Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Passive range of motion is that in which there is no active involvement of the patient. Active range of motion is performed independently by patients. Active assistive range of motion is with assistance to the patient. There is no such thing as resistive range of motion.
