- - - - Examples:
        Suture: holds skull bones together
        Syndemoses(distal end of tibia & fibula)
      - Bones united by fibrous tissue
    - - Bones connected by cartilage
      - Examples:
        Intervertebral Disc(Joint between 2 vertebrae)
        Pubic Symphysis(Joint between public bones)
    - - Found in the Joint cavity(most common)
      - Example:
        Where femur meets pelvic bone
- - - - Bone is broken into more than 3 pieces
    - - Bone is pressed inward or dented in
      - Common in skull facture
    - - Bone is crushed & collapsed on itself
    - - Ragged break from a twisting forceapplied to bone
      - Common in sports injury or can indicate child abuse
    - - Bones break incompletely
      - Common in children, whose bones have not fully ossified
- - - - Occurs directly in connective tissue membranes
      - Occurs in Flat bones of skull, mandible, ribs, & clavicles
        ALSO in Fontanels(Soft spots-still membrane)
    - - Occurs in Embryos, skeleton is primarily hyaline cartilage
      - Occurs during development, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone
      - Occurs in long, short, & irregular bones
