Q

Movement: Flexion

A

Occurs when the angle between articulating surfaces is decreased. In the fetal position, the body is in flexion.

Q

Movement: Extension

A

Occurs when the angle between articulating surfaces is increased. In anatomical position, the body is in extension. Extension may occur when the body returns to anatomic position from a flexed position.Hyperextension is used to describe a joint position which is past anatomic position. The movement is still considered extension but the position is considered hyperextension.
