A 27-Year-Old Woman Was Found to Have an Unstable Right

A 27-year-old woman was found to have an unstable right knee joint following a severe automobile accident. On examination it was possible to pull the tibia excessively forward on the femur. A diagnosis of ruptured anterior cruciate ligament was made.
-The following statements concerning this patient are correct except which?

A) The anterior cruciate ligament is attached to the tibia in the anterior part of the intercondylar area.
B) The anterior cruciate ligament passes upward, backward, and laterally from its tibial attachment.
C) The anterior cruciate ligament is attached above to the posterior part of the medial surface of the lateral femoral condyle.
D) The anterior cruciate ligament is more commonly torn than is the posterior cruciate ligament.
E) Because the cruciate ligaments are located outside the synovial membrane, bleeding from a torn ligament does not enter the joint cavity.
