Chapter 9, Problem 1CTQ
Katie loves pretending that she's a human cannonball. As she jumps off the diving board, she assumes the proper position before she pounds into the water: head and thighs tucked against her chest; back rounded; arms pressed against her sides while her forearms, crossed in front of her shins, hold her legs tightly folded against her chest. Use the proper anatomical terms to describe the position of Katie's back, head, and free limbs.
