These answers depend on tissue structure, muscle function and joint movement characteristics.
In each of the following cases (A, B, C and D), choose the correct option as given below: (i) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). (ii) Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). (iii) (A) is true, but (R) is false. (iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true. A.
