Solution

The incorrect pair is Option (a) Hinge joint - between humerus and pectoral girdle

The joint present between humerus and pectoral girdle is ball and socket joint. Henge joint is present between atlas and axis not between humerus and pectoral girdle. The elbow, knee, ankle and interphalangeal joints are the examples of hinge joints.

Rest of the pair are correct regarding to the presence of joints.
