What are movements along the sagittal plane that decrease the angle between two bones?

Flexion is the general term for movements that decrease the angle between two bones; however, in the sagittal plane, the special term "adduction" is used for movements that decrease the angle between the limb and the midline.

What is a sagittal crest?
A sagittal crest is a ridge of bone running lengthwise along the midline of the top of the skull in many mammals and primates.
An example of flexion is the?
Simply stated, flexion is when the angle around a joint is decreased from it's normal position (from the anatomical position) in the SAGITTAL plane. The sagittal plane is an imaginary line that splits your body into left and right pieces. All flexion moves in this plane. Ex. Flexion of the bicep requires you to pull your forearm (decrease the angle) toward your head. That motion running along the side of your body is also in the sagittal plane
Is it true that the parietal bones meet the frontal bone along the sagittal suture?
No, the parietal and frontal bones are joined by the coronal suture. The saggital suture joins the parietal bones to each other.
The parietal bones are firmly interlocked along the midline by the?
The parietals are joined at the "sagittal suture", unless you happen to be an ape, in which case, it is the sagittal ridge.
What is Dura Mater?
Dura matter is tough outer coat on the brain. Inside it you have arachinoid matter. Innermost is pia matter. Outer coat of dura matter goes along with the inner layer of skull. Inner layer goes with the folds of brain. So you have falx cerebri. Above of which you have superior sagittal sinus and below is inferior sagittal sinus. Superior sagittal sinus is between outer and inner dura matter and inferior sagittal sinus is fold of inner layer of dura matter only. Then you have tentorium cerebelli and falx cerebeli. So you have cavernous sinus, superior and inferior petrosal sinus. Transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus Draing into internal jugular vein, through jugular foramen. ( Along with 9,10 and 11th cranial nerve.) Then straight sinus at the inferior border of falx cebri, posteriorly. And sinus coming from cerebellum below. This tough fold protects the delicate brain by forming compartments in it. It also helps in flow of venous blood, by forming venous sinuses.

What is the difference between movements along IS and LM curves?
interest rate shifts, and action of fed
What pair of directional terms would always describe movement along the sagittal plane?
superior and inferior
Is it true that the parietal bones meet the frontal bone along the sagittal suture?
No, the parietal and frontal bones are joined by the coronal suture. The saggital suture joins the parietal bones to each other.
When you cut a cadaver into equal left and right halves the cut is along what plane?
Mid Sagittal or median plane.
If one dimension decrease will the others increase or decrease?
the others will follow along with the first therefore the others will decrease
What monitors both vertical and horizontal movements along fault?
GPS and interferometric synthetic aperture radar monitor both vertical and horizontal movements along the fault.
What instrument measures the horizontal movements along faults?
tiltmeter
What is the measure of the voltage decrease along a wire?
Decrease or reduction of voltage along the wire is called voltage drop. It is measure through wire and load resistance difference.
Why are mime artists movements exaggerated?
Their movements are simple and exaggerated because it allows the audience to follow along and understand what is happening
Explain movements along the aggregate demand curve and shifts of the aggregate demand curve?
Movements along the aggregate demand curve are caused by changes in price level - real wealth effect, interest rate effect and open economy effect. If some non-price level determinant causes total spending to increase/decrease then the curve will shift to the right/left - consumption, investment, government expenditure, net exports.
