|
Phalanges |
- bones of the digits - Proximal phalanges articulate with the head of the metacarpal - Dital phalanges bone is tip of finger |
|
Pelvic Girdle |
- pelvis is composed of four bones: sacrum, coccyx, left and right ossa coxae |
|
Os Coxae |
- hip bone formed from three seperate bones: ilium, ischium, and pubis - |
|
Acetabulum |
- curved depression on lateral suface where the femure articulates |
|
Ilium |
- larges of 3 bones of the Os Coxae - forms the superior region and larges portion of the actabular surface |
|
Iliac Crest |
- super most ridge of the lithuim |
|
Ischium |
- lithium fuses into it - near the superior and posterior margins of the acerburium |
|
Pubis |
- fuses with the lithium and ischium at the acetabuium |
|
Obturatory Foramen |
- space in the os casze that is encircel by both pucic and ischial rami |
|
Pelvic Brim |
- continouse ovel ridge that extends from pubic crest, pectorial line, and acurate line - subdivides into the true and false pelvis |
|
False Pelvis |
- supeiror to the pelvic brim |
|
Pelvic Inlet |
- superior postitioned space enclsoed by pelvic brim - spae surronded by the pelvic brim |
|
Pelvic Outlet |
- infreiorly placed opening bounded by the coccyx ischial tuberostries inferior boarder of the pubic sythesis |
|
Femur |
- longest bone in the body - articultes with the acetabulum of pelivs |
|
Fovea |
- ligament that connects the head of the femur to the acetabellum |
|
Neck |
- distal to the head - joins the shaft of the femur at an angle |
|
Greater Tochanter |

|
Lesser Tochanter |
- located at the femur's postermedial sufae |
|
Liinea Aspera |
- posterior surface of shaft that denotes attachment site for thigh muscles |
|
Addcutor Tubercle |
- raise projection that that is the site of attachment for addutor magnus msucel |
|
Medial/Lateral Condyles |
- two smooth oval articulating surfaces |
|
Medial/Lateral Epidondyle |
- superior to condyle projections |
|
Patella |
- knee cap - large rough triangle sesamoid bone located within the tendon of the quadricpes femoris muscle - allows the tendon of the quadriceps femoris to glid more smoothly and protects knee joint |
