What type of joint allows twistingturning sliding as in the vertebrae?
A ball and socket joint allows twisting and turning side to side. It humans this would be the hip joint
Does The hinge joint provide the widest range of motion for the body?
No, the hinge joint only allows movement in a side to side or up/down motion - examples being knees and elbows for the human body. Ball Jointsd however permit movement in a 360 degree range (depending on how supple the muscles are - for example hip jointsd which allow the leg to move forward and back and side to side. Shoulders likewise. So, in a globule, a succont answer would be "No" :)
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.
How does your femur help you move?
The femur is almost verticle and strong bone. It can bear the lot of weight. It is slightly convex anteriorly. That gives you added advantage in weight bearing. Convexity on anterior side, enable you to to tolerate the trauma from the front side in better way. There is an angle between the head neck portion and shaft of the femur. That shift the location of the femur away from the hip bone. This arrangement shifts the line of weight transmission towards side way. Then you have the ball and socket type of joint at the hip joint. That allows all types of movement across the joint. You have the knee joint to give you hinge joint. This allows for bending the knee more or less. Together with these features the femur is architectural marvel.
What is the function of the atlas joint?
Atlantoaxial - synovial; pivotThe joint between the atlas and axis is called the atlanto-axial joint. It is comprised of the anterior portion of the ring of C1 and the odontoid process (or dens) of C2. This joint allows for about 50 percent of the side to side rotation of the head.*a.k.a. Pivot Synovial JointThe joint that is located between the atlas and the axis vertebrae is the pivot joint. This is due to the fact that the axis (2nd vertebra) protrudes through the vertebral foramen and this allows you to turn your head side to side. Try and shake your head "no," this is due to the pivot joint of the two vertebrae! this joint also known as atoaxoid jointpivotit is called the atlanto-axial jointThe joint between atlas and axis is called the atloaxoid joint. This joint is a pivot joint that allows the head to turn from side to side.
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.
What joint allows up and down movement as well as side to side?
a brothel, hunny
Which type of joint allows side to side movement and up-and-down movement?
pivotal
What is the movement of a pivotal hinge joint?
A pivot joint allows movement around the joint. The movement is a pivot or turning. A pivot joint is found between the first and second vertebral joint. This allows you to turn your head.A pivot joint can make a rapid turning motion. When you look from one side to the other side you are making a pivotal movement. A dancer turns rapidly on 1 foot is making a pivotal movement. If you make it quick turn to go back the way you were coming that is a pivotal movement.
What is axis on atlas movement in neck?
The joint here is a synovial pivot joint allowing for rotation in the transverse plane. THis means its the joint that allows you to turn your head form side to side.

What is the name of the of the joint found in your neck?
It's called the pivot joint. It allows your head to move from side to side.
Which of the following examples illustrates a pivot joint in use?
A pivot joint in use can be illustrated by the movement of the neck. The neck contains several vertebrae that are connected by pivot joints, which allow the neck to rotate and move in different directions. For example, when you turn your head to the left or right, the pivot joints in your neck allow your head to rotate on your shoulders. This is an example of a pivot joint in use.
What are the five types of joints found in the human body?
*pivot joint-As the name suggests, this kind of joint permits pivotal movement of the parts of body this joined. Movement of the skull is an example. A man can turn his head from one side to the other by rotating the skull, which is joined to the backbone at its top in such a way that a pivotal movements is possible *hinge joint-This allows the movement of the part of body in one direction up or down but not sideways. Example of this joint is: knee-joint, elbow-joint, and movement of the lower jaw. *ball and socket joint-When a part is capable of making an all round movement up and down and sideways- this is possible by a joint of this kind. The leg can be moved in any direction, sideways, up and down *swivel joint- turn like a wheel on an axle. it is found between the vertebrae and the spine.
