True or False: Kyphosis is an exaggerated lumbar curve.

Kyphosis refers to an abnormal forward curvature of the spine, typically in the thoracic region, leading to a hunchback appearance. The statement in the question, which characterizes kyphosis as an exaggerated lumbar curve, is incorrect because kyphosis specifically involves the thoracic spine, not the lumbar spine. The lumbar curve, which is located in the lower back, is normally lordotic (curving inward), while kyphosis is about an outward curve. Therefore, the classification of kyphosis as an exaggerated lumbar curve is false, confirming that the answer is indeed correct.
