Vedclass · Answer

(B) Cartilaginous joints are slightly movable joints. In these joints,the adjacent bones are joined together by cartilage. The discs of white fibrocartilage are strong but more elastic and compressible than white fibrous tissue. These joints hold the bones together at the joints between the bodies of vertebrae,at the pubic symphysis,and between the sternum and ribs. The bones exhibit limited movement at such joints through the compression of the cartilage discs.
