  8. 8What best describes a planar joint?
    1. ANon-axial joints which have two plates which slide against one another. They allow limited movement.
    2. BA joint where a convex part of bone fits into the concave part of bone. Opening and closing movements are possible.
    3. CA "peg" of bone fits into another bone or ligament to allow rotational movement.
    4. DOne of the articular surfaces has a convex oval shape and the other a concave depression. It provides a wide range of movement.
    5. EOne bone rides in another bone, as though the second bone were a saddle. Provides a wide range of movement.
    6. FLiterally, one ball of bone fits into another part of bone that acts a socket. These are the most versatile of joints in terms of movement.
  9. 9What best describes a hinge joint?
    1. ANon-axial joints which have two plates which slide against one another. They allow limited movement.
