Summary Introduction
To review:
Compare and contrast the strength as well as the stability of a joint in relation to the amount of joint mobility.
Introduction:
The junctions, at which two or more bones join, is known as joints. It is also termed as articulations. The function and the range of motion are determined by the anatomy of the particular joint.
