Question

Susan’s wrist is tired from typing on her keyboard all day. She moves her wrist in a circle to stretch it out. What type of movement does her hand make around her wrist?

Answer 1

The movement being performed is rotation. The wrist performs the flexion motion when it is bent forwards, with the palm facing downwards. The motion of extension is carried out when the wrist bends backwards with the palm facing upwards. The motion of rotation is when the join rotates about its axis.
