gliding joint connecting surfaces are nearly flat or slightly curved, sliding or twisting exp.-wrist or ankle
hinge joint convex fits into concave, flexion and extension(back and forth) exp.-elbows
pivot joint cylindrical surface into ring of bone and ligament, rotation around a central axis exp.- proximal ends of the radius and ulna
saddle joint both concave and convex regions; one surface fits the surface of the other, variety of movements exp.-thumb
flexion bending parts at a joint so that the angle between them decreases and the parts come closer together( bending the at the knee)

plantar flexion bending the foot at the ankle toward the sole
hyperextension excess extension of the parts at a joint, beyond the anatomical position
abduction moving a part away from the midline (lifting the upper limb horizontally to form a right angle with the side of the body)
adduction moving a part toward the midline (returning the upper limb from the horizontal position to the side of the body)
rotation moving a part around an axis( turning the head from side to side)
circumduction moving a part so that its ends follow a circular path (moving the finger in a circular motion without moving the hand)
pronation turning the hand so that the palm is facing downward or posteriorly
supination turning the hand so that the palm is facing upward

protraction moving a part forward(thrusting the chin forward)
elevation raising a part ( shrugging)
