Bones
a framework of bone or cartilage enclosing the brain of a vertebrate; the skeleton of a person's or animal's head.
What is the Skull?
provide protection for vital organs in the upper body, including the heart and lungs
What are the ribs
the large bony structure near the base of the spine to which the hind limbs or legs are attached in humans and many other vertebrates.
What is the Pelvis
sometimes known as the shin bone, is the larger and stronger of the two lower leg bones
What is the tibia
refers to the bones found in fingers, toes, paws, wings, hooves and fins of animals
What is the phalanges
Either of two slender bones that extend from the upper part of the sternum (breastbone) to the shoulder. Also called collarbone.
What is the clavicle
a long bone in the arm that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. It connects the scapula and the two bones of the lower arm
What is the humorous
the longest, heaviest, and strongest bone in the human body. The upper body's weight sits on the 2 femoral heads.
What is the femur
a long, flat, bony plate that forms the most anterior section of the rib cage. The primary function is the protection of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels from physical damage.
What is the sternum
each of the series of small bones forming the backbone, having several projections for articulation and muscle attachment, and a hole through which the spinal cord passes.
What is the vertebra
shoulder bone, shoulder blade, wing bone or blade bone, is the bone that connects the humerus (upper arm bone) with the clavicle (collar bone)
What is the Scapula
the long, thin and lateral bone of the lower leg. It runs parallel to the tibia and plays a significant role in stabilizing the ankle and supporting the muscles of the lower leg
What is the Fibula
long bone found in the forearm that stretches from the elbow to the smallest finger, and when in anatomical position, is found on the medial side of the forearm. It runs parallel to the radius, the other long bone in the forearm.
What is the ulna
the lower jaw or jawbone is the largest, strongest and lowest bone in the human facial skeleton. It forms the lower jaw and holds the lower teeth in place.
What is the Mandible
a small bone located in front of the knee joint — where the thigh bone (femur) and shinbone (tibia) meet. It protects the knee and connects the muscles in the front of the thigh to the tibia
What is the patella
form the intermediate part of the skeletal hand located between the phalanges of the fingers and the carpal bones of the wrist which forms the connection to the forearm.
What are metacarpals
Your wrist is made up of eight small bones
What are the carpals
the outer of the two bones of the forearm when viewed with the palm facing forward. All land vertebrates have this bone. In humans it is shorter than the other bone of the forearm, the ulna.
What is the Radius
a set of seven irregularly shaped bones. They are situated proximally in the foot in the ankle area
What are the tarsals
metatarsus are a group of five long bones in the foot, located between the tarsal bones of the hind- and midfoot and the phalanges of the toes.
what are the metatarsals
also known as the tailbone, is a small, triangular bone resembling a shortened tail located at the bottom of the spine. It is composed of three to five coccygeal vertebrae or spinal bones.
what are coccyx
a triangular bone in the lower back formed from fused vertebrae and situated between the two hip bones of the pelvis.
What are sacrum
the cartilaginous section at the lower end of the sternum, which is not attached to any ribs, and gradually ossifies during adult life.
