Question

Match List I with List II :

List - I Location of Joint		List – II Type of Joint
A.	Joint between humerus and pectoral girdle	i.	Gliding joint
B.	Knee joint	ii.	Ball and Socket joint
C.	Joint between atlas and axis	iii.	Hinge joint
D.	Joint between carpals	iv.	Pivot joint

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
• B. A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
• C. A-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
• D. A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

 Let's match the locations of joints in List I with the appropriate types of joints in List II and determine the correct answer:

1. Joint between humerus and pectoral girdle: This is a Ball and Socket joint because it allows a wide range of rotational movements similar to the shoulder joint.
2. Knee joint: This is a Hinge joint. The knee permits movement mainly in one direction, such as flexion and extension, characteristic of a hinge joint.
3. Joint between atlas and axis: This is a Pivot joint. The joint between the first vertebra (atlas) and the second vertebra (axis) of the neck allows rotation of the head, typical of a pivot joint.
4. Joint between carpals: This is a Gliding joint. The carpals in the wrist slide past each other, allowing limited movement, indicative of a gliding joint.

Thus, the correct match is:

A.	Joint between humerus and pectoral girdle	ii.	Ball and Socket joint
B.	Knee joint	iii.	Hinge joint
C.	Joint between atlas and axis	iv.	Pivot joint
D.	Joint between carpals	i.	Gliding joint

The correct answer from the options given is A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I. This matches all joints correctly with their respective joint types.
