movable joints are also known as synovial joints. These joints are characterised by the presence of a capsule b/w the articulating bones (forming joints b/w two or more bones) The ends of these bones are held close together by a sleeve of fibrous tissue and the capsule is lubricated with a small amount of fluid (the synovial fluid)
