Yes. Distal means farther from the point of attachment or from the center of the body. So the knee is distal to the hip, and the food would be distal to the knee and so on.
What else can I help you with?
Which joint is distal to the knee?
Yes. Distal means farther from the point of attachment or from the center of the body. So the knee is distal to the hip, and the food would be distal to the knee and so on.
Is the kneecap proximal to the hip?
no, the knee is distal to the thigh
Which term best describes the position of the knee relative to the hip?
Distal
Describe the location of the knee cap in as many ways you can using directional terms?
the kneecap (patella) is distal from the hip and apoximent to the knee.
Is the leg distal to the thigh?
No. It is part of the leg. The thigh is proximal to the hip and superior to the knee.
What is The knee to the hip?
The knee to hip ratio is a measurement used in anthropometry to assess body proportions. It compares the length of the leg from the hip to the knee to the length of the leg from the knee to the floor. This ratio can vary among individuals and populations.
Are the toes distal to the knee?
It is proximal as the knee is closer to the median / midline of the body than the foot. The foot is distal. Distal suggests a structure being further away from the median plane or the root of the limb than another structure in the limb. Proximal refers to a structure being closer to the median plane or root of the limb than another structure in the limb
Is the ankle proximal or distal to the hip?
The ankle is distal to the hip, meaning it is further away from the trunk of the body compared to the hip.
Is the ankle distal to knee?
Yes, the ankle is distal to the knee. This means the ankle is further away from the body's midline compared to the knee.
What direction is the ankle to the knee?
The ankle is distal to the knee.
What is distral in knee?
"Distal" refers to a position farther away from the point of attachment or origin. In the context of the knee, distal would refer to structures located further away from the body, such as the lower leg or foot.
Where is the Sartorius?
Sartorius is one of the Quadricep muscles. It is the only muscle that I know of that has a double insertion point. It inserts on the distal part of the hip and serpentines to the medial part of the knee where it inserts.
