17
Q

What are the movements allowed at synovial joints?

A
  1. Gliding: slipping movements
  2. Flexion: decreases angle of a joint
    3/ Extension: Increases angle of a joint
  3. Abduction: moving a limb AWAY from the midline
  4. Adduction: moving a limb TOWARD from the midline
  5. Circumduction: movement
  6. Rotation: movement of a bone around an axis
