(i) Fixed joint is a type of joint which does not allow any movement.

(ii) The lower end of the upper arm bone is in the shape of a 'knob' and the upper end of lower arm bones is in the shape of a 'cup'. The knob of the upper arm bone fits into the cup of lower arm bones to form a hinge joint at the elbow.
