These are types of functions of the joints.
The amphiathrotic joint is slightly moveable, the joints between the vertebra for example.
The synathrotic joint is immovable, the sutures of the skull for example.

∙ 12y agoAmphiarthrotric joints are slightly movable joints, meaning they do move just not a lot. But they are definitely NOT immovable. They are found in the axial skeleton. For example the vertebrae consists of amphiarthrotic joints between the vertebra. Now these joints don't provide a bunch of movement, but all of the joints all the way down the whole vertebra together make up to a good amount of movement, enough that a person can touch their toes and bend over/down to get things.

∙ 7y agoA symphysis joint has a pad of fibrocartilage between bones and is slightly moveable or amphiarthrotic.
For example, the pubis symphysis and the joint between bodies of vertebrae.

How many major joints in the human body?
There are three types of joints in the human body, synarthrotic, amphiarthrotic, and diarthrotic. The diarthrotic joints are also called synovial, or freely moving, joints. They are subdivided into, moaxial, biaxial, and triaxial. The six types include; ball-and-socket, pivot, gliding, ellipsoidal, saddle, and hinge.
What kind of movement does synarthrotic joints allow?
synarthrodial joints are immovable joints
Are all synovial joints freely movable?
Short answer: Yes. Long answer: There are three types of joints: fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial. Fibrous joints (seen in the skull's sutures) are always synarthrotic (immovable). Cartilaginous joints are both synarthrotic (seen in between the sternum and the first ribs) and amphiarthrotic (slightly movable). The last type of joint, synovial, comes in a variety of styles (saddle, ball-in-socket, ect.) and is always diarthrotic (moveable)
What are the joints of the axial skeleton?
They are as follows in descending order:atlantooccipital - gliding (diarthrotic)atlantoaxial - pivot (diarthrotic)intervertebral - gliding (amphiarthrotic)costovertebral - gliding (diarthrotic)sternoclavicular - gliding (diarthrotic)sternocostal - gliding (diarthrotic)sacroiliac - gliding (diarthrotic)pubic symphysis - gliding (amphiarthrotic)
What are the least movable joints?
The Thoracic Spine is the least mobile segment of the spinal column and it contributes to it's share by lengthening dynamically during movement.
What joint has amphiarthrotic and synarthrotic examples?
Cartilaginous Joints
What are the categories of joints based on their ability to move?
Synarthrotic or immovable, amphiarthrotic or slightly movable, and diarthrotic or freely movable.
How do the different kinds of joints help with movement?
There are three different categories of joints. They are: synarthrotic, amphiarthrotic, and diarthrotic.The synarthrotic joints are mostly immovable and contain cartilage between the bones. An example of these are the suture joints between the cranial bones. Amphiarthrotic joints are a bit more movable and are made of reticular fibers such as those found in the intervertebral discs. The diarthrotic joints are also called synovial joints, or freely moving joints, and comprise the largest group of joints in the human body. These joints are responsible for the overall movement of the body, like the arms and the legs.
What are the different types of diarthrotic joints?
Diarthrotic joints have free movement e.g. synovial joints of knee, elbow, shoulder synarthrotic = no movement eg skull plates (yes they are a type of joint strangely enough) amphiarthrotic = some movement eg intervertebral discs
What is the difference between syndesmosis and synchondrosis?
Syndesmosis: Amphiarthrotic (meaning they slightly move), fibrous joint held together by ligaments. Ex: joints joining fibula and tibia Synchondrosis: Synarthrotic (meaning they do not move), cartilaginous joints held together by hyaline cartilage. Ex: epiphyseal plate

What are synarthrotic joints?
Immovable.
What are the two types cartiliginous joints?
Types of cartiliginous joints: Synchondrosis Symphysis Synchondrosis joint has bands of hyaline cartilage which unite bones and an epiphyseal plate (temporary). For example between manubrium and first rib (synarthrotic). Symphysis joint has a pad of fibrocartilage between bones. For example the pubis symphysis and the joint between bodies of vertebrae. (amphiarthrotic).
Why does the thickness of hyaline cartilage have a negative affect?
It depends on which type of joint it is associated with. Th three classifications of joints are; synarthrotic, amphiarthrotic, and diarthrotic. They are all separated by hyaline cartilage, from less than paper thick to almost an inch (25mm) in the knees. So the thickness has a natural purpose of protection, having a loss of the proper thickness leads to the condition known as osteoarthritis.
Are synarthrotic joints designed for strength with flexibility?
False
What is synarthroses?
synarthrotic joints are immovable such as the bones of the skull.
Symphyses are synarthrotic joints designed for strength with flexibility?
False
