Can anyone give some examples for fixed and sliding joints in the human skeleton?
Examples of fixed joints in the human skeleton include the sutures between the bones of the skull, which are immovable. In contrast, examples of sliding joints include the joints between the carpal bones in the wrist, allowing for limited movement.
What body part is the sliding joint found in?
There are two places where sliding joints can be found: between the vertebrae and in the wrist.
What are the joints between the carpals and tarsals?
The joints between the carpals (wrist bones) are called intercarpal joints, while the joints between the tarsals (ankle bones) are known as tarsal joints. These joints allow for movement and flexibility in the hands and feet.
What is non-axial joints?
Non-axial joints are joints where the bones have limited movement mainly in a plane such as gliding joints in the wrists and ankles. These joints allow for simple movement without rotation, like sliding or gliding movements. Non-axial joints provide stability and support for the body.
What are the types of fixed joint?
The types of fixed joints are suture joints, gomphosis joints, and synostosis joints. Suture joints are found in the skull, gomphosis joints are where teeth articulate with the jawbone, and synostosis joints are where bones have fused together, such as in the skull bones of infants.

An a example of a Slightly moveable joint?
an example of a slightly moveable joint would be the sternoclavicular joint. This is the joint between your collarbone and your sternum (chest). There is some movement at this joint, which is what allows you to shrug or straighten your shoulders, but not nearly as much as one would find in the elbow or hip joints
What are the types of joints in skeletal system?
sliding, hinge and balla and socket
What are the three joints that act as fulcrums for the levers in the body?
ball and socket joint, sliding/gliding joint, and hinge joints
What is the purpose for a sliding joint?
Sliding joints are found in your carpal bones, they are still bound with ligaments, although they allow for slight movement. A sliding joint is also a plane joint.
