distal end of metacarpal bones.




Capitate

The proximal end of proximal phalanx III makes a joint end with the

Ischium

Anatomy:


- Ischial tuberosity bears body weight


- Ischial spine


- Lesser sciatic notch between ischial spine and tuberosity


- Ischial ramus joins inferior pubic ramus




What bone are you are sitting down on?

Pubic symphysis

Fibrocartilage in between the two ischium.

Intervertebral discs


Pubic symphysis between ischium


Knee joints

Where is fibrocartilage found?

Os Coxae

Hip Bone is called

Acetabulum

Hip Joint Socket


- Joins with proximal end of femur

Pubic Angle

- This is less in males


- Lighter, shallowed in females (>100)

Ilium

Anatomy:


- iliac crest and iliac fossa


- greater sciatic notch contains sciatic nerve (long nerve for leg and foot)




The bones you touch when you put your hands on your hips

Femur

Anatomy:


- Nearly spherical head and constricted (Ligament to fovea capitis)


- Greater and lesser trochanters for muscle attachment


- Posterior ridge called linea aspera


- Medial and lateral condyles and epicondyles on distal end

Proximal end of tibia


Proximal end of patella (triangular sesamoid)

Distal end of femur forms joint end with (2)

Tibia

- Thick, weight bearing bone (medial)


- Broad superior head with 2 flat articular surfaces (medial and lateral condyles - articulates with those of femur)


- Roughened anterior surface palpated below patella (Tibial tuberosity)


- Distal expansion: Medial malleolus - articulates with talus of foot (superior trochlear surface)

Proximal head of Fibula

Proximal part of Tibia forms joint end with

Distal part of the tibia and fibula, the medial malleolus and lateral malleolus

What makes up the bony projection on your ankle?

Superior trochlea surface of Talus (The most superior tarsal bone)

Distal end of tibia forms joint end with

Fibula

- Slender lateral strut stabilizes ankle


- Does not bear body weight - spare bone tissue


- Lateral malleolus: distal expansion


- Joined to tibia by interosseous membrane

Tarsal Bones

- Shaped and arranged differently from carpal bones due to load-bearing role of ankle


- Talus is most superior which forms ankle joint with tibia and fibula, sits upon calcaneus and articules with navicular


- Calcaneus forms heel (achilles tendon)


- Distal row of tarsal bones: cuboid, medial, intermediate and lateral cuneiforms

Cervical Vertebrae Characteristics

- Branched spinous Process points inferiorly


- Oval body that is wider side to side


- Vertebral foramen is large and generally triangular


- Each transverse process contains a transverse foramen through which vertebral arteries pass to service the brain

Thoracic Vertebrae Characteristics
