1.	In ‘flexion’ of the forearm, the humerus moves towards the radius and ulna. What movement will take the humerus away from the radius and ulna?(a) reflexion(b) deflection(c) extension(d) abductionI have been asked this question during an online exam.My question is taken from Orthopaedics topic in division Orthopaedics of Clinical Science
Answer» The CORRECT answer is (c) extension Best explanation: Flexion means the movement of bending while extension means the movement of straightening. When the BODY is flexed, it is bended, either TOWARDS (bones) or away (muscles) from the mid-line. When the body is extended, it gets STRAIGHTENED, i.e. it GOES back to its original shape.
