Solution

$\begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \begin{array}{l} \text{Cartilaginous} \\ \text{Joint} \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text{- This is a type of amphiarthrosis or imperfectly movable joint.} \\ \text{- Between adjacent vertebrae in vertebral column such joints are} \\ \text{present. This allows little movement.} \end{array} \\ \hline \begin{array}{l} \text{Ball and} \\ \text{Socket Joint} \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text{- This is a synovial joint.} \\ \text{- This allows complete movement of the bones articulating.} \\ \text{- Between Humerus and Pectoral girdle such joint is found.} \\ \text{This joint allows multi-axial movement.} \end{array} \\ \hline \text{Fibrous Joint} & \begin{array}{l} \text{- They are non-movable joints.} \\ \text{- They are found between flat skull bones.} \end{array} \\ \hline \text{Saddle Joint} & \begin{array}{l} \text{- This is also a type of synovial joint.} \\ \text{- This is found in between carpal and metacarpal of thumb.} \end{array} \\ \hline \end{array}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
