Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hyperextending a thigh at the hip joint means extending the thigh beyond its normal range of motion by moving it posteriorly. This will bring the knee and leg to a position posterior to the thorax. Therefore, the correct choice is D. Choice A is incorrect as hitting your chin with your knee is not a result of hyperextension of the thigh. Choice B is incorrect as circumduction involves a circular movement of the joint whereas hyperextension is a linear movement. Choice C is incorrect as squeezing both thighs together does not involve hyperextension of the thigh.
