Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the types of joints in the human body: Joints are classified into three main categories based on their structure and function—fibrous joints, cartilaginous joints, and synovial joints.
Learn the characteristics of fibrous joints: These joints are connected by dense connective tissue and do not have a joint cavity. Examples include sutures in the skull.
Learn the characteristics of cartilaginous joints: These joints are connected by cartilage and allow limited movement. Examples include intervertebral discs and the pubic symphysis.
Learn the characteristics of synovial joints: These joints are the most movable type of joint in the body and are characterized by the presence of an articular capsule, which encloses the joint cavity and contains synovial fluid for lubrication.
Recognize that the articular capsule is a defining feature of synovial joints, distinguishing them from fibrous and cartilaginous joints.
