The thumbs point inward, toward the legs.
D
The eyes and head face forward.
E
The body is standing.
F
The feet are positioned drastically apart.

Explanation

In anatomical position, a person stands upright with the head and eyes facing forward. The arms rest at the sides with the palms facing forward, and the feet are together or slightly apart. The thumbs point outward, away from the legs, so the statement that they point inward is false; the feet are not positioned drastically apart.
