Question 22

Flexion and extension

Answer 22

• occurs in sagittal plane and around transverse axis
• Flexion is the decreasing of the angle between body parts or movement in the anterior direction
• Extension is the increasing of the angle between body parts with a straightening of limbs or movement in the posterior direction

Dorsiflexion and plantarflexion

Answer 24

• Movement of raising the toes at ankle joint

- movement of bending feet towards the ground

Question 25

Abduction and adduction

Answer 25

- occurs along the coronal plane - movement away from the midline in the coronal plane - movement toward the midline in the coronal plane

Question 26

Abduction and adduction in digits and thump

Answer 26

- spreading apart ( abd) and closing the gap ( addu) | - thumps at 90 degrees rotation so abduction away from the fingers and adduction towards the other fingers

Question 27

Circumduction

Answer 27

Sequential flexion abduction extension and abduction in such a way that the distal end of the path moves in a circle

Question 28
