Cartilaginous+Joints

**Cartilaginous Joints**
Cartilaginous joints are connected solely by cartilage and allow a little more movement than Fibrous joints, but are more restricted than the free-moving Synovial joints. Types of cartilaginous joints are the ribs and the spine. In the picture of the ribcage, you can see the cartilaginous joints (which are highlighted blue) are stationary and hold the ribs to the sternum. In this picture of the spine, you can see the cartilaginous joints holding the individual vertebrae together.
