knee definition and meaning

What is "knee"?

The knee is a joint connecting the thigh bone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia). It is a hinge joint that allows for the bending and straightening of the leg. The knee is supported by ligaments, tendons, and muscles that provide stability and enable various movements such as walking, running, and jumping. It acts as a shock absorber and plays a crucial role in weight-bearing activities. The knee joint is essential for overall lower limb function and mobility, and understanding its anatomy and function is important for maintaining proper knee health and preventing injuries.

the part of any garment that covers the knee

knee definition and meaning

What is a "knee"?

A knee is an area of a garment that covers or sits just above the knee joint. For example, the knee of a pair of pants or shorts is part of the garment that covers the front of the knee, while the knee of a skirt is the area where the hem falls just above or on the knee joint. The knee can be an important consideration in garment design, as the fit and length of the garment in this area can affect both comfort and style. In some garments, such as knee pads or knee-high socks, the knee may play an even more significant role, providing protection or support to the joint.
