Answer
A
She manually moved the patient through different motions.
B
She asked the patient to move their neck and back in different ways.
C
She pressed on the patient’s vertebrae and the upper part of the pelvis.
D
She assessed the patient’s reflexes, balance, and coordination.

Explanation

Active range-of-motion (ROM) testing asks the patient to move their own joints or body parts through different motions. So Anne-Marie most likely asked the patient to move their neck and back in different ways. Manually moving the patient would be passive ROM testing.
