Match the following. a. Hinge joint p. joints between bones of vertebral column. b. Gliding joint q. shoulder joint c. Pivot joint r. ankle joint d. Ball and socket joint s. joint between first and second vertebra

When two or more bones meet, a joint is formed. Hinge joint can be found in ankles. Hinge joint allows back and forth movement as we can observe with the movement of hinged doors. Gliding joint can be found in between the bones of the vertebral column or spine. Here the units of column, the vertebrae move past to each other under this type of joint. Pivot joint occurs between the first and second vertebra where a single bone fits into a ring of tendons. This joint allows sideways movement as observed in the movement of our head. The shoulder joint is an example of ball and socket joint. With the help of this joint we are able to move our arm with so much freedom. Hence, a. Hinge joint r. ankle joint b. Gliding joint p. joints between bones of vertebral column. c. Pivot joint s. joint between first and second vertebra d. Ball and socket joint q. shoulder joint
