Example: During straightening of the leg, the angle between the tibia and femur increases, which shows extension has taken place.

Prostrate cancer is the common cause of cancer in men and may be detected by rectal examination, PSA blood test, ultrasound, and biopsy. Colon cancer is the cancer of the large intestines which is the last part of the Gastrointestinal tract.
