The answer is: between the intercarpal joints of the wrist.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Hip joint: The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint, which allows for a wide range of movements including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. It is not primarily associated with gliding movements.

  2. Atlantoaxial joint in the neck: This joint is a pivot joint, which allows for rotational movement of the head. It is not associated with gliding movements.

  3. Between the intercarpal joints of the wrist: The intercarpal joints are plane joints, which allow for gliding movements. These joints enable the small bones of the wrist to slide over one another, facilitating the flexibility and range of motion of the wrist.

  4. Elbow joint: The elbow joint is a hinge joint, which primarily allows for flexion and extension. It is not associated with gliding movements.

Summary: Gliding movements most likely occur between the intercarpal joints of the wrist, as these are plane joints designed to allow such movements.

Summary One effect of the Crusades was that a larger portion of western Europe became familiar with the goods of the East. A lively trade subsequently developed along a variety of routes known collectively as the silk Road to supply the demand for these products. Brigands and greedy middlemen made the trip along this route expensive and dangerous. By 1492, Europe-recovered from the Black Death and in search of new products and new wealth-was anxious to improve trade and communications with the rest of the world. Venice and Genoa led the way in trading with the East. The lure of profit pushed explorers to seek new trade routes to the Spice Islands and eliminate Muslim middlemen. Portugal, under the leadership of Prince Henry the Navigator, attempted to send ships around the continent of Africa. Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile hired Columbus to find a route to the East by going west. As strong supporters of the Catholic Church, they sought to bring Christianity to the East and any newly found lands, as well as hoping to find sources of wealth.
