An amphiarthrosis allows a slight amount of movement at the joint.The sutures of the skull and the gomphoses that connect the teeth to the skull are examples of synarthroses. A joint that permits no movement is known as a synarthrosis.The bones at a joint are held together by strong bands of tissue called ligaments, which allow the bones to move.

The bone marrow contains stem cells, which produce the body's red blood cells and platelets.īones can move because of the way they are joined. The soft bone marrow inside many of the bones is where most of the blood cells are made. Calcium is needed to make bones hard, which allows them to support body weight. The human skeleton is composed of both fused and individual bones supported by ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage.īones are made up of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, and other minerals, as well as the protein collagen.
