deltoid tuberosity
located on the humerus, larger of the two bumps on the sides of the distal end of the bone. this one is on the medial side
medial epicondyle
on humerus, smaller of the two bumps on the sides of the distal end of the bone. this one is on the opposite side of the head
lateral epicondyle
on humerus, on distal end, larger depression in the back of the bone
olecranon fossa
on humerus, on distal end, smaller depression in the front of the bone
coronoid fossa
on humerus, on distal end, rounded protrusion on lateral side of arm bone
capitulum
on humerus, on distal end, hourglass shaped protrusion
trochlea
forearm bone, shaped like a bottle opener
ulna
in bottle opener part of ulna, the top part of the larger top bump. forms the back of the elbow
olecranon process
in bottle opener part of the ulna, the lower bump, connects with the smaller fossa on the humerus
coronoid process
on the distal end of the ulna, shaped like a stilletto
styloid process
forearm bone that looks like a golf tee
radius
on radius, disk like, golf tee, articulates with the capitulum on the humerus
head
on radius, proximal side, downward from the head, a rough bump
radial tuberosity
on radius, on most distal point that angles down and comes to a point
styloid process
wrist bones
carpals
most proximal long bones of the hand
metacarpals
ilium, ischium, and pubis. 1/2 of pelvis
os coxa
top bone on the os coxa, if drawn line through round hip part
ilium
top rounded part of the ilium
illiac crest
along the lateral, anterior side of the illium, a bump, opposite to the sciatic notch
anterior superior iliac spine
on the os coxa, posterior, a giant sideways U shape cut out. opposite side from the anterior superior iliac spine
greater sciatic notch
located above the giant U cut out on the os coxa, toards the midline, where the sacrum attaches
auricular surface
anterior facing, lower, bone of the os coxa
pubis
flat part on pubis where it meets the other pubis bone, this entire joint including the cartilage between
pubic symphysis
formation made when two pubis bones come together forming an upside down U shape
pubic arch
rounded butt bone
ischium
on the ischium, downward from the greater sciatic notch, small pointed bump, facing posteriorly
ischial spine
rough rounded back part of the ischium
ischial tuberosity
hip socket, deep, faces lateral and anterior, where femur joins
acetabulum
rim lining the inside of the pelvis
pelvic brim
how can you tell if you have a left or right os coxa?
with the sciatic notch in your thumb groove, curl fingers around, if they land in the acetabulum, that is the hand of the bone you have
longest bone in the body
femur

head
depression in the head of the femur
fovea
skinny part attaching the head of the femur to the rest of the femur
neck
on the femur, higher up, larger, rounded bump on the proximal side

on the femur, lower bump below the head, slightly smaller than the other
lesser trochanter
rough patch running down the long skinny part of the femur
linea aspera
following the ridge down the femur, when it branches it is on the medial side
medial supracondylar line
following the ridge down the femur, when it branches it is on the lateral side
