The joints between bones of the skull are immovable and called sutures.
The three pairs of coxal bones are separate at birth, but by the age of ten, they have become fused together; there is no movement between the ilium, ischium and pubis.
The sacrum, also fused, articulates with the innominates at two joints called the right and left sacroiliac joints, or SIJs. These joints have a small amount of movement.
The innominates are joined at the bottom front of the pelvis to the symphysis pubis, a piece of tough cartilage. The right and left pubic symphysis joints are also called the PSJs. There is very limited movement at these joints, though they become more flexible in women during pregnancy and childbirth.
The sacrum and coccyx (or tailbone) also have a joint, called the sacrococcygeal joint, with a small range of movement. This joint is important in the functioning of the muscles of the pelvic floor and spine.
Fixed joints are formed by the skull bones.
sutures
This called a suture. It is an immovable joint where two bones in the skull meet to form this joint.
The atlantoccipital joint which is a gliding joint, not as some people believe it to be a pivot joint. The pivot joint in this area is the atlantoaxial joint which is between C1 & C2 and doers not come into contact with the skull.
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint. The joints between the skull plates are fused joints (no movement).
The only bone in the face that has a dairthrotic joint is the jawbone, or mandible. A diarthrotic joint is one that can move freely, like your knee or shoulder. The rest of the skull is synarthrotic, meaning fixed.
you can find a gliding joint in maybe your skull and your spine
This called a suture. It is an immovable joint where two bones in the skull meet to form this joint.
An immovable joint. (sutures joining the bones of the skull)
Fixed joint. When you are born, there are gaps in your skull, then they start to get put together and it becomes a fixed joint.
The jaw joint
An immovable joint. (sutures joining the bones of the skull)
The lambdoid suture articulates with the parietal and occipital bone of the skull. Joint is another name for suture when talking about 2 bones connecting in skull.
The atlantoccipital joint which is a gliding joint, not as some people believe it to be a pivot joint. The pivot joint in this area is the atlantoaxial joint which is between C1 & C2 and doers not come into contact with the skull.
In babies the skull joint is the fontanel (fontanelle) which helps in birth due to its flexibility but in the adult the skull joint is a fixed joint or a synarthrotic joint (immovable) called a suture.

The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint. The joints between the skull plates are fused joints (no movement).
A fibrous joint is an immovable joint. An example would be the bones in the skull.
