A hinge joint. Using your knee as an example of what this means: Standing up you can bend the knee so that your leg is bent behind you, but you cannt twist it or move it in any other way. This is what it is meant by only one plane of movement. Other joints such as your shoulder allow you to move your arm in many different ways meaning it has several planes of movement.

What is the type of joint at the knee and elbow?
The knee and elbow both are uniaxial joints. This type is a synovial joint that permits movement around only one axis and in only one plane. The articulating ends of the bones form a hinge-shaped unity that allows only flexion and extension.
What type of joint is the acromioclavicular joint?
The acromioclavicular joint is a plane, or gliding, joint.
What type of joint is capable of movement in every plane?
Ball and socket joints, such as the hips and shoulder joints, can move in all directions.
When the angle of a joint increases it produces movement Which type of movement is it?
To increase the angle of a joint is extension. To decrease the angle of a joint is flexion. (plato users the answer is A.)
What is an example of a Ellipsoidal joint?
An ellipsoid joint can be found in the wrist and is the same type of movement as a ball in socket joint, but allows slightly less movement than the ball in socket It permits movement in two planes without rotation if that is what you mean by allows slightly less movement than the ball in socket joint. The wrist between the radius and the proximal row of carpal bones.
What joint does the elbow form?
The elbow is an uniaxial joint. This type is a synovial joint that permits movement around only one axis and in only one plane. The articulating ends of the bones form a hinge-shaped unity that allows only flexion and extension.

What is The joint that permits only flexion and extension?
Which type of diathrotic joint permits flexion and extension only?
What type of joint is the acromioclavicular joint?
The acromioclavicular joint is a plane, or gliding, joint.
What type of joint is Sternocostal?
a plane joint
What type of joint is capable of movement in every plane?
Ball and socket joints, such as the hips and shoulder joints, can move in all directions.
What joint is in the middle of your arm?
it's called an elbow.The joint in the middle of the arm is the elbow.elbowThe joint that is used when bending the elbow is aSynovial Joint.A considerable amount of movement is permitted a all synovial joints and types are subdivided according to the movements.The elbow would be specifically considered a Hinge Joint: This type permits movement in one plane only. The movements are flexion and extension. Other examples of hinge joints are knee, ankle interphalangeal joints of the fingers and toes.* so its a synovial joint...but a Hinge joint type...other types are ball and socket eg: hip etc.Hope it helps :)
What type of joint are all freely movable or diarthrotic?
or Diarthrosis : articulation taht permits free movement or a freely movable joint also called synovial joint.
When the angle of a joint increases it produces movement Which type of movement is it?
To increase the angle of a joint is extension. To decrease the angle of a joint is flexion. (plato users the answer is A.)
