A ball and socket joint is literally a ball an socket. It allows 360 degrees rotation. An example is your arm. There is a saying-"I pulled my arm out of my socket." This basically says you pulled the top of your humerous (your upper arm) out of the joint where the ball fits in the socket. This injury can be easily fixed by popping the ball back in the socket. I am a science major 11 year old. Thank you for your time. I hope this answers your question.
flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, hoizontal abduction/extention, internal rotation, external rotation, circumduction, adduction/flexion
The movements of the 1st carpometacarpal joint include flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, opposition, and reposition. These movements allow for the thumb to have a wide range of motion important for activities like grasping and pinching.
The glenohumeral joint is commonly known as the shoulder joint it is not a muscle. It acts functionally as a diarthrosis and multiaxial joint.It is the most moveable joint in the body.Flexion and extension of the shoulder joint in the (sagittal plane).Abduction and adduction of the shoulder (frontal plane).Horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction of the shoulder (transverse plane).Medial and lateral rotation of shoulder (also known as internal and external rotation).Circumduction of the shoulder (a combination of flexion/extension and abduction/adduction).
That is incorrect. The major movements at the knee joint are flexion and extension, as well as a small amount of internal and external rotation. Adduction and abduction are movements commonly associated with the hip joint.
The 12 main body movements are flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation, circumduction, supination, pronation, inversion, eversion, dorsiflexion, and plantarflexion. These movements describe the different ways our joints and muscles allow us to move our bodies.
Circumduction is the action that involves a combination of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction at the appendicular skeleton. This movement creates a circular motion at a joint where the limb moves in a cone-like manner.
flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, hoizontal abduction/extention, internal rotation, external rotation, circumduction, adduction/flexion
Movement>prime mover. Abduction>deltoid. Adduction>gravity. Flexion>pectoralis major(sternal part). Extension>teres major. Medial rotation>pectoralis major(sternal). Lateral rotation>infraspinatus.
The six primary movements that occur at the joints between body segments are flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation, and circumduction. Flexion is the bending movement that decreases the angle between body parts, while extension is the opposite movement that increases the angle. Abduction is the movement away from the midline of the body, while adduction is the movement toward the midline. Rotation involves the turning or twisting movement, and circumduction is a combination of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction that creates a circular movement.

Adduction, abduction, flex-ion, extension and circumduction.

The wrist joint allows for flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and circumduction movements. These movements enable the hand to perform a wide range of activities such as grasping, holding, and manipulating objects.
The shoulder joint, being one of the most mobile joints in the body, show quite a lot of versatility in it's movements. It shows flexion(150°-170°), extension (40°), abduction (160°-180°), adduction (30°-40°), lateral rotation (in abduction: 95°; in adduction: 70°) and medial rotation (in abduction: 40°-50°; in adduction: 70°). Flexion is when your muscles bulge, like when you show off your biceps. Extension is the opposite of flexion, when you unbend your elbow. Abduction is when you raise your arm away from your body and adduction is when you lower your arm. Lateral rotation is when you rotate your arm outwards and medial is when you rotate your arm inwards.
