False

The cuboid bone is located medially with respect to the navicular bone.

False (cuboid bone is located laterally with respect to the navicular bone)

The acetabulum inserts into the femoral head to form the acetabular femoral joint.

False (femoral head inserts into the acetabulum to form the acetabular femoral joint)

An ankle sprain is a common injury that involves the stretching or tearing of one or more tendons.

True

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

True

True

Functions of the acetabular femoral joint include weight bearing and locomotion.

True
