a. Shoulder girdle, pelvis, and trunk
b. Head, neck, and arm
c. Head, neck, and trunk
d. Pelvis, thigh, leg, and foot

8. What separates one body part from the next?
a. Organ
b. Joint
c. Bursa
d. Skin
ANS: b
Joints represent regions where movements between parts of the skeleton
take place. Therefore, joints separate one body part from the next.
PTS: 1
DIF: 1
REF: p. 5
9. Which statement is accurate regarding movement of a body part?
, a. A body part moves relative to an adjacent body part, and this motion
occurs at the joint located between them.
b. A body part changes its location in space, and this motion occurs at a
distant joint of the body.
c. Whenever motion occurs, at least two body parts must be moving at
the same time.
d. When a body part moves, the joint next to that body part remains
motionless.
ANS: a
Skeletal structure movements can only occur at joints, and the only parts
that move in relation to the joint are the ones adjacent to the joint.
PTS: 1
DIF: 2
REF: p. 5
