Solution

The correct option is B False
The hand and wrist are made up of many different bones, muscles and ligaments that enable a wide range of movements. Rather than a single joint, each of the fingers has three joints: Metacarpophalangeal joint (MCP)- joint at the base of the finger, Proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP)- joint in the middle of the finger and Distal interphalangeal joint (DIP)- joint closest to the fingertip. Each thumb has two joints.
So, the answer is false.
