Chapter 5, Problem 1AP
Summary Introduction
To construct: A table that identifies joint type and the plane or planes of movement for the atlanto-occipital joint, the L5-S1 vertebral joint, the metacarpophalangeal joints, the interphalangeal joints, the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb, the radioulnar joint, and the talocrural joint.
Concept introduction: The attachment site of two or more bones is known as a joint or an articulation. The function of the joints is to provide stability and mobility to the skeleton. The joints are classified on the based on the type of tissue involved- fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial joints. The movements of the body are explained in terms of planes they pass through including frontal, transverse, and sagittal planes.

Choose the joint that is less likelyto become injured. Joint A - diarthosis joint; two long bones join to form it; capable of flexion and extension only; non-weight bearing.

Here are the diarthrotic joints involved: HEAD/NECK, SHOULDERS, ELBOW, WRIST, FINGERS, HIP, KNEE, ANKLE, TOES, JAW. For each of the joints, please provide the following: 1. what is the action or actions occurring at the joint? (flexion/extension, adduction/abduction, dorsiflexion/plantarflexion etc), 2. what type of joint is it? (planar, pivot, saddle, condylar, hinge, ball and socket etc) 3. Is the action uniaxial, biaxial, or multiaxial? You may be starting on this assignment with a partner in class, but then you will submit your assignment to CANVAS individually. Don't forget ANY joints! Remember that many joints have more than one action. Also, you need to do left and right separately, when it makes sense to do so.arrow_forward
