Acetabulum
a depression in the hip bone that receives the head of the femur
Cervical
a secondary curvature of the vertebral column that develops as a result of a child being able to holds its head without support
Distal Phalanx
bones in the tip of the fingers
Epicondyle
bump on condyle of femur
Coronoid Fossa of Humerus
coronoid process of ulna
Fovea Capitis
depression on head of femur
Lateral Malleolus
distal end of fibula at ankle
Linea Aspera
elevated midline ridge on shaft
The parietal bones meet the frontal bone along the sagittal source?
false
Two of the false ribs, the eleventh and twelfth ribs, are called floating ribs because they do not have a posterior attachment to the spine.
false
Sacrum
five fused vertebrae
Coccyx
four vertebrae compromising the "tailbone"

Tibia and Fibula
lateral epicondyle
NOT a Cranial Bone of the Skull
mandible
What Hard Palate is Composed of
maxillary and palatine bones
Tibia
medial epicondyle
Olecranon
most proximal feature of the ulna
Capitulum
part of humerus that articulates with the head of the radius
Sphenoid
part of the sella turcica
Patella
patellar intercondylar surface of femur
The ________ is the border between the true and false pelvis.
pelvis inlet
Greater Trochanter
projects laterally at junction of neck/shaft
True Ribs
ribs that join the sternum directly by costal cartilages
In the appendicular skeleton, the pectoral girdle is made up of the _____________ and the _______________.
scapula, clavicle
In the anatomical position, the radius and ulna are parallel to one another. Therefore, the forearm is in the _________ position.
supinated
Coronal
suture between frontal and parietal bones
Thoracic and Sacral Curvatures
the primary curves of the vertebral column
Lambdoid Suture
the suture that articulates with most bones
Trochlea of Humerus Articulation
trochlear notch of ulna
A middle phalanx is not present in the thumb.
true
Most ribs have two articulations with the vertebrae, they head articulates with the body and the tubercle articulates with the transverse process.
true
The deltoid tuberosity is part of the humorous.
true
The fibula does Not bear any weight during walking or standing
true
The sternum consists of the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process.
true
The superior seven pairs of ribs are called true ribs because they directly attach to the sternum through the costal cartilages.
true
The thoracic cage consists of the thoracic vertebrae, the ribs, and the sternum.
true
The upper limbs are more mobile but less stable as compared to the lower limbs.
true
Pollex
two phalanges compromising the thumb
Short Bones
what the bones of the wrist and ankles are classified as
What Processes the Zygomatic Arch is Composed of
zygomatic and temporal bones
Lumbar Vertebrae
-five vertebrae in the low back -largest vertebrae
Condyle
-large, smooth, rounded articulating oval structure -tibial surface articulating with femur
Femur
-longest bone in the body -extends from the hip to the knee -has a large, rounded head -articulates with the patella
Facial Bones
-maxilla -nasal -zygomatic
Cranium
-occipital -parietal -temporal
Tibial Tuberosity
-patellar ligament attachment site
Bones That Make up the Os Coxae
-pubis -ilium -ischium
Cervical Vertebrae
-seven vertebrae in the neck -contains transverse foramina
Cranium and Orbit
-sphenoid -ethmoid -frontal
Parts of a typical vertebra.
-spinous process -body -vertebral forman
Medial Malleolus
-the process of the tibia you are feeling when you palpate the medial side of your ankle -distal process of tibia at ankle
Thoracic Vertebrae
-twelve vertebrae that articulate with ribs -costal facets articulate with ribs
Functions of the Paranasal Sinuses
-warm and humidify air -make some skull bones lighter -provide resonance to the voice
Orbit
-zygomatic -maxilla
Proximal Phalanx
articulates with metacarpal
Olecranon Fossa of Humerus Articulation
olecranon of ulna
