The pubic symphysis joint is a cartilaginous joint (gliding joint) that allows limited movement. It can give way slightly during childbirth. A person has another type of symphysis joint in the mandible. This joint is at the point of the chin.
a couple of examples of symphysis joint would be:
the intervertebral discs that you fine between vertebrae in the spinal column or
pubic symphysis which is cartilage that you find in the pelvis girdle which resist forces at the hip
You have secondary cartilage joint at pubic symphysis. Here the plate of cartilage persists for life time. You get some sort of movement here as compared to primary cartilage joint. The plate of cartilage does not persist for life in primary cartilage type of joint.
Anatomists classify a symphysis as an amphiarthrosis.
The pubic symphysis is a amphiarthrosis.
The pubic symphysis is a gliding fibrous joint similar to the most of the joints between the vertebra in the spinal column.
What is an example of a symphysis
It is fibrocartilaginous joint :)

the joint is a symphysis and is the region where the body of the sternum articulates with the xiphoid process

There are two articulations: the manubriosternal (sternomanubrial) and xiphisternal (xiphisternal)joints.The manubriosternal joint is between the manubrium and the body of the sternum.The sternal angle indicates the manubriosternal joint. In adults this is a secondary cartilaginous joint (symphysis).Xiphisternal (xiphosternal) joints are between the xiphoid process and body of the sternum is a primary cartilaginous joint (synchrondrosis) and these bones are united by hyaline cartilage. By age 40 this joint has ossified.

We call cartilage that is high in fiber fibrous cartilage. Fibrous cartilage is found in the intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis.
Cartilaginous Joint, Symphysis
Fibrocartilage is an extra strong type of cartilage, it is made up of white fibrous tissue and cartilaginous fibres which are arranged in an orderly manner. It also contains an abundant supply of Type I Collagen. This combination of fibres gives fibrocartilage its strong, flexible and elastic properties.Because of its strength and durability, fibrocartilage is found in areas of the body which are subjected to the most strain and impact such as the spine, knees and pelvis, where it provides support and strength and acts as a shock absorber.
That is a tough question because, essentially, they are all important. If I had to pick just one, and only one, I would pick the pubic symphysis. It is the joint made of fibrocartilage that is between the two pubic bones. It becomes soft and elastic just before a woman gives birth to her baby. If it does not allow the pubic bones to open up, then the delivery of the baby would be hindered. So, I would say it is the most important joint because many of us would not be here today if it did not work properly.

Pivot joint is the type found in the neck.

The type of joint found in the neck is known as a pivot joint. This is what will allow you to move your head in all directions.
