What kind of joints are fibrous joints?
A
Immovable Joints
B
Partially Movable Joints
C
Freely Movable Joints
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A fibrous joint is a fixed joint where fibrous tissue comprised primarily of collagen connects bones. Fibrous joints are usually immoveable (synarthroses) and have no joint cavity. They are subdivided further into sutures, gomphoses, and syndesmoses. Sutures are immobile joints in the cranium.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fibrous joints are defined as the joints in which the bones are connected by fibrous tissue. They are called fixed or immovable joints as they do not allow any movement between the bones. They do not have a joint cavity, and the fibrous tissue which connects the bones is made up of collage fibres.

Detailed explanation-3: -Synarthroses are immovable joints. The singular form is synarthrosis. In these joints, the bones come in very close contact and are separated only by a thin layer of fibrous connective tissue.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fibrous joints are a type of joint where the bones are joined by strong fibrous tissue rich in collagen. These joints allow for very little movement (if any) and are often referred to as synarthroses.

Detailed explanation-5: -Fibrous joints are connected by dense connective tissue consisting mainly of collagen. These joints are also called fixed or immovable joints because they do not move. Fibrous joints have no joint cavity and are connected via fibrous connective tissue.
