anterior and deep
distal and proximal
medial and inferior
superior and superficial

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In anatomy, "distal" refers to being farther from the attachment point of a limb or structure, while "proximal" means closer to the attachment point. They are opposite directional terms. Anterior refers to the front, deep to depth, medial to the mid - line, inferior to below, superior to above, and superficial to the surface. These other pairs do not represent opposite directions as clearly as distal and proximal.

Answer:

B. distal and proximal
