Joints.

    The place where two bones meet is called a joint. There are two types of joints in every person's body: fixed joints and moving joints.

Fixed joints are exactly as they sound - they are fixed in place and don't move at all. Moving joints are the ones that allow you to ride your bike, eat cereal, plant a flower, and play a video game - the ones that allow you to twist, bend, and move different parts of your body
