Which question requires the subject to assume a stance with feet together and hands at sides?

• A. Can you put your feet together with your hands at your side?
• B. Can you walk in a straight line?
• C. Can you balance on one foot with eyes closed?
• D. Can you clap your hands?

Answer: (A)

This item tests the ability to assume a static standing posture with feet together and hands at the sides, a precise neutral stance used to gauge balance and control without extra movement.

The option that asks you to put your feet together with your hands at your side directly requires that exact posture, making it the best match for this task.

The other activities involve movement or actions that don’t specify a fixed stance: walking in a straight line is about locomotion and alignment while moving; balancing on one foot with eyes closed focuses on single-leg balance and head/eye closure rather than a full-body neutral stance; clapping hands targets arm coordination and motion rather than how you stand.
