Why are the ends of the bones smooth?

Which kind of joint allows bones to slide?
Hinge joints
What bones are joints?
No bones are joints.
What joint allows full movement of bones?
the shoulder joint

Why are synovial joints have greater flexibility than fixed and cartilaginous joints?
Unlike fixed joints or cartilaginous joints, where the bones are connected by either connective tissue or cartilage, the bones in synovial joints are not directly joined by anything, which allows for a much greater range of motion.
What smooth lubricated tissue on bone that helps joints move easily?
Joints may be synovial (with a cavity) or fibrous. Synovial joints are filled with synovial fluid. Fibrous joints lack this. Fibrous joints are found in between the vertebrae. Cartilage in is both joints. This can be hylaine or fibrocartilage. Both regenerate. The synovial fluid is rather slippery and allows easy movement in those joints. If this joint is suddenly and rapidly pulled, the fluid doesn't fill quickly and a "snapping" sound is heard.
What connects your bones to each other so you can bend and move?
First of all our skeletal system and bones are made of connective Tissue. By name we can get some feeling of them. and secondly our bones are connected via joints. these joints are of varied types. Sinyovial and Cartillaginous joints allows to move our muscles while bending or twisting to some extent.
What unites the bones of the human body?
Joints. The joints connect the bones into place, so it is your bones that hurt when you get bad joints in old age.
How do joints allow movement?
The two main functions of joints are for support and movement. Joints allow you to move your body and to support it and hold the bones together.
how are joints related to the bones?
Joints are the connections between bones that allow you to move.
