It dependson what type if objects you are asking about, here are a few examples.

In human atomy the knees and elbow are the main joints that move in one plane.

In geometry any two dimensional shape object only move in one plane, per say i.e a line, circle, square, triangle, etc... Technically an open line moves in one plane and a line with points do not move.

For more detail please give more precise detail in your question.
