Ch 14 Kinesiology Test

Joint between bones (as at the elbow or knee) that permits motion in only one plane

• hinge joint

• saddle joint

• synovial joint

• pivot joint

the extreme or over extension of a limb or body part beyond its normal limit

• retraction

• hyperextension

• opposition

• pronation

The place where two bones come into contact.

• plantar flexion

• supination

• protraction

• joint articulation

The multidisciplinary study of physical activity or movement; encompasses anatomy, bio mechanics, physiology, psycho motor behavior, and social and cultural factors.

• kinesiology

• primary fibrositis

• retraction

• saggital plane

a sequence of action in which the body part farthest from the trunk is free during movement

• sutures

• Open kinematic chain

• saddle joint

• synarthroses

sometimes referred to as degenerative joint disease, occurs with advancing age.

• Osteoarthritis

• rheumatic fever

• synovial membrane

• hyperextension

A bacterial infection that can be carried in the blood to the joints

• primary fibrositis

• open kinematic chain

• osteoarthritis

• rheumatic fever

A connective tissue disorder resulting in severe inflammation of small joints

• rheumatoid arthritis

• rheumatic fever

• joint articulation

• inversion

A freely movable joint between two bones with complementary shapes; allows a wide range of motion

• pivot joint

• synovial joint

• saddle joint

is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts
