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?

A shortened leg is definitely an intrinsic factor of postural deviation.

Elemental? What does that even mean in this context? I'm glad I'm not the one writing these exam questions.

Intrinsic means it's something within the body, like a shortened leg.

Assessment? Really? How is a shortened leg an assessment? This question is a real head-scratcher.

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

That's correct! Intrinsic factors like muscle imbalances or structural abnormalities can definitely affect posture.

Yes, you're right! An intrinsic factor is something within the body that can contribute to a postural deviation.

I'm pretty sure a shortened right leg is an intrinsic factor, since it's a physical characteristic of the individual's body.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be B) extrinsic because it's something external affecting the posture.

I agree with Susana, a shortened right leg would be an intrinsic factor.
