It was first determined by Professor M MacConnail of Queens University, Dublin. As well as maximum congruency of joint surfaces the major ligaments are taut. Two bones become functionally one.

∙ 6y agoWhile a close-packed position is the most efficient for handling a great amount of static force, it is more dangerous for dynamic forces. To understand this, think of jumping from a height and landing on your fully extended knees. The knees are in a close packed position, which does not allow them to help absorb the sudden high force applied to the body, resulting in more potential for injury, both to the joint and the rest of the body, such as the spine, which must absorb the force, as well. On the other hand, this position would be the best to support a heavy load on the shoulders.

Are chromosomes tightly packed DNA or loosely packed DNA?
Chromosomes are tightly packed DNA. When DNA is not tightly packed it is called chromatin. Chromosomes only exist during mitosis or meiosis.

What is a open packed position?
The position of least joint congruity Position of joint separation Position of least joint stability The positions of travl of a joint away from the close packed position where by the capsule and ligaments are not taut, extreme movements in that direction usually results in sprain/strains
Why do not todo joint mobilization close-packed position?
this is due to there being no availiable assercy motion at the joint from this postion.
What is the close packed position of all the joints?
Left or right arm abducted (away from the body) 180 degrees superiorly (arm raised like your asking a question in class) from anatomical position. When any joint is in the closed packed position, it cannont move any further; it has reached the end of it's range of motion. Another example of a joint in the "close packed" packed position is full extension of the knee (standing up). Again, the knee can't go any further; unless you are willing to undure considerable pain! :0
