The lower limb is designed for locomotion and is most adept for which of the following? A. superb dexterity B. manipulation C. mobility D. stability
The lower limb is designed for locomotion and is most adept for which of the following? C. mobility D. stability
The lower limb sacrifices mobility to gain the stability necessary to bear the body’s weight. Back to Board
In order for a person to lift their leg to get into a car, what action of the hip must be achieved? A. flexion B. extension C. rotation D. circumduction
In order for a person to lift their leg to get into a car, what action of the hip must be achieved? A. flexion C. rotation
Remember to flex your hip when you get into a car. Back to Board
As a person lifts his/her right foot to walk, the hip abductors on which side of the body stabilize the hip? A. right B. left C. left & right D. not listed
As a person lifts his/her right foot to walk, the hip abductors on which side of the body stabilize the hip? A. right B. left
When the right foot is raised, left hip abductors contract to prevent the pelvis from tipping down to the unsupported side. Back to Board
If a person laterally rotates their left hip, in what direction (relative to the body’s midline) will the left big toe move? A. away from midline B. toward midline C. no change from midline D. along midline
If a person laterally rotates their left hip, in what direction (relative to the body’s midline) will the left big toe move? A. away from midline B. toward midline
Lateral rotation of the hip moves the big toe away from midline. Back to Board
All of the muscles that move thigh are responsible for what action? A. abduction B. adduction C. circumduction D. flexion
All of the muscles that move thigh are responsible for what action? B. adduction C. circumduction
All muscles that move thigh are used during circumduction. Back to Board
Where does leg flexion and extension occur? A. hip B. knee C. ankle D. waist
Where does leg flexion and extension occur? A. hip B. knee
The leg extends from knee to ankle, so flexion and extension of the leg occurs at the knee. Back to Board
For a child that has “bowed-legs”, which ligaments on both knees are under the most physical stress? A. anterior cruciate B. posterior cruciate C. medial collateral D. lateral collateral
For a child that has “bowed-legs”, which ligaments on both knees are under the most physical stress? A. anterior cruciate D. lateral collateral
In genu valgus or bow-legs, the lateral collateral ligaments are most stretched. Back to Board
When one presses the gas pedal in a car, what movement of the foot is taking place? A. dorsiflexion B. plantarflexion C. pronation D. supination
When one presses the gas pedal in a car, what movement of the foot is taking place? A. dorsiflexion B. plantarflexion
Plantarflexion points the toe, while dorsiflexion brings the top of the foot, or dorsum, up toward the anterior surface of the leg. Back to Board
The sole of the foot moves toward the midline during what action of the ankle and foot? A. inversion B. eversion C. circumduction D. rotation
The sole of the foot moves toward the midline during what action of the ankle and foot? A. inversion B. eversion
Inversion brings the sole of the foot in to face medially; eversion moves the sole to face out laterally. Back to Board
Which of the following joints is NOT involved in the flexion and extension of the toes? A. metatarsophalangeal B. proximal interphalangeal C. distal interphalangeal D. tarsometatarsal
Which of the following joints is NOT involved in the flexion and extension of the toes? A. metatarsophalangeal D. tarsometatarsal
The tarsometatarsal joints provide very limited movement, and is not involved in toe flexion. Back to Board
When a runner wants to get a good jumpstart in a race, he or she depends on what action of the hallux to help him/her push off? A. flexion B. extension C. inversion D. eversion
When a runner wants to get a good jumpstart in a race, he or she depends on what action of the hallux to help him/her push off? A. flexion C. inversion
In pushing off, the big toe or hallux is flexed. Back to Board
Which toe serves as the point of reference when discussing the abduction and adduction of the toes? A. 1 st toe (hallux) B. 2 nd toe C. 3 rd toe D. 4 th toe
Which toe serves as the point of reference when discussing the abduction and adduction of the toes? B. 2 nd toe C. 3 rd toe
In the foot, ab- and adduction occur in reference to the 2 nd toe. Back to Board
Sorry, that is incorrect!
