Study Notes

Skeletal System: Appendicular Notes

  • Metatarsal I is an important bone in the foot structure, located in the first (big) toe area.
  • The sacroiliac joint connects the spine to the pelvis, playing a key role in the body's stability.
  • The shaft of the tibia is the long, central part of the shin bone, crucial for weight bearing.
  • The pubis is one of three bones that compose the pelvis; it is located in the anterior part.
  • The patella, commonly known as the kneecap, protects the knee joint and helps in leg movement.
  • Carpal bones, including Hamate, Scaphoid, Lunate, and Pisiform, consist of eight short bones located in the wrist.
  • Tarsal bones include Talus, Calcaneous (heel bone), Cuboid, and Navicular, forming the ankle and foot structure.
  • The acetabulum is the hip socket that articulates with the femur, supporting lower body movement.
  • The humerus is the bone found in the arm, serving as a key support and facilitator for arm movement.
  • In the forearm, the ulna is more medial compared to the radius, which is positioned laterally.
  • There are 14 phalanges in the hand, divided among the fingers, assisting in dexterity and gripping.
  • The upper extremity bones consist of the Humerus, Radius, Ulna, and Carpals, contributing to arm movement.
  • The lower extremity comprises Femur, Tibia, Fibula, Patella, and Tarsals, essential for walking and support.
  • The iliac crest is the superior border of the ilium, forming part of the pelvis and providing attachment for muscles.
  • The pubic symphysis is a cartilaginous joint uniting the left and right pubic bones, important for pelvic stability.
  • The olecranon is the bony prominence of the elbow, serving as a lever for arm extension.
  • The acromial end of the clavicle articulates with the acromion of the scapula, forming part of the shoulder girdle.
  • The femur is the longest bone in the body, located in the thigh, and is vital for leg support.
  • The tibia, also known as the shinbone, is larger and stronger than the fibula, critical for weight distribution.
  • The shaft of the radius is the long portion of the radius bone, significant for forearm rotation.
  • Metatarsals II and III are part of the midfoot, involved in weight distribution during walking.
  • The acromion is an extension of the scapula that forms the highest point of the shoulder.
  • The lower extremity follows a proximal to distal order: Femur, Patella, Tibia, Fibula, Tarsals, Metatarsals, and Phalanges.
  • The foot contains 7 tarsals and 5 metatarsals that play key roles in balance and movement.
