Cartilaginous Joints
an amphiarthrosis
They are both Cartilaginous Joints
Between the vertebral bodies in the cervial spine.
Big bodies
what type of joint is between bodies of vertebrae ? cartilaginous joint
- Transverse foramen (holes in the transverse processes through which travels the vertebral artery) - Uncinate processes (lip on the supero-lateral aspects of vertebral bodies)
The elastic tissue between each bone in the spine is called as intervertebral disc. It allows movement of vertebral bodies and also acts as shock absorber to the spine.
Intervertebral discs
Between the vertebral bodies in the cervial spine.
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).
Right and left pubic bodies form the symphysis. It is an important part of the hips.
The articulations of the human skull and vertebral column consist of a series of amphiarthrodial joints between the vertebral bodies, and a series of diathrodial joints between the vertebral arches. The articulations of the rat skull and vertebral column consist of cervical vertebrae which have small, transverse processes containing a hole through which nerves and blood vessels pass.
Vertebral end plates are the top and bottom portions of the vertebral bodies that interface with the vertebral discs. The vertebral end plate is composed of a layer of thickened cancellous (spongy) bone.

disce disease
The facet joints are the joints between adjacent vertebrae.
- Transverse foramen (holes in the transverse processes through which travels the vertebral artery) - Uncinate processes (lip on the supero-lateral aspects of vertebral bodies)
The elastic tissue between each bone in the spine is called as intervertebral disc. It allows movement of vertebral bodies and also acts as shock absorber to the spine.
