What joints are biaxial hinge joints?
Biaxial joints allow for movement in two planes or axes. A common example of a biaxial joint is the wrist, which allow for movement side to side, and also allows for movement up and down. It can be difficult to determine whether a joint is biaxial or multiaxial, because when the biaxial joint moves in both directions at the same time, it appears to have the multiaxial quality of being able to move in any plane or axes.
Which joint moves only by a uniaxial movement around its own axis?
the pivot and hinge joints. they can only move back and forth in one direction, as apposed the the biaxial joint, condyloid, and saddle which can move back and forth in 2 different directions and the multiaxial joint Ball and socket joint which can move in many directions.
What are the types of joints found in thumb?
The types of joints found in thumb are: 1. Caropometacarpal joint where the metacarpal bone of the thumb attaches to the trapezium bone of the wrist. This joint is a saddle joint that allows two planes of motion with a small amount or rotation. 2. Metacarpophalangeal joint is the joint between the metacarpal bone and the phalanges of the thumb. This joint is an ellipsoid joint that allows movement in two planes and is biaxial. 3. Interphalangeal joint is the joint between the two phalanges of the thumb. This joint is a hinge joint that allows movement in one plane and is also referred to as uniaxial.
