Abduction
Thumb abduction and adduction is in the sagittal plane. However, finger abduction and adduction is in the frontal/coronal plane. Do these movements in the anatomical position and that will help you see that the thumb is not abducting or adducting in the frontal plane rather the sagittal plane.
To identify the correct movement and the plane in which it occurs, it's essential to understand the three primary planes of motion: the sagittal plane (divides the body into left and right), the frontal plane (divides the body into front and back), and the transverse plane (divides the body into upper and lower). For example, flexion and extension movements, such as bicep curls, occur in the sagittal plane. Lateral raises, which involve moving the arms away from the body, occur in the frontal plane. Lastly, rotational movements, like twisting the torso, occur in the transverse plane.
There is only one median plane, which divides the left and right sides of the body into two equal halves. The sagittal plane is any vertical plane that is parallel to the median plane, so it can divide the left and right sides but they will be unequalparts.
The brain is divided into unequal right and left portions by the sagittal plane. This plane passes from front to back, dividing the brain into two hemispheres - the left hemisphere and the right hemisphere.
Ankle dorsiflexion occurs in the sagittal plane. This movement involves flexion of the ankle joint, bringing the toes closer to the shin. It is an essential component of walking, running, and various lower body movements.
Frontal Plane about the anterioposterior axis
Though flexion and extension can occur in a variety of planes depending on the body's position, if you have a body in anatomical position, then all flexion and extension occurs on the sagittal plane.
Sagittal. Midsaggittal plane divides the body into equal halves
Thumb abduction and adduction is in the sagittal plane. However, finger abduction and adduction is in the frontal/coronal plane. Do these movements in the anatomical position and that will help you see that the thumb is not abducting or adducting in the frontal plane rather the sagittal plane.
does hyperextension occurs in the sagittal plane?
A sagittal plane is a plane that passes from posterior to anterior. It divides the body into left and right halves.
It is in the Sagittal plane.
It is any plane parallel to the sagittal plane.
sagittal plane
It is the imaginary line that goes from the center of your whole body (midsagittal). It goes vertically, through the center of your nose, between your eyes, throughout your whole body. All the other sagittal planes, on either side of the midsagittal, witch are parallel to the midsagittal are called parasagital.
