In which of the following joint muscles are arranged in the same plane as that of joint?
Correct answer: D. Between femur and tibia.
- A. Between radius and ulna.
- B. Between ulna and scapula
- C. Between humerus and scapula
- D. Between femur and tibia.
Explanation
The femur-tibia joint is the knee joint, a synovial hinge-type joint whose principal movements occur mainly in one plane. The radius-ulna and other listed upper-limb articulations have different movement arrangements, so option a may be chosen by confusing forearm rotation with hinge movement.
