Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The articulation of the mandible and the temporal bone is the temporomandibular joint. The other responses are not correct.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Moving a limb toward the midline of the body is called adduction; moving a limb away from the midline of the body is called abduction. Flexion is bending a limb at a joint; and extension is straightening a limb at a joint.
