true
the movable end of a joint
insertion
the fixed end of a joint
origin
more space between bones at the joint
extension
less space between bones at the joint
moving a body part away from the midline
abduction
moving a body part toward the midline
adduction
flexion and extension always occur at this type joint
hinge
bending the head, neck, or trunk to the side
lateral flexion
straightening beyond normal anatomical position
hyperextension
ankle movement that brings the foot closer to the shin
dorsiflexion
ankle movement that moves the foot farther from the shin (point the toes)
plantar flexion
movement of a part so its end follows a circular path
circumduction
circumduction is only possible at what type joint?
ball-and-socket
In anatomical position, your palms face forward. This is known as
supination
palms turned backwards is known as
pronation
movement of a part around an axis
rotation
true/false: rotation is possible at the elbow
false (flex/extend only)
turning the sole (plantar) of the foot medially
inversion
turning the sole (plantar) laterally
eversion
moving a body part forward
protraction
moving a body part backward
retraction
