This is also known as surgical ankylosis.arrow_forwardIdentify each of the following joints as synovial, fibrous, or cartilaginous.a. Pubic symphysis ________b. Elbow joint ________c. Epiphyseal plate ________d. Frontal suture ________e. Gomphosis ________arrow_forwardBelow is the description of two joints. Choose the joint that is less likelyto become injured. Joint A - diarthosis joint; two long bones join to form it; capable of flexion and extension only; non-weight bearing.
