Human Anatomy: Pelvic Girdle & Leg Bones

A flat, elongated bone in the chest, consisting of a manubrium, body, and xiphoid process.

Bony structures that partially enclose and protect the chest cavity, forming a cage with the sternum and vertebral column.

The first seven pairs of ribs that attach directly to the sternum via costal cartilage.

The five pairs of ribs that don't attach directly to the sternum, with the last two pairs being floating ribs.

The last two pairs of ribs, connected only to the vertebral column, providing flexibility to the lower rib cage.

A triangular, compact bone formed by the fusion of five sacral vertebrae.

A small, tapering bone formed by the fusion of four coccygeal vertebrae, forming the tailbone.

The bony structure that supports the upper limbs, consisting of the clavicle and scapula.

S-shaped bone that extends horizontally across the upper thorax and neck.

Flat, triangular bone located on the back of the thorax, forming the shoulder joint.

A cavity on the scapula that receives the head of the humerus, forming a ball-and-socket joint.

Elongated bone of the upper arm, connecting the shoulder to the elbow.

The rounded top of the humerus that fits into the glenoid cavity.

Projections on the humerus, one larger than the other.

Continued research and monitoring of migratory birds in Maharashtra is essential for their well-being.

Scientific studies and tracking are essential to identify threats and adapt conservation strategies for migratory birds.

Understanding the ecology of migratory birds provides crucial information for their effective conservation.

Collaboration and community involvement are vital for protecting habitats, enacting policies, and raising awareness about migratory birds.

Protecting migratory birds in Maharashtra requires a collective effort, ensuring the continued presence of these remarkable creatures.

The study of the human skeleton, focusing on the bones that form the central axis of the body.

The parts of the skeleton that lie perpendicular to the central axis, including limbs and their connecting structures.

The skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage form the axial skeleton.

The vertebral column consists of 33 vertebrae, each with a specific structure and function.

The seven vertebrae in the neck region, characterized by their smaller size and unique features.

The typical cervical vertebrae, characterized by their smaller size, broader width than length, and specific processes.

The first cervical vertebra, characterized by its ring-like structure and lack of a spinous process.

The second cervical vertebra, characterized by the presence of the odontoid process, allowing for rotation of the head.

The last cervical vertebra, characterized by a longer, flattened spinous process and a unique foramen transversarium.

The 12 vertebrae in the thoracic region, connected to the ribs and forming the ribcage.

The five vertebrae in the abdominal region, characterized by their large size and specific processes.
