Not moving an individual correctly can cause ligaments to sprain. This is why individuals must never be dragged when being moved as this can cause joints to over

Objective: To learn the function of the knee and how its ligaments work to create the movement the knee makes by taking apart the knee and reconstructing it with different materials to replace the ligaments. Hypothesis: If we replace the cow’s knee tendons with rubber bands then it will work like a new knee because the rubber bands will provide the support‚ strength‚ and flexibility it needs. Safety: Wear gloves while handling the knee‚ use precaution when using the Drill‚ and clean the utensils
