Joints present in skull are example of_______________?
Correct answer: A. Fibrous joints
- A. Fibrous joints
- B. Cartilaginous joints
- C. Synovial Joints
- D. Slightly moveable joints
Explanation
The joints between the bones of the skull are sutures, in which the bones are joined by dense fibrous connective tissue, so they are fibrous joints. Slightly movable joints are a functional category and do not specifically identify the fibrous structure of skull sutures; students may choose d because they confuse joint classification systems.
