Shortened limbs affect posture directly, so intrinsic makes sense.

I remember practicing questions about postural deviations, and I think intrinsic factors are related to the body itself.

I've got this! A shortened right leg is an example of an intrinsic factor that can contribute to a postural deviation. The question is asking about the type of factor, and intrinsic factors are those that originate within the individual. I'm confident that's the correct answer.

Wait, is this asking about the assessment of postural deviations or the actual factors themselves? I'm a bit confused on the wording of the question. I'll have to read it over again and see if I can figure out the best approach.

Okay, let me see. A shortened right leg would be considered an external or extrinsic factor that can lead to a postural deviation, right? I'm pretty sure that's the right answer, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know we covered postural deviations in class, but I can't quite remember the specific terminology for the different factors. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question about the factors that contribute to postural deviations. I'm pretty confident I know the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic factors, so I'll carefully consider each option.

A shortened leg is the result of a leg being, well, shorter. Seems pretty intrinsic to me, unless someone surgically altered it. Hmm, maybe that's an 'extrinsic' factor?

Extrinsic factors are things outside the body, so this has to be an intrinsic factor. Easy peasy!
