True joints (Diarthrosis, synovial joints) True joints or Diathrosis have a discontinuity (interruption) between the bones that surround the joint. This space is known as joint space. It separates the articular surfaces, which are covered by articular cartilage.

Answer:

False, immovable joints are not synovial joints.

Step-by-step explanation:

Synovial joints are the most movable type of joint found in the human body.

Joints are formed where bones come together.

The six types of synovial joints are :

  • pivot,
  • hinge,
  • saddle,
  • plane,
  • condyloid,
  • ball-and-socket joints.
