Complete each sentence by dragging the proper word or phrase into the appropriate position. Bones that join together and are held in place with threads of collagen, form a(n) synarthrosis joint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Synarthrosis are those joints where the bones do not move among themselves, characterized by the presence of fibrous tissue in the interosseous space, that is, synarthrosis is made up of two bone ends plus a type of tissue that joins (bones are connected by collagen fibers) these elements and maintains the stiffness between the bone pieces. These types of joints are found in the skull and long growing bones.

Answer:

synarthrosis

Step-by-step explanation:

Two or more bones can glue together to form what is known as a joint. Joints can be moveable or immovable depending on the connective tissues and the bones involved.

synarthrosis is a type of fibrous joint that permits very minimal or no movement. They are called fibrous joints because they are held together by fibrous connective tissues with threads of collagen. Synarthrosis are usually located at areas protecting delicate internal organs. For example, the sutures consisting of skull bones protecting the brain. Another example is the cartilaginous joint that protects the heart which consists of the manubrium and body of the sternum
