Select the correct matching of the type of the joint with the example

1.	Select the correct matching of the type of the joint with the example in human skeletal systemA. Gliding joint - Between carpalsB. Cartilaginous joint - Between frontal and parietalC. Pivot joint - between third and fourth cervical vertebraeD. Hinge joint - between Humerus and pectroal girdle
Answer» Correct Answer - A The correct answer is option A #EXPLANATION: A. In gliding joints, the articulating bones can slide upon one another. B. Cartilaginous joints are slightly movable joints. In these joints, there is a pad of fibrocartilage between two adjoining bones which allows very slight movements. C. Pivot joint is a rotatory joint. Here, one bone is fixed and bears a peg-like projection of pivot. The other bone fits over the pivot by a concavity and freely rotates around. D. Hinge joint, a protuberance known as condyle at the end of one bone fits into the corresponding depression of the other. So, the joint allows movement in one place only.
