There are two sets of tabs on the ailerons, control tabs (inboard tabs) and trim tabs (outboard tabs). The ailerons are bussed to each other, the yokes are connected to their respective control tabs. So during a walk around you move an aileron only the opposite aileron moves. If you would move a control tab then the yokes would move. With hydraulics on the spoilers on the down wing will also move once approximately 5 degrees bank input into the yokes.
The elevator has control tabs (inboard) and geared tabs (outboard). The geared tabs use aerodynamics to assist in movement of the elevator. The elevator does not trim, the entire stabilizer trims. The elevators are not connected together, each yoke goes to their respective control tab. The yokes are connected via a torque tube.
The rudder has a control tab that under normal ops is locked in position, in normal ops the entire rudder moves with pilot input. With a loss of hydraulic power to the rudder the control tab unlocks and the rudder is then moved via the control tab.
