Question

Give some advantages and disadvantages of pivot joint.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Some disadvantages of a pivot joint are the lack of range of motion as it does not allow for full movement of the limb as movement are allowed in one plane around a vertical axis.. Pivot joints also can contribute to the ease of cricking the muscles out of place.

The moving bone rotates within a ring that is formed from a second bone and adjoining ligament. ... Pivot joints also provide for the twisting movement of the bones of the forearm (radius and ulna) against the upper arm, a movement used, for instance, in unscrewing the lid of a jar.
