    The _________ divides the abs vertically.

    • Linea alba

    • Aponeurosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Linea alba
    Explanation
    The linea alba is a fibrous structure that runs vertically in the midline of the abdomen, dividing the abdominal muscles into left and right sides. It is a white, tendinous line that is formed by the fusion of the aponeuroses (flat tendons) of the abdominal muscles. The linea alba provides stability and support to the abdominal wall and helps to maintain the integrity of the midline.

    The _________ divides the abs horizontally.

    • Linea alba

    • Aponeurosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Aponeurosis
    Explanation
    The aponeurosis is a broad, flat tendon-like structure that connects muscles to other muscles or to bones. In the context of the question, the aponeurosis divides the abs horizontally. This means that it separates the abdominal muscles into upper and lower sections. The linea alba, on the other hand, is a fibrous band that runs vertically down the midline of the abdomen, not horizontally. Therefore, the correct answer is aponeurosis.
