Which of the following joints would allow no movement?
Fibrous joint
Cartilaginous joint
Synovial Joint
Synovial Joint
A.
Fibrous joint
Fibrous joints are immovable joints in that occur between the bones of the cranium and in the tooth sockets. They do not allow movement because the bones are held firmly together by bundles of strong white collagen fibres. The immovable joints are often known as the sutures. The periosteum that covers the bones dips between them as a septum
