Solution
The correct option is D Pelvic joint
The pelvic joint is present in the hip region. One of the lowermost vertebrae of the vertebral column is joined to the pelvic bone (hip bone). The pelvic joint is capable of very little movement. The bones in the knee and arm have hinge joints. Fixed joints are present on the skull and do not allow any movement. Pivot joints allow movement in a single plane and are found where the neck meets the head.
