Explanation:

Cartilaginous joints are held together by cartilage. Fibrocartilage is a type of cartilage, so a joint held together by fibrocartilage is a cartilaginous joint. Fibrous joints are held together by fibrous connective tissue. Amphiarthrosis is a functional classification (slightly movable joint), not a structural one based on tissue type. Synovial joints have a synovial cavity and are more complex with different structures like ligaments, synovial membrane etc.

cartilaginous
