Solution

The correct option is C

Abduction and adduction


The movements depicted in image are abduction and adduction.

The movement away from the mid-line is abduction while the movement toward the mid-line is adduction.

This means when a person is lifting his arm till his shoulder height, it is moving away from mid-line and hence is termed abduction. The opposite happens when the person lowers his arm and hence moving toward the mid-line or adduction.
