Question

jared has an oblique fracture. which of the following would be the most likely cause of the fracture?
○ stress from repeated use of the bone
○ getting tackled in practice and twisting his leg
○ landing on an angle after a fall
○ simple exercise

Explanation:

An oblique fracture is a type of bone fracture where the break is at an angle to the bone's long axis. Twisting forces (like getting tackled and twisting the leg) are a common cause of oblique fractures. Stress from repeated use (option 1) causes stress fractures (usually hairline, not oblique). Landing on an angle (option 3) is more likely to cause a different fracture type (like a spiral or different angled, but twisting is more specific for oblique). Simple exercise (option 4) doesn't cause fractures. So the most likely cause is getting tackled and twisting the leg.

Answer:

B. Getting tackled in practice and twisting his leg (assuming the blue - marked option is the second one, with the first option being "Stress from repeated use of the bone", the second "Getting tackled in practice and twisting his leg", the third "Landing on an angle after a fall", the fourth "Simple exercise")
