Hi everyone,
I’m studying basic human anatomy and I came across the term hinge pivot joint. I’d like to better understand what defines this type of joint and how it functions within the body.
Could someone explain what makes a joint a hinge or pivot joint, and how these joints differ from other types of joints? Examples from the human body and simple explanations would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance for your insights — looking forward to learning from the community!
