The knee joint is ________ to the ankle joint.
A) proximal
B) lateral
C) distal
D) inferior
A) proximal
Correct. The knee is closer to the beginning of the leg than the ankle. The knee is
not lateral to the ankle joint because it is not to the side, it is not distal because it is not further
away than the ankle joint from the point of attachment to the body, and it is not inferior to the
ankle joint because it is not more toward the feet or below that structure.
