The suture can be defined as the rigid joint which is present between two bones. The overlapping may or may not occur in these joints.

The synchondrosis can be defined as the immovable joints which are joined together tightly with the help of cartilages.

The symphysis are the type of joints which are formed by the fibro-cartilaginous fusion between the bones.

The syndesmosis is a type of joint which is formed by the articulating bones which are joined by the ligaments only.

The joint between the distal end of the tibia and fibula is a syndesmosis joint.
