a. the position that both of the articular surfaces are in the maximum congruency status for a joint, resulting in the greatest mechanical stability for that joint b. In the close-packed position, most ligaments and capsules surrounding to the joint are taut c. for the glenohumeral joint the close-packed position is abduction of 90º and full external rotation

∙ 14y agoThe Closed-Packed Position of the hip joint (or "acetabulofemoral joint" in medical terminology) is a combination of full extension (20°), abduction (50° with hip extended), and internal rotation (40o).
Note: The Closed-Packed Position and Highest Joint Congruency (good contact with a joint surface) are not correlated.

What has a definite shape and volume because its particles are packed tightly together and stay fixed in position?
This is the description of a solid.
Difference between ionic and crystal radii?
Crystal Radii is also known as "Metallic Radii ". It is defined as "half the distance between the nuclei of two adjacent metal atoms in the metallic closed packed crystal lattice". It is used for metal atoms which are assumed to be closely packed spheres in the metallic crystal. As for ionic radii .... I don't know.

What is close packed directions?
Closed packed derections.. are derections of the lines drawn through atoms such that no void space is in bitween.. Refer this, i also got the idea from here http://books.google.lk/books?id=wh4v6UWjYdIC&pg=PA5&dq=close%2Bpacked%2Bdirections&hl=en&ei=vo3WTKLbIYKYvAPp_ZXqCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCYQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=close%2Bpacked%2Bdirections&f=false
What is the different between solids and liquids in terms of mass?
Of course, solid has a heavier mass than liquid but there is a specific reason. This is because solid, the particles are packed closely together and because they form a material that is packed so closely, it makes it have more weight. Water has a less amount of mass because it is loosely packed and can be separated like when you pour water, it separates which means it has a lower mass. Remember that solid is closely packed together so it gathers as one material and doesn't separate while liquid is loosely packed and can be separated.
Open or closed hip position in gymnastics?
It depends what the move before it and after, and how easy it will be to exit it.
What is the close packed position of all the joints?
Left or right arm abducted (away from the body) 180 degrees superiorly (arm raised like your asking a question in class) from anatomical position. When any joint is in the closed packed position, it cannont move any further; it has reached the end of it's range of motion. Another example of a joint in the "close packed" packed position is full extension of the knee (standing up). Again, the knee can't go any further; unless you are willing to undure considerable pain! :0

What is a open packed position?
The position of least joint congruity Position of joint separation Position of least joint stability The positions of travl of a joint away from the close packed position where by the capsule and ligaments are not taut, extreme movements in that direction usually results in sprain/strains
