skeletal system

• abduction


  Movement of limbs away from the midline of the body

  
• adduction


  Movement of limbs toward the midline of the body

  
• horizontal abduction


  moving limbs toward back of body horizontally

  
• horizontal adduction


  moving limbs to front of body horizontally

  
• flexion and extension and hyperextension

  flexion - decreasing angle at a joint

  extension - increasing angle at a joint

  hyperextension - increasing angle beyond 180*

  
• what movements occur in frontal plane with sagittal axis

  abduction and adduction

  frontal plane = divides into front and back

  sagittal axis = front to back

  
• what movements occur in transverse plane and longitudinal axis


  horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction

  transverse plane = divides upper and lower

  longitudinal axis = top to bottom

  
• movements is sagitall plane and transverse axis


  flexion, extension, hyperextension, plantar flexion and dorsi

  sagittal plane = divides body into left and right

  transverse axis = side to side

  
• plantar and dorsi flexion

  plantar = pointing toes

  dorsi = pulling toes up towards sky

  
• joint types and their articulating bones

  shoulder = ball&socket = humerus, scapula

  hip = ball&socket = femur pelvis

  elbow = hinge = humerus, radius , ulna

  knee = hinge = femur, tibia

  ankle = hinge = tibia, fibula , talus
