The correct option is C Statement 1: True; Statement 2: True

• Bones are hard structures which give shape and support to our body. They cannot be bent.
• Bending of our body parts such as the elbow, knee is possible due to the presence of different types of joints between the bones.
• Elbow and knee are not made up of a single bone but two or more bones which are joined to each other by a hinge joint.
• This joint along with the muscles help us to bend the elbow and knee.
