amfiarthroosiin

Amfiarthroosiin refers to a type of joint in the human body characterized by limited mobility. These joints are found between bones that are connected by fibrocartilage, a strong and flexible connective tissue. The cartilage provides a degree of cushioning and shock absorption, allowing for some movement, but not the free articulation seen in synovial joints.

Examples of amfiarthroosiin joints include the pubic symphysis, which joins the two halves of the pelvis, and the intervertebral discs between the vertebrae of the spine. These joints are designed for stability and weight-bearing rather than extensive range of motion. The limited movement allows the skeletal structure to withstand significant forces and maintain its integrity. While the motion is restricted, it is still sufficient for functions such as walking, standing, and supporting the body's weight. The specific structure of each amfiarthroosiin joint is adapted to its particular role within the skeletal system.
