Which term refers to "bending the toes and foot down at the ankle"?

  1. Dorsiflexion

  2. Hyperextension

  3. Internal rotation

  4. Plantar flexion

The correct answer is: Dorsiflexion

This is the correct answer because dorsiflexion is the movement of the toes and foot downward at the ankle. This movement is opposite of plantar flexion, which is the bending of the toes and foot upward at the ankle. Hyperextension is the excessive extension or bending of a body part beyond its normal range of motion, and internal rotation is the movement of a body part towards the center of the body. While these terms may involve movement at the ankle, they do not specifically refer to the bending of the toes and foot downward at the ankle. Therefore, they are not the correct answer to the question.
