MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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-3: -In fibrous joints (synarthrodial joint) the bones are joined by fibrous tissue, namely dense fibrous connective tissue, and no joint cavity is present. The amount of movement allowed depends on the length of the connective tissue fibers uniting the bones.

Detailed explanation-4: -A fibrous joint or a fixed joint allows no movement at all. The bones are joined together by tough fibrous tissue and there is no joint cavity. Examples in the body include the sutures in the skull.

Detailed explanation-5: -Fibrous joints are where adjacent bones are strongly united by fibrous connective tissue. The gap filled by connective tissue may be narrow or wide. The three types of fibrous joints are sutures, gomphoses, and syndesmoses. A suture is the narrow fibrous joint that unites most bones of the skull.
