Question
synarthrotic joints
are immovable joints
characterize all cartilaginous joints
have large joint cavities
are found only in adults
Synarthrotic joints are a type of joint in the body. By definition, synarthrotic joints are immovable. Cartilaginous joints can be amphiarthrotic (slightly movable) in addition to potentially being synarthrotic in some cases (but not all cartilaginous joints are synarthrotic). Synarthrotic joints do not have large joint cavities (that is a feature of diarthrotic joints). Also, synarthrotic joints are not found only in adults (for example, the joints between some bones in a baby's skull are synarthrotic).
