An elongated tailbone occurs rarely in some newborn children. What does the presence of a tailbone indicate?

It's because the genome has undergone mutation which means the foetus has a post anal tail and when the fetus matures the genome triggers absorption in development to remove unnecessary components by disintegrating the unnecessary cells (webbing, tail, etc). When this is not removed it is because the genome did not send the signal for absorption.

An objects position is always defined relative to a reference point. If the object changes position, its motion can be described

Orlov [11]

The position of the diver is described as "below a certain point"; therefore, the reference point must be above the diver. For a diver in the middle of his dive, the bottom of the pool, the other swimmers and the far side of the swimming pool are likely to be below the diver, or at level with the diver at most. Out of the options, the only point of reference that is likely to be above the diver is B. the diving board.
