B)Give one relevant reason for your answer
A
Using your anatomical directional terminology, describe in 1-2 sentences the position of the acromion compares to the scapula.
Name and describe the arrangement of the bones of the arm (between the scapula and the carpal bones, not including the scapula or carpal bones) and the bones of the leg (between the hip bone and the tarsal bones, not including the hip bone or tarsal bones). You should of course use anatomical position as the reference point. And you should be using the appropriate anatomical directional terms.
