This is in contrast to biaxial or multiaxial movement, which involve motion in multiple planes or around multiple axes.

They are hinge joints. The elbow has only one plane of motion (flexion & extension); however, the knee is considered a "modified hinge" because it has the flexion & extension as well as a rotational (pivot) component as well.
