Solution

The correct option is D S-3 P-4
Atlas/axis: Pivotal joint (joint that allows only rotary movement)
Carpal/metacarpal of thumb: Saddle joint (saddle joints provide stability to the bones while providing more flexibility)
Between phalanges: Hinge joint (bones can only move along one axis to flex or extend)
Between cranial bones: Fibrous joint (have no joint cavity and are connected via fibrous)
Pubic symphysis: Cartilagenous joint

So, the correct option is 'd'.
