Range of Motion Quiz

What does range of motion refer to?

• The extent of movement that a joint or a body part can achieve

• The strength of muscles surrounding a joint

• The flexibility of ligaments in a joint

• The size of a joint in the body

Which type of range of motion involves an external force applied to achieve movement?

• Flexion Range of Motion

• Passive Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Active Range of Motion

When an individual voluntarily performs movement using their own muscles, it is known as:

• Passive Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Active Range of Motion

• Abduction Range of Motion

Which type of range of motion involves the individual actively contributing to the movement, but assistance is needed to overcome limitations in muscle strength or joint mobility?

• Adduction Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Passive Range of Motion

• Active Range of Motion

What is the movement called when a joint or body part moves away from the midline of the body?

• Extension

• Abduction

• Flexion

• Adduction

Which type of range of motion involves the individual contracting and controlling the muscles surrounding a joint to produce movement?

• Passive Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Active Range of Motion

• Rotation Range of Motion

When an external force is applied to achieve movement without the person voluntarily contracting the muscles surrounding that joint, it is known as:

• Passive Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Horizontal Abduction Range of Motion

• Active Range of Motion

What is the movement called when a joint or body part moves towards the midline of the body?

• Extension

• Adduction

• Abduction

• Flexion

Which type of range of motion involves the individual actively contributing to the movement, but assistance is needed to overcome limitations in muscle strength or joint mobility?

• Active Range of Motion

• Assistive Range of Motion

• Passive Range of Motion

• Adduction Range of Motion

What is the movement called when a joint or body part straightens and increases the angle between the bones or body parts?

• Flexion
