Head, neck, trunk, and vertebral column

Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the term 'axial portion' of the human body. The axial portion refers to the central part of the body, which includes structures along the body's vertical axis. This typically encompasses the head, neck, trunk, and vertebral column.
Step 2: Review the options provided in the question. Identify which structures belong to the axial portion versus the appendicular portion. The appendicular portion includes limbs and girdles (e.g., arms, legs, pelvis, scapula).
Step 3: Analyze the first option: 'Head, neck, trunk, and vertebral column.' These structures are part of the axial portion because they form the central axis of the body.
Step 4: Examine the other options: 'Hands, feet, clavicle, and patella,' 'Femur, humerus, radius, and ulna,' and 'Arms, legs, pelvis, and scapula.' These structures are part of the appendicular portion, as they are associated with limbs and girdles.
Step 5: Conclude that the correct answer is the first option, as it accurately lists structures located in the axial portion of the human body.
