16
Q

PIVOT JOINT

A
  • projection from one bone articulates with a ring shaped socket allowing rotation
  • ex) cervical vertebra and 1st vertebra ring
17
Q

HINGE JOINT

A
  • allow only back and fourth movement
  • convex surface fits into a depression of bone
  • ex: elbow, knee
18
Q

SADDLE JOINT

A
  • shaped like saddle-concave in one direction convex in the other
  • allows movement front, back, side, side (limited)
  • only in thumb
19
Q

CONDYLOID JOINT

A
  • oval convex surface fits into a similar depression
  • ex) articulation of distal end of radius with the carpal bones of the wrist
  • allows side to side movement
20
Q

GLIDING JOINT

A
  • 2 bone surfaces slide over each other
  • least mobile because surrounding ligaments
  • ex: tarsal bone of ankle, carpal bone of wrist
21
Q

Flexion

Extension

A

Flexion: involves bending a joint so as to decrease the angle of the joint

Extension: involves straightening a joint, increasing the angle between the bones

22
Q

Hyperextension

Dorsiflexion

Plantar flexion

A

Hyperextension: is the extreme extension of a joint beyond its normally straight position

Dorsiflexion: involves moving the toes or foot upward

Plantar flexion: involves moving the toes or foot downward (toward the plantar surface)

23
Q

Abduction

Adduction

A

is the movement of a body part away from midline of the body

is the movement of a body part toward the midline of the body

24
Q

Circumduction

A

distal end of appendage, such as the arm or leg, moves in a circle

25
Q

Internal rotation

A

when a bone spins toward the body’s midline

26
Q

External rotation

A

when a bone spins away from the body’s midline

27
Q

Supination

A

is a movement that turns the palm upward

28
Q

Inversion

A

a foot movement that turns the sol medially, toward the other foot

29
Q

Eversion

A

a foot movement that turns the sole laterally, away from the other foot

30
Q

Protraction

A

Moves a part forward

31
Q

Retraction

A

moves a part backward
