Joint movements may be nonaxial, uniaxial, biaxial, or multiaxial. Define what each of these terms means.
A) Identify the type of synovial joint seen here which allows only the movement of
flexion and extension. [type means ball and socket, hinge, pivot etc]
B)Give one example of this type of joint.
discuss the factors that determine a joint’s range of motion
