The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Let's match the types of joints with their correct locations:

  1. Cartilaginous Joint: These joints involve cartilage and are typically found between adjacent vertebrae in the vertebral column as they allow for slight movement and cushioning. Hence, match A with option II.
  2. Ball and Socket Joint: A highly mobile joint allowing for rotation and several directions of movement. This type is found between the humerus and pectoral girdle. Therefore, match B with option IV.
  3. Fibrous Joint: These are immovable joints made of fibrous tissue, found between flat skull bones. Thus, match C with option I.
  4. Saddle Joint: This joint allows movement along two planes, found between carpal and metacarpal of the thumb. Therefore, match D with option III.

Conclusively, the correct matches are:

  • A - II: Cartilaginous Joint - Between adjacent vertebrae in vertebral column.
  • B - IV: Ball and Socket Joint - Between humerus and pectoral girdle.
  • C - I: Fibrous Joint - Between flat skull bones.
  • D - III: Saddle Joint - Between carpal and metacarpal of thumb.

The correct answer is: A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.
