle (sellar)
|
|
Multiaxial joints that permit movements in all directions (e.g., hip and shoulder joints)
|
Ball and socket (enarthrodial)
