Final answer:
The knuckles of the hands would NOT be found on the ventral (front) side of the body; they are located on the dorsal (back) side of the hands.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks which of the following would NOT be found on the ventral side of the body. The ventral side of the body is the front or anterior aspect, and it includes features such as the nose, navel, and patella. The dorsal side of the body is the back or posterior aspect. Therefore, looking at option B, the knuckles of the hands would not be found on the ventral side, since they are on the dorsal side of the hands. The other options (nose, navel, patella, and palm of hand) are indeed found on the ventral side of the body. The knuckles are also known as the dorsal aspect of the hands, where dorsal refers to the top side where the bones of the fingers (phalanges) can be felt and seen protruding when a fist is made. In contrast, the palm of the hand is on the ventral side.
