A

Extension, flexion, pronation, supination. Movement is limited by surrounded bones and interosseous membrane

46
Q

Proximal radioulnar joint type

A

Pivot joint

47
Q

Proximal radioulnar movement

A

Rotation of radius, causes pronation and supination

48
Q

Distal radioulnar joint

A

Fixed joint

49
