Ligaments provide stability to a joint during both rest and movement. Excessive movements such as hyper-extension or hyper-flexion can be restricted by ligaments. Also, ligaments prevent movements in some directions.

Is the relation a function?
Not every relation is a function. But every function is a relation. Function is just a part of relation.
When does a relation be a function?
A function is a relation whose mapping is a bijection.
A relation is a special type of function?
No. A relation is not a special type of function.
What is the difference between function and a relation?
Good question. A relation is simply that; any x-value to create any y-value. A function, however, cannot be defined for multiple values of x. In other words, for a relation to be a function, it must have singular values for all x within its domain.
How do you define function and relation?
A relation has pairs of numbers. A function is a special relation where for each input there is one and only one output.
Function of each ligament?
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) - helps prevent the tibia from shifting too far forward in relation to the femur. Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) - prevents the tibia from moving too far backwards in relation to the femur. Medial collateral ligament (MCL) - stabilizes the inner side of the knee, preventing excessive side-to-side movement. Lateral collateral ligament (LCL) - stabilizes the outer side of the knee, preventing excessive side-to-side movement.
What is the ligament called that protects the alignment of the femoral and tibial condyles?
The ligament that protects the alignment of the femoral and tibial condyles is known as the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). It helps to stabilize the knee joint and prevent excessive forward movement of the tibia in relation to the femur. Injury to the ACL can result in instability and reduced function of the knee joint.
Which ligament at the knee protects it from lateral rotation?
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) helps to prevent the knee from excessive lateral (sideways) rotation. It provides stability by limiting the tibia's forward movement in relation to the femur.
Is the relation a function?
Not every relation is a function. But every function is a relation. Function is just a part of relation.
What do the initials ACL stand for in relation to the body?
Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Can you have a function that is not a relation?
No, a function must be a relation although a relation need not be a functions.
What ligament is also known as the fibular collateral ligament?
The ligament known as the fibular collateral ligament is also referred to as the lateral collateral ligament (LCL). It is located on the outside of the knee joint and provides stability to the knee by preventing excessive sideways movement.
How do the different tissues of a chicken wing function together to produce movement?
The ligament and the cartilage combine together to make movement. One makes the movements and the other doesn't. And joints makes movements and also it called indolence.
What movement does the Ulnar collateral ligament prevent?
There are two cruciate ligaments. The posterior cruciate ligament is responsible for the knee being able to lock into position when fully extended. It prevents forces pushing the tibia posterior to the femur. The anterior cruciate ligament prevents movement in the opposite direction, i.e. gives a limit to how much we can flex our knee. It is most commonly injured.
Which of these data sets represents a function?
Does the graph above show a relation, a function, both a relation and a function, or neither a relation nor a function?
What initiates joint movement?
