Correct answer

Step-by-step solution

The joint between adjacent vertebrae is an example of cartilaginous joint. In this, bones involved are joined with the help of cartilage and it allows limited movement.

These are also called as amphiarthroses. These joints are neither fixed nor freely movable. Articulating bones are held together by hyaline or fibrocartilages.
