Bennett’s movement occurs:
- A. on the balancing side and involves a shift of the mandibular condyle in the lower joint compartment forward and in the lateral direction.
- B. on the working side and involves a sheer lateral movement of the mandibular condyle in the lower joint compartment.
- C. on the balancing side and involves the movement of the mandibular condyle in the upper joint compartment downward and forward.
- D. on the working side and involves the movement of the mandibular condyle downward and backward.
- E. on the working side and involves a slight movement of the mandibular condyle in the lateral direction outside.

Bennett movement is the bodily lateral shift of the mandible; consider what the working-side condyle does during a lateral excursion.
