Solution

The correct option is B Statement 1: True;
Statement 2: True
  • Bones are hard structures that give shape and support to the body and they cannot be bent.
  • Due to the presence of different types of joints between the bones we are able to bend our body parts such as the elbow, knee, etc.
  • Both elbow and knee are not made up of a single bone but two or more bones that are joined to each other by a hinge joint. This joint along with the muscles help us to bend the elbow and knee.
