Question

The joint between the adjacent vertebrae in vertebral column & permit limited movements is :-
(a) pivot joint
(b) Cartilaginous joint
(c) Fibrous joint
(d) Hinge joint

Answer 1

Answer:

b) cartilaginous joint

Explanation:

Intervertebral Disc. An intervertebral disc unites the bodies of adjacent vertebrae within the vertebral column. Each disc allows for limited movement between the vertebrae and thus functionally forms an amphiarthrosis type of joint. Intervertebral discs are made of fibrocartilage and thereby structurally form a symphysis type of cartilaginous joint.

Answer 2

Concept: Joints are classified into fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial joints. They help in the movement, support, and protection.

Given: vertebrae column

Find: Joint between vertebrae

Explanation: Cartilaginous joints help to produce restricted movement. The bones are combined with hyaline cartilage. Examples of cartilaginous joints are joints between the vertebral column, manubriosternal joints, and many more.

Hence, the answer is cartilaginous joints.
