Radioulnar Joint Proximal articulation of the radius and ulna Pivot Joint Radius pivots on Ulna Allows for pronation and supinationTRANSCRIPT
ELBOWMs. Bowman
RADIOULNAR JOINT
Proximal articulation of the radius and ulna
Pivot Joint Radius pivots on
Ulna Allows for

Allows flexion and Extension
ELBOW
Bony protrusions on the humerus are called medial and lateral condyles
