Q

Explain what the difference is with circumduction and rotation.

A

Circumduction is when the distal end of the limb is making a circle and the proximal end is stationary.
Rotation is when the bone spins on an axis. Think of leaving your elbow against your body and bringing your hand to your stomach and then away again.
