Transcribed Image Text:The articular motion that the image is showing is ____ of the elbow.
The image depicts a human arm bent at the elbow, forming a right angle. The arrow indicates a curved motion toward the shoulder, suggesting the elbow's bending movement. This motion involves bringing the forearm closer to the upper arm, demonstrating the contraction typical in specific elbow movements.

Transcribed Image Text:**Movement Types**
- **Lateral Rotation**: A motion that involves rotating a limb or body part away from the midline of the body.
- **Flexion**: The action of bending a joint or limb in the body, such as bending an elbow or knee.
- **Extension**: The straightening of a limb or joint, increasing the angle between body parts, such as straightening a bent elbow or knee.
- **Hyperextension**: The extension of a limb or joint beyond its normal range of motion, which can potentially cause injury if excessive.
