Number of movable planes in an uniaxial joint?

The three planes are coronal, sagittal, and transverse (you probably knew this already) so a multiaxial joint can move in all three. So to answer the question, it would be three.

Difference between uniaxial and biaxial crystals?

Uniaxial crystals have one optic axis, where the refractive index is the same in all directions perpendicular to it. Biaxial crystals have two optic axes, with different refractive indices along each direction. This causes different light paths and behaviors in biaxial crystals compared to uniaxial ones.


Is ankle uniaxial or biaxial?

The ankle joint is primarily considered a uniaxial joint, as it mainly allows movement in one plane—dorsiflexion and plantarflexion. However, it does have some limited biaxial characteristics due to the subtalar and other surrounding joints, which permit slight inversion and eversion. Overall, the ankle's primary function is in one axis of movement.


Which is not a part of all synovial joints?

All synovial joints do not have a meniscus. While many synovial joints, such as the knee, contain menisci (cartilaginous structures that provide cushioning and stability), not all synovial joints have them. Other common features of synovial joints include articular cartilage, a synovial membrane, and a joint capsule.


What is refractive indices of uniaxial crystals?

Uniaxial crystals have two different refractive indices: ordinary index (no) and extraordinary index (ne). The ordinary index is the same in all directions, while the extraordinary index varies depending on the direction relative to the optic axis of the crystal. This anisotropic behavior is a characteristic feature of uniaxial crystals.

Are bony joints the most common types of joints?

No, the most common type of joints in the human body are synovial joints, which are characterized by the presence of a synovial cavity. Bony joints, also known as synostoses, result from the fusion of bones and are less common in comparison.
