Question 1 • 2026-2027 EDGE Human Anatomy and Physiology A

What are the advantages of synovial joints? Select all that apply.

Answer
A
are rarely injured
B
allow for the greatest range of motion
C
are the most stable joint
D
provide the most flexibility

Explanation

Synovial joints have a joint cavity and movable articulating surfaces, so they allow a wide range of motion and provide flexibility. They are not rarely injured, and their mobility means they are generally less stable than less movable joints. Therefore, the advantages are “allow for the greatest range of motion” and “provide the most flexibility.”
