Bending a body part is called:

  1. Adduction

  2. Extension

  3. Flexion

  4. Rotation

The correct answer is: Adduction

Bending a body part is called flexion. Flexion refers to the action of decreasing the angle between two body parts. For example, when you bend your arm at the elbow, you are performing flexion. In the options provided: - Adduction is the movement of a body part towards the midline of the body. - Extension is the opposite of flexion, where the angle between two body parts is increased. - Rotation refers to the movement of a body part around its own axis. Therefore, the correct answer is flexion, as it specifically relates to the action of bending a body part.
