Solution

The correct option is C Synovial joint
  • Joints are points of contact between bones, or between bones and cartilages.
  • Synovial joints are characterized by the presence of a fluid-filled synovial cavity between the articulating surfaces of the two bones. These joints help in locomotion and many other movements.
  • Hence the type of joint has a fluid-filled cavity with a significant role in locomotion is synovial joint.
  • So, the correct answer is 'Synovial joint'.
