Which term refers to being near the point of attachment?
Correct Answer:
Proximal
Explanation:
Near the point of attachment is described as proximal. This term is used to indicate something closer to where a limb attaches to the body (the trunk). For example, the thigh is proximal to the knee because it is nearer to the hip, the point of attachment, than the ankle is. The opposite term, distal, means farther from that attachment. Superior and inferior describe vertical position relative to the head and feet, not proximity to the attachment.
