Solution

The correct option is A Hinge
In hinge joints, the ends of the bones forming the joint, fit together like a hinge on a door, and movement is therefore restricted to only in one plane.
Examples of hinge joints are the elbow joint, knee joint, ankle joint, etc.
So, the correct answer is option C.
