• These are: 1. Vault, 2. Uneven Bars, 3. Balance Beam, and 4. Floor Exercise.
• Each apparatus tests different skills: the balance beam requires extreme focus and stability, while the floor exercise combines acrobatic skills with dance and music.

• Men's Gymnastics: Men compete on six apparatus: Floor Exercise, Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Vault, Parallel Bars, and Horizontal Bar.
• Scoring: Scoring is based on Difficulty (D-score) and Execution (E-score).

• Option D (8): No standard international artistic gymnastics competition uses 8 apparatus for a single gender category.
