  • In what way can a pronated foot predispose a person to certain pathologies?

  • By reducing the risk of other predisposing factors
  • By causing tibialis posterior overuse due to the end position of the foot (correct)
  • By preventing rapid pronation of the foot
  • By decreasing the load through the tendon
  • What is a potential consequence of a flat foot or pronated foot type?

  • No impact on the load through the tendon or rate of loading
  • Increased risk of certain pathologies and potentially other predisposing factors (correct)
