What is the femur?
This feature of the humerus is a space for the ulna's olecranon to fit.
What is the olecranon fossa?

What is a diarthrosis?
This bone is the attachment point for the ribs.
This feature of the femur is what you can palpate on the side of your hip.
What is the greater trochanter?
This type of bone tissue is in the epiphysis of long bones, contains no osteons, and reduces the weight of the skeleton.
What is spongy bone?
This layer of the epidermis is missing in thin skin.
What is the stratum lucidum?

What is the spine (of the scapula)?
This type of fracture is where the bone shatters and there are fragments everywhere.
What is a comminuted fracture?
This structure is found in the papillary layer of the dermis, within the dermal papillae, and detects touch.
