Answer:d) anterior, proximal to knee

Explanation:Terms like anterior, posterior, distal etc are used to describe the position of different parts of the body.

Such terms are used in describing the anatomy of an organism and they ensure precision of the part of the body being considered.

Anterior relates to the frontward part of an organism. It could also be called ventral and can relate to the upward part of an organism.for example the eyes are said to be anterior to the body.

Posterior is the opposite term of anterior. Posterior could also be called dorsal.

Proximal describes nearness to the point of attachment to the body.

Distal describes a position that is farthest to the point of attachment to the body.

For example, the biceps is said to be in proximal to the shoulder and the fingers can be said to be distal from the shoulder.
