Joints
- Joints are points of contact between bones, or between bones and cartilages.
- Force generated by the muscles is used to carry out movement through joints, where the joint acts as a fulcrum.
- According to the mobility they are classified under the following heads:

- This type of joint is shown by the flat skull bones which fuse end-to-end with the help of dense fibrous connective tissues in the form of sutures, to form the cranium
- Cartilaginous or Slightly Movable Joints or Amphiarthroses:
- The bones involved are joined together with the help of cartilages
- The joint between the adjacent vertebrae in the vertebral column is of this pattern and it permits limited movements
