Detailed explanation-1: -Or, similarly, the femur is proximal to the knee, which is proximal to the ankle, which is proximal to the toes. Superior and inferior: These terms reference the body’s vertical axis, and a body part higher than another or above it is said to be superior to it; conversely, the other body part is inferior to the first.
Detailed explanation-2: -The knee is proximal to the foot. Moving distally from the hip brings you to the thigh. The foot is distal to the knee.
Detailed explanation-3: -The tibia or shinbone connects the knee to the ankle. The patella (kneecap) is the small bone in front of the knee and rides on the knee joint as the knee bends.
Detailed explanation-4: -Distal: Farther from the point of attachment. The ankle is distal to the knee.
