Joint whose cylindrical surface of one bone articulates with ring of bone and ligament Joint whose articulating surfaces are nearly flat or slightly curved.Ĭonvex surface of one bone articulates with concave surface of another. Oval shaped condyle of one bone articulates with elliptical cavity of another Joint with a ball shaped head of one bone articulating with a cup shaped socket of another Layer of hyaline cartilage that covers the articular ends of the bones of a synovial joint. Joints that consist of articular cartilage, a joint capsule, and a synovial membrane which secretes synovial fluid. Joint in which the articular surfaces of the bones are covered by a thin layer of hyaline cartilage, which in turn is attached to a pad of springy fibrocartilage. epiphyseal plate connects diaphysis to epiphyses

Joint in which bands of hyaline cartilage unite the bones (ex. Joints connected by hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage peglike root of tooth fastened to a jawbone)

Joint formed by the union of a cone shaped bony process in a bony socket ( ex. Joints found only between flat bones of the skull and are united by a thin layer of dense connective tissue called a sutural ligament

Joints which are bound by a sheet of dense connective tissue (interosseous membrane) or bundle of dense connective tissue (interosseous ligament) Joints in which the connective tissue holding them together contains many collagenous fibers
