It is a symphysis that is amphiarthrotic structurally. Amphiarthrosis is where the joints allow for limited movement. An example is in the vertebrae, where the discs can only move a certain amount. Using the same example, the discs are made of fibrocartilage, making them a symphysis type of cartilaginous joint.
