State
A cartilaginous joint connects bones through cartilage, allowing limited movement while providing more flexibility than a fibrous joint and less than a synovial one.
Show
The joints between vertebral bodies, cushioned by fibrocartilage discs, allow the spine to bend within a limited range.
Watch for
Limited movement is not the same as no movement — a cartilaginous joint still flexes measurably under load.
