Are you in undergrad? Seems like most med schools would have covered this already. Especially #1.

I'm gonna say False... The patellar ligament attaches to the tibial tuberosity... we never learned the anterior crest of the tibia. We only learned anterior border. If border = crest, then the answer is False. I'd consult whatever you're learning from to find out what constitutes the crest.

moving to pre-osteo, as this is an undergrad question. OP, try asking your professor. I also found these answers by looking in my anatomy book.

i agree with tide. We never learned "anterior crest," and the patellar ligament definitely inserts on the tibial tuberosity, so either way its wrong. You coulda opened up your anatomy book and found those answers out in 2 seconds!

SDN is not the proper place to seek homework assistance. Closing.
