Characteristics

Examples

Fluid filled synovial cavity between two bones

Joint between atlas and axis

The joint between atlas an axis in the pivot, which is an example of synovial joint characterised by the presence of a fluid -filled the synovial cavity between the articulating surface of the two bones. Knee joint (hinge joint) is a synovial joint characterised by the presence of fluid-filled synovial cavity between the articulating surface of the two Bones. Fluid cartilage between two bones having limited movements is slightly movable joint. In freely movable joints fluid filled between two joints provides a cushion in gliding joint. the articulating bones can slide upon another.
