Match the joint types in the key to the descriptions that apply to them (More than one joint type might apply.) Key: (a) fibrous joints (b) cartilaginous joints (c) synovial joints (1) have no joint cavity (2) types are sutures and syndesmoses (3) dense connective tissue fills the space between the bones (4) almost all joints of the skull (5) types are synchondroses and symphyses (6) all are diarthroses (7) the most common type of joint in the body (8) nearly all are synarthrotic (9) shoulder, hip, knee, and elbow joints

Step 1
So, the answer is $\boxed{(a) \text{ and } (b)}$. (2) types are sutures and syndesmoses: These are types of fibrous joints. So, the answer is $\boxed{(a)}$. (3) dense connective tissue fills the space between the bones: This is a characteristic of fibrous Show more…
