Explore the synchondroses of the vertebral column with this 3D model focused on cartilaginous joints that unite bones via hyaline cartilage. This includes the intervertebral discs and early developmental synchondroses found in the sacrum and base of the skull. Learn how these joints absorb shock, allow limited motion, and eventually ossify with age. The visualization is ideal for understanding developmental anatomy, spinal flexibility, and the biomechanical behavior of cartilaginous articulations.
