Gliding

is the finger in the human body a gliding joint?

Are our fingers a ball-and-socket joint, a fixed joint, a hinge joint, a pivot joint or a gliding joint?

Ball and Socket Joint - The ball-and-socket joint is found in the hip-bone and the shoulder and allows the most movement of all the joints. One bone (like the femur my student found) has a ball-like knob at the end of it, and the knob fits into a cup-like space on the other side. The ball-and-socket joint is what allows baseball pitchers to throw a ball with such tremendous speed.

Sliding Joint - The sliding joint is found in the vertebral column and allows small sliding movements. The vertebrae have pads of cartilage between them, and the bones slide over these pads. This is what makes the backbone so flexible.

Pivot Joint - The pivot joint allows movement turning from side to side, and your head is attached to your vertebral column with this joint. A hole in one bone fits over a pointed part of the other bone, so that one bone can turn on top of the other.

Hinge Joint - The hinge joint allows bones to move back and forth, and is found in your elbow and knee. It allows bones to move like a hinge in a door.

Fixed Joint - It might seem funny, but there is one type of joint which doesn't allow any movement at all. A joint between bones that do not move at all is called a fixed joint, and one place the fixed joint is found is in your skull. When babies are born, their skull bones are not joined together yet. In fact, there is a gap between them called the fontanel, or soft spot. However, the bones quickly grow together to protect the brain.

Based on these definitions the answer would be HINGE, because fingers can only move back and forth.
