Major Joints

The Scapulothoracic joint is often called the 'shoulder girdle' joint as it involves movement between the scapula and the thorax, contributing to shoulder movement.

The missing joint is the Glenohumoral (shoulder) joint, which is a ball-and-socket joint connecting the upper arm bone (humerus) and the shoulder blade (scapula). It allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.

The correct answer is the Acromioclavicular (AC) Joint, which connects the acromion process of the scapula with the clavicle. The Sacrococcygeal Joint connects the sacrum with the coccyx, the Sternoclavicular Joint connects the clavicle with the sternum, and the Temporomandibular Joint connects the jaw bone with the skull.

The correct answer is Sternoclavicular (SC) Joint. The SC joint is the joint where the clavicle meets the sternum. It is a synovial joint that allows for shoulder movement and provides stability to the upper limb.

The humeroulnar joint is a pivotal hinge joint between the humerus in the upper arm and the ulna in the forearm. It is responsible for the flexion and extension movements of the elbow.

The correct answer is the humeroradial (elbow) joint. This joint is formed by the articulation between the humerus and the radius bone in the forearm. The hip joint, shoulder joint, and knee joint are different joints in the human body that serve varying functions.

The correct answer is the distal radioulnar joint, which is responsible for pronation and supination movements in the wrist. The Proximal radioulnar joint is located near the elbow, the Carpometacarpal joint is in the hand, and the Metacarpophalangeal joint is in the fingers.

The radiocarpal joint is located at the wrist where the radius bone meets the carpal bones. The coxal joint is located at the hip, the talocrural joint is located at the ankle, and the sternoclavicular joint is located at the clavicle and sternum.

The correct answer is Ulnocarpal (wrist) joint, which refers to the joint between the ulna and the carpal bones in the wrist. The MCP joint stands for metacarpophalangeal joint in the hand, the IP joint stands for interphalangeal joint in the fingers, and the AC joint stands for acromioclavicular joint in the shoulder.

The correct answer is Intercarpal (wrist) Joint because it is a type of joint located in the wrist region, allowing for movement between the carpal bones.

The correct answer is the Metacarpophalangeal joint which is the joint between the metacarpal bones in the hand and the phalanges (finger bones). The incorrect answers are joints found in other parts of the body - tarsometatarsal joint in the foot, sternoclavicular joint in the chest area, and acromioclavicular joint near the shoulder.

The Interphalangeal (finger) Joint is the joint between the phalanges of the fingers. The Metacarpophalangeal Joint is the joint between the metacarpal bones and the phalanges. The Carpometacarpal Joint is the joint between the carpal bones and the metacarpal bones. The Radiocarpal Joint is the joint between the radius and the carpal bones in the wrist.

The joint marked by the letter A is the Atlanto-occipital Joint, located between the atlas (C1) and the occipital bone of the skull. The other options are joints in different parts of the body (shoulder, lower back, jaw) and are not relevant to the specific joint marked by letter A.

Intervertebral Joints are specifically between the vertebrae in the spine, allowing for movement and flexibility. Synovial Joints are the most common type of joint in the body, characterized by a fluid-filled joint capsule. Cartilaginous Joints are connected by cartilage and allow slight movement. Fibrous Joints are immovable joints connected by dense connective tissue.

The correct answer is Lumbosacral Joint, which is the point where the lower spine (lumbar region) connects with the sacrum in the pelvis. The other options are different joints in the body that are not the missing joint mentioned in the question.

The question is testing the knowledge of anatomical joints in the human body. The correct answer refers to the joint between the femur (thigh bone) and tibia (shin bone), known as the knee joint. The incorrect answers provide other joint options to make the question more challenging.

The correct answer is the Superior tibiofibular joint because it is the joint between the head of the fibula and the back of the tibia at the upper (proximal) end of the leg.

The joint marked with the blue arrow on the diagram is the Inferior tibiofibular joint, responsible for connecting the tibia and fibula bones in the lower leg.

The Talocrural joint is commonly known as the ankle joint and is responsible for dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the foot. The other options mentioned are different joints in the body responsible for different types of movements.

The missing joint in this question is the subtalar (ankle) joint, which is responsible for allowing the foot to rotate in multiple directions.

The correct answer, the Transverse tarsal (midtarsal) joint, is located in the foot and is responsible for allowing movements such as inversion and eversion. The incorrect options are different types of joints found in the human body, but they do not refer to the specific missing joint mentioned in the question.
