Vertebrae are connected by gliding joints.
the ball-and-socket joint, hinge joint, and glide joint
The skull, ribs, and toe bones are not connected to the knee joint.
Bones that are involved are the sternum and the ribs.
Glide joint
It is a gliding joint since,the wrist and ankle joints have flattened ends of bones that can glide against each other.
gliding joint, also known as a plane joint or planar joint, is a common type of synovial joint formed between bones that meet at flat or nearly flat articular surfaces. Gliding joints allow the bones to glide past one another in any direction along the plane of the joint — up and down, left and right, and diagonally.
Elbow Joint with the shoulder joint and wrist joint as stabilizing joints
Cartilage in the elbow joint and knee joint cushion the bones in the joints so the easily glide over each other. As you age, these become thinner and finally disappear. The joint then are very painful.
Gliding joints allow bones to slide along each other such as the wrists and ankles. Also known as a synovial joint, these bones use synovial fluid to glide more smoothly.
articular cartilage
This kind of joint allows bones to glide over one another and provide a slight movement. These bones have flat ends and can move from side to side as well as back and forth. The joints at the ankle and the wrist as well as the joints between the vertebrae are examples of gliding.
Where two bones meet is called a joint.
