No, the knee joint is classified structurally as a condyloid joint.
Yes because it moves in one way-like a hinge
hinge joints that allow movement in one plane, such as bending and straightening.
The knee joint is a hinge joint that allows for flexion and extension of the leg. It is formed by the articulation between the femur (thigh bone) and tibia (shin bone), as well as the patella (kneecap).
The knee is the largest hinge joint in the human body. It allows for flexion and extension movements, enabling us to walk, run, and perform various activities that involve bending and straightening the leg.
The knee contains a hinge joint, which allows movement in one plane, similar to a door hinge. The elbow contains a hinge joint as well, enabling flexion and extension movements.
The knee joint is a hinge joint, allowing movement in one plane like a door hinge. It is classified as a synovial joint, allowing for flexion and extension of the leg. The knee joint is formed by the articulation of the femur, tibia, and patella.
Hindge joint
A hinge joint is not immovable. A hinge joint has one plane of motion. A good illustration of a hinge joint is the knee joint.

The things on your legs, and the things on you arms!
No.
The hinge joint.
The knee is the largest hinge joint in the human body. It allows for flexion and extension movements, enabling us to walk, run, and perform various activities that involve bending and straightening the leg.
Your elbow is a hinge joint in your body, as is your knee.
pivotal hinge joint that allows flexion, extension as well as slight medial and lateral movement.
the muscle that is attached to the knee joint is the HINGE
Anatomically: pivotal hinge jointStructurally: synovial jointFunctionally: uniaxial jointThe knee joint joins the thigh with the leg and consists of two articulations: one between the femur and tibia, and one between the femur and patella. It is the largest and most complicated joint in the human body.The knee is a mobile trocho-ginglymus (i.e. a pivotal hinge joint), which permits flexion and extension as well as a slight medial and lateral rotation.
