There is only one type of hinge joint. The knee is the largest hinge joint in the body.

Do synovial joints permit little movement of the articulating bones?
No, synovial joints joints are freely movable joints. There are six types of synovial joints: gliding (arthrodial), hinge (ginglymus), pivot (trochoid), ellipsoid, saddle, and ball and socket.
What joints have full movement?
The joints in the body that have the most movement are called synovial joints, or freely moving joints. Technically they are classified as diarthrotic joints. The difference between synovial joints and the other types of joints is that they contain a synovial sheath that supplies them with synovium, a lubricating fluid. Of the six different types of synovial joints the ball-and-socket joints have the greatest amount of movement. The four ball-and-socket joints in the human body are the ileofemoral joints, hip joints, and the glenohumeral joints, the shoulders.
What are the six different types pf joints?
There are six types of synovial joints in the body. They are also called freely movable joints. They consist of: ball-and-socket, hinge, pivot, saddle, ellipsoidal, and gliding. The gliding joints (carpal bones) aka planar joints (move in a plane). The ellipsoidal joints (metacarpals) aka condylar joints.
Are bony joints the most common types of joints?
There are knees and elbows, they are the major joints.
What are the characteristics of the three major types of joints?
synovial, cartilaginous, and fibrous

How many different types of joints are there in a human skeleton?
Fibrous joints connect bones to minimize movement. The bones of your skull and pelvis are held together by fibrous joints. Cartilaginous joints are joints in which the bones are attached by cartilage. These joints allow for only a little movment, such as in the spine or ribs. Synovial joints allow for much more movement than cartilaginous joints. Cavaties between bones in synovial joints are filled with synovial fluid. This fluid helps lubricate and protect the bones. Bursa sacks contain the synovial fluid.
Most joints of the body are?
synovial joints
What are the characteristics of the three major types of joints?
synovial, cartilaginous, and fibrous
Where is sandoval fluid in the human body?
Synovial fluid fills the area near a Synovial joint. The fluid is stringy and has egg like consistency. It lubricates the motion of the bones forming the joint. Other types of joints are cartilaginous joints and fibrous joints. Synovial joints themselves are of various types - such as gliding, hinge, pivot, saddle, ball and socket.
What type of joints are reinforced by ligaments?
Synovial joints.
What is a membrane found in most joints?
Synovial Membranes
