The trunk is composed of the _____.

thoracic spine, rib cage, and pelvic girdle

***Inversion occurs at the talocrural joint by turning the ankle and foot inward toward the midline of the body where the weight is on lateral edge of foot.

true

A sideward deviation of the spine is known as scoliosis.

true

Spinal flexion is defined as anterior movement of the spine where the head moves toward chest and the thorax moves toward pelvis.

true

The anterior tibialis and peroneus longus muscles are antagonist to each other in all of their respective actions.

true

The distal malleoli of the tibia and fibula serve as pulleys for the posterior tendons of the posterior tibialis and peroneus brevis to increase the mechanical advantage of these muscles in performing inversion and eversion actions, respectively.

true

The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint that consists of the head of the femur connecting with the acetabulum of the pelvic girdle which has its stability enhanced by a labrum.

true

The knee joint can extend to 180 degrees normally although some individuals can extend slightly further.

true

true

The pelvic girdle consists of a right and left pelvic bone joined together posteriorly by the sacrum.

true

The quadriceps muscles perform eccentric contractions before concentric contractions in explosive jumping.

true

The rectus abdominis muscle can control the tilt of the pelvis when contracting.

true

The soleus muscle can perform muscular actions only in the sagittal plane about a frontal axis.

true

The tibia bears the majority of the weight as compared to the fibula.

true

Vertebrae increase in size from the cervical to the lumbar region due to there being more weight supported by the spine as you move from superior to inferior.
