What contributes the limitation of movement in the joints?
limited by the position of the clavicle joint at the sternoclavicular joint
What combination of movement is required at the shoulder and elbow joints for a person to move his right upper limb from the anatomical position to touch the right side of his head with his fingertips?
First flexion at the elbow, rotation at the shoulder and then abduction of the upper arm. The joint at the wrist doesn't change position.
Is shoulder joint a complex Or compound joint?
shoulder joint is a compound joint bcoz it si made of 3/ more bones and fuction as a single anatomical unit.
The medial rotation is the movement of which joint?
The medial roataion is the movement of Glenohumeral joint .
What joint provides omnidirectional movement?
A saddle joint provides the closest to omnidirectional movement.
is the hip joint lateral to the tibia?
In anatomical position, the hip joint is lateral to the tibia. In females, this laterality is more pronounced.
Can the position of the elbow joint affect the range of motion of the wrist?
the anatomical relationship of the elbow to wrist is.The elbow is proximal to the wrist.
What is hyperextensibility?
Hyperextension - Is a straightening movement that goes beyond the normal, healthy boundaries of ones joint.
What contributes the limitation of movement in the joints?
limited by the position of the clavicle joint at the sternoclavicular joint
What combination of movement is required at the shoulder and elbow joints for a person to move his right upper limb from the anatomical position to touch the right side of his head with his fingertips?
First flexion at the elbow, rotation at the shoulder and then abduction of the upper arm. The joint at the wrist doesn't change position.
What is the meaning of joint motions?
A way to regulate the joint's movement so that all reach the specified position at the same time.
Performs the same movement as primary?
The synergist muscle performs the same movement as the primary mover. This often depends of the position of the joint.
What injury could occur if a joint is forced beyond its normal range of movement?
Is the dislocation of the bone may occur!
Is shoulder joint a complex Or compound joint?
shoulder joint is a compound joint bcoz it si made of 3/ more bones and fuction as a single anatomical unit.
What movement can the shoulder joint not do despite being a multi-axial joint that allows a variety of movements?
Flexion, extension/hyperextension, trabsverse horizontal abduction, circumduction.If you think about the movements that you can do at your shoulder, you can figure this question out yourself. When in the anatomical position, we can perform flexion and extension,the forward and backward (respectively) movements of our arm at the shoulder joint. There is also abduction and adduction, which is the movement of rising our arm out to our sides, away from our body (abduction) and towards our body (adduction). Finally, there is also medial rotation and lateral rotation of the shoulder joint, in which we rotate the head of humerus in the shoulder-joint cavity (glenoid cavity). You may hear the combined movements of flexion, extension, abduction and adduction referred to as circumduction.
This type of joint allows side to side movement and up and down movement?
There are six joints that have movement. The plvotal joint is what allows up and down movement.
The medial rotation is the movement of which joint?
The medial roataion is the movement of Glenohumeral joint .
