Joints

=**Joints**=


 * Joints are what allow us to move our hips, bend our knees, and push open a door with palm of our hands. The joint that allows you to twist your neck is a pivot joint. One bone rotates around the other. Another joint is the Ball and socket joint. It allows your arms and hips to move freely in a circle. The joint that allows your lower leg to bend back and forth is called a hinge joint. It's like a door hinge, opening and closing. The last joint is the gliding joint. It's in your wrist and ankle and allows them to bend and flex. **
