Assuming no obvious postural deviations, the line of gravity falls ___________ to the medial-lateral axis of the hip and ________ to the medial-lateral axis of the tibiofemoral joint.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The line of gravity in a person with no obvious postural deviations typically falls posterior to the medial-lateral axis of the hip and anterior to the medial-lateral axis of the tibiofemoral (knee) joint. This positioning helps maintain stability and balance by leveraging the body's natural alignment and the passive support structures of the joints.
