Understand the definitions of each term provided in the options: Adduction, Abduction, Inversion, Flexion, and Extension.
Adduction refers to the movement of a limb towards the midline of the body. This is the key concept to focus on for this problem.
Abduction is the opposite of adduction, involving the movement of a limb away from the midline of the body.
Inversion involves turning the sole of the foot inward, which is not related to limb movement towards the midline.
Flexion and Extension refer to bending and straightening movements at a joint, respectively, and do not specifically describe movement towards the midline.
