Fibrous joints connect bones without allowing any movement. The bones of your skull and pelvis are held together by fibrous joints. The union of the spinous processes and vertebrae are 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.

The metacarpal phalangeal joint is a condyloid joint. This type of joint allows for flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, and circumduction movements.
The wrist is a synovial joint, specifically a condyloid joint. This type of joint allows for a wide range of motion in different directions, such as flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction.
The elbow joint is a hinge joint.
The Costochondral Joint is an immovable Cartilaginous - Synchodrosis (structural classification) joint that articulates the ribs with the coastal cartilage.It's functional classification is; Synarthrosis - a type of joint permitting no movement at all.
This is a synovial joint. It is classified as pivot type of joint.
Pivot joint is the type found in the neck.
