Solution
The correct option is D Ball and socket - Neck
∙ Our ankle and elbow allow back and forth movement upto 180 degrees. Hinge joints are present in these parts.
∙ Fixed joints don't permit any movement and are extremely strong. They are present between various bones of the skull.
∙ In a ball and socket joint, the movement is possible nearly in all the directions allowing greatest range of motion. These joints are present in hip and shoulder.
∙ Our head moves sideways, up and down but we cannot rotate our head completely like how ball and socket joint would allow. Instead, it allows rotation about an axis alone.
