These are types of joints with limited movements. Examples are the the suture joints in the skull with little or no movements at all. The joint between the first pair of the ribs and the sternum is another example of restricted movements. During eating articulation of the teeth with the mandible is another example of joints with restricted movements.
Joints which are closely fitted cannot allow free movement because movement requires space in the joint so the bones can move in this space. So a closely fitted joint allow restricted or no movement at all. Weak joints with restricted movements are called weak because they are not well fitted closely. Strong joints with restricted movement is closely fitted, one of the example is joints of skull.
