In the first 16 of these images?

How does your text define "elements of art" and "types of movement"?
Yes, those images are it.

My textbook says "The elements of art are the basic components, or building blocks: color, value, line, texture, shape, form, and space. Artists use the elements of art to express their ideas."

and "Movement is the principle of art used to create the look and feel of action and to guide the viewer's eye throughout the work of art."
Are there any of those elements of art that the artist did NOT use? Give your reasons.

HOW did the artist use each of those elements?

Do you understand action from this piece? What is there in the artwork that depicts action? More than one action?
