Clues

  • A degenerative joint disease caused by a loss of articular cartilage at the ends of long bones in a joint. It causes pain, swelling and reduced motion in your joints (14)
  • A flat surface running through the body within which different types of movement can take place about different types of synovial joint. There are three main planes that describe the movement of the human body (5, 2, 8)
  • A type of contraction that involves the muscle lengthening while producing tension (9, 11)
  • Is performed in the presence of oxygen at a sub-maximal intensity over a prolonged period of time, e.g. rowing (7, 8)
  • Moving the foot downwards, away from the tibia (7, 7)
  • Tension is produced in the muscle while there is a change in muscle length. It is a dynamic contraction because the joint will move (8, 11)
  • The lower (distal) end of the bone, moves in a circle; it is a combination of flexion, extension, abduction and adduction (13)
  • The muscle that has an action opposite to that of the agonist and helps in the production of a coordinated movement (10, 6)
  • The muscle that is directly responsible for the movement at a joint (7, 6)
  • This refers o the resistance offered by various musculo-skeletal tissues that surround a joint (5, 9)
