Answer:

The correct answer would be option - the ankle is inferior to the knee.

However in the case of limbs there is is another directional term is used that is proximal and distal which is termed on the base of the distance from the center of the body for the part of limbs. Proximal is near the center of the body while distal is away from the body. Ankle are farther than the knee so the best directional term is the distal to the knee, however inferior is also used t explain the anatomical position of these parts.

Thus, the correct answer is - the ankle is inferior to the knee.
