                    The type of joint between sternum and ribs in human beings is:                                                               

    A)                 fibrous joint

    B)                 gliding joint

    C)                 angular joint

    D)                 cartilaginous joint

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Cartilaginous joints are found between the centra of vertebrae; at pubic symphysis; and between ribs and sternum.                 Fibrous joints are also called as sutures or immovable joints because in these joints the adjoining bones cannot move upon each other e.g.. Coronal suture between frontal and parietel bones of skull.                 In gliding joints, two bones can slide upon each other. e.g., Joints between carpais in wrist. In angular joints one bone is movable on another bone in two planes side to side and back and forth e. g., Wrist joints.
