Detailed explanation-1: -Amphiarthroses. Slightly movable joints are called amphiarthroses. The singular form is amphiarthrosis. In this type of joint, the bones are connected by hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cartilaginous Joint These joints may be slightly mobile (amphiarthroses) or immobile (synarthroses). The joint between the epiphysis and diaphysis of growing long bones is an example. The secondary cartilaginous joint, also known as symphysis, may involve either hyaline or fibrocartilage.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some of the examples of cartilaginous joints include epiphyseal plate in long bones, sternocostal joint (synchondroses), and intervertebral and pubic symphyses.
Detailed explanation-4: -They are considered amphiarthroses, meaning that they allow only slight movement and are all found at the skeletal midline.
