	Joint
		Portions of bone which form a synovial joint are coated with articular cartilage and lubricated by synovial fluid; this reduces friction.
		The whole joint is contained in the joint capsule, which consists of a tough outer layer which helps to stabilise the joint, and a synovial membrane which produces synovial fluid.
		Examples of cartilaginous joints are the pubic symphysis, the joints between the ribs and the sternum, and the cartilage connecting the growth regions of immature long bones.
