Final answer:

Condyloid joints are found at the base of the fingers and the wrist. They enable angular movement along two axes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Condyloid joints are found at the base of the fingers (metacarpophalangeal joints) and at the wrist (radiocarpal joint). These joints consist of an oval-shaped end of one bone fitting into a similarly oval-shaped hollow of another bone. They allow for angular movement along two axes, enabling side-to-side and up-and-down movement.
