A severe medial blow to the knee usually tears __________. the PCL, fibular collateral ligament, and lateral meniscus only the ACL the patellar ligament and the medial and lateral patellar retinacula the oblique popliteal and arcuate popliteal ligaments the ACL, tibial collateral ligament, and medial meniscus

Answer 1

Answer:

ACL, tibial collateral ligament and medial meniscus.

Explanation:

A torn Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) , torn tibial collateral ligament and torn medial meniscus are injuries commonly attached to the knee.

They ACL and tibial collateral ligament occurs during sport activities when the femur or tibia Shifts in different direction while the Meniscus gets torn when there is a direct pressure on the cartilage between the femur and tibia after it has shift to a different direction than it's usual shift.

Answer 2

Answer: ACL, tibial collateral ligament, and medial meniscus

Explanation: ACL: A torn anterior cruciate ligament in the knee.

The ACL is the tissue which connects the thighbone to the shinbone(tibia) from the knee. Most ACL injuries occur during sports such as basketball, and football,

Medial Meniscus: The medial meniscus is located in the knee, it is a cartilage with crescent shape. It's usually between the two joints the thigh bone(femur) and the shin bone(tibia). The meniscus works like a smooth surface for easy movement of the joint.

Tibial collateral ligament (TCL): it's main function is to prevent the leg from extending too far inward, it helps to keep the knee stable, which makes rotation easy and stress free. Injuries to the TCL are usually due to external forces.
