T or F: The femoral nerve, artery, and vein transition from the pelvic region to the anterior compartment of the thigh via the femoral triangle.
True
T or F: The adductor canal transmits the femoral artery and nerve to the popliteal fossa.
False
This statement is false the adductor canal transmits the femoral artery and VEIN (not nerve) to the popliteal fossa.
