D) Ligaments

E) All of these structures are found in a synovial joint.

12) All synovial joints contain at least 1 meniscus.

13) Which of the following is NOT true of joint movements?

A) Most joints are flexed and abducted when the body is in anatomical position.

B) When a skeletal muscle contracts to move a joint, the insertion is pulled toward the origin.

C) In the upper and lower limbs, the origin is typically proximal to the insertion.

D) The more moveable end of a skeletal muscle is called its insertion.
