Question
Chapter 5, Problem 1IP
Summary Introduction
To construct: A table to identify the joint type and the plane or planes of allowed movement for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle.
Concept introduction: Joints connect the bones and determine the plane movements of the articulating bones. On the basis of movements, they are classified as immovable joints, slightly movable joints, and freely movable joints.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Table 1 shows the types of joint and the planes of movement for shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, and ankle.
Joint | Joint type | Movement |
Shoulder (Glenohumeral) joint | Ball-and-socket joint | Triaxial |
Elbow joint | Hinge joint | Monaxial |
Wrist joint | Ellipsoidal joint | Biaxial |
Hip joint | Ball-and-socket joint | Triaxial |
Knee joint | Hinge joint | Monaxial |
Ankle joint | Hinge joint | Monaxial |
