Cartilaginous joints are found between the centra of vertebrae, at pubic symphysis and between ribs and stemum.
Fibrous joints are also called as sutures or immovable joints because in these joints the adjining bones cannot move upon each other,e.g. coronal suture between frontal and parietal bonse of skull.
