functional and structural |
| structural joint classification |
most widely used |
| functional |
synarthroses;immovable,ampiarthroses; slightly moveable,diarthroses; freely movable |
| structural |
fibrous; strongest joints of body IMMOVABLE,cartilaginous slightly movable and last but not leastsynovial freely movable |
| hinge (ginglymus) |
only flexion and extension (ANKLE) |
| gliding (plane) |
slight movement (intertarsal joints) |
| ellipsoid (condyloid) |
movement in two directions flexion,etension, abduction, adduction, & circumduction |
| syndesmoisis |
