What is the joint between the trapezium and the metacarpal?
The joint between the trapezium bone and the first metacarpal bone is called the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint. This joint provides mobility and stability to the thumb, allowing for important movements such as opposition and grasping. It is a saddle joint with complex movements that facilitate the thumb's wide range of motion.
What Muscles can contract while extending a joint or flexing a joint what is the name for these types of movements?
Muscles that contract while extending a joint are called extensor muscles, while those that contract during flexing a joint are known as flexor muscles. These movements are collectively referred to as antagonistic movements, where one muscle group (the flexors) acts to bend the joint, while the opposing group (the extensors) acts to straighten it. This coordinated action allows for smooth and controlled movements.
What is the main function of the groin?
The main function of the groin is to allow for a wide range of motion in the hip joint and facilitate movements such as walking, running, and kicking. It also helps stabilize the pelvis and support the abdominal organs.
What is joint arthrokinematics?
the general term for the specific movements of joint surfaces. Normal joint surface movement is necessary to ensure long-term joint integrity. (Joint surface movements are sometimes called joint play motions or component motions). Joint surfaces move with respect to one another by simultaneously (1) rolling, (2) gliding, and (3) spinning.
