Quiz #8

Question 1

Facet / Zygapophyseal Joint

Answer 1

Type of Joint: Synovial, Plane, Diarthrosis, Uniaxial

Question 2

Coupled Motions

Answer 2

Rotation and lateral flexion are always occurring together except at C1/C2.
C2 - T5: Lateral flexion is accompanied by roration on the ispilateral side
