Are ellipsoid joints the same as condyloid joints?
no it is not. A condyloid joint is more like the ball and socket joint, but more slight. A saddle joint is two concave surfaces on top of each other, like a saddle
What is the name of the knuckle joint?
The interphalangeal joints in the fingers are synovial hinge joints. The thumb metacarpal is a saddle joint. The metacarpo-phalangeal joints are synovial ellipsoid joints.
What sports are condyloid joints used in?
This permits movement in two planes, allowing flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, and circumduction. Examples are: the wrist-joint, metacarpophalangeal joints ( metacarpal bones and the phalanges) and metatarsophalangeal joints (joints between the metatarsal bones of the foot and the proximal phalanges of the toes). Sports: Baseball, tennis, soccer, horseback riding and anything that uses the hands and feet.
