Question

The following are the accessory movements in the joints:
A. Upward rotation of Tibia during knee extension
B. Upward rotation of scapula with shoulder movement
C. Rotation of humerus during abduction
D. Rotation of the fibula with ankle motion
E. Rotation of the clavicle with shoulder overhead movement
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A and C Only
• B. B, D and E Only
• C. D and E Only
• D. A, C and D Only

Hint:

Accessory movements = involuntary joint adjustments accompanying main movement

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept:
Accessory movements are involuntary joint movements that accompany active (physiological) movements but cannot be performed independently. These include gliding, rolling, spinning, and subtle joint adjustments.

Step 1: Evaluate option A.

• Rotation of tibia during knee extension is a physiological movement (screw-home mechanism) Thus: \[ A: Incorrect \]

Step 2: Evaluate option B.

• Scapular upward rotation occurs as an accessory component during shoulder elevation Thus: \[ B: Correct \]

Step 3: Evaluate option C.

• Humeral rotation during abduction is a voluntary physiological movement Thus: \[ C: Incorrect \]

Step 4: Evaluate option D.

• Fibular movement occurs subtly during ankle motion as accessory adjustment Thus: \[ D: Correct \]

Step 5: Evaluate option E.

• Clavicular rotation accompanies shoulder elevation (accessory joint motion) Thus: \[ E: Correct \]

Step 6: Final conclusion.
\[ \boxed{\text{Correct answer = Option (2)}} \]
