Female
Male
The tibia
Proximal end articulates with the talus of the ankle and the fibula
Located medially

Distal end articulate with the femur
Syndesmosis
is a type of fibrous joints
freely movable joint
the connecting fibers holding bone together are short
bones are held together by ligament or interosseous membrane
Cartilaginous joints
Gomphosis and suture are the subtype of this type of joint.
Sychondrosis and symphysis are the subtype of this type of joint.
The bones are united by cartilage
No joint cavity
Synovial fluid
Reduce friction by lubricating the joint
Released by synovial membrane
Absorbs shock
Located in outer fibrous capsule
The rounded surface of one bone articulates with a ring structure formed by another bone and a ligament.
Planar joint
Saddle joint
Hinge joint
Pivot joint
