Solution
The answer is: True.
Explanation:
The appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the upper and lower extremities, as well as the girdles (shoulder and pelvic) that attach these limbs to the axial skeleton. The upper extremities consist of the arms, forearms, wrists, and hands, while the lower extremities include the thighs, legs, ankles, and feet. Therefore, the statement that the appendicular skeleton is made up of the upper and lower extremities is correct.
