What would you like to do?
The femur is the strongest and thickest bone in the body. It can take about 600 LBS of vertical force before it breaks. That pretty much means that if you set it up so it was horizontal, with a space in between the things holding it up, and put 600 pounds on it, it would snap. That's strong.

Is the femur an organ?
Yes the femur can be considered an organ. Think of it this way, the definition of a tissue is a group of functionally related cells and their extracellular material (or interc…ellular products) which in turn together have a common function. The definition of an organ is a group of different tissues which together have a common function. And of course an organ system is many different organs working together for a common function (to support the organism) Bone tissue, or osseous tissue is the major component of the skeletal system. However, its not the only tissue that resides within the skeletal system. Although the femur is primarily composed of bone tissue, it is not the only tissue type found within it. For example, periosteum (dense irregular connective tissue) and also the medullary canal (filled with adipose, again, spongy or cancellous bone (found mainly in the epiphysis sections) contains myeloid connective tissue. Coming back to the definition stated above, yes the femur is composed of many different tissues, which have a common function. The skeletal system is made up of all the bones in the body. This is because why? thinking again back to the above definition, an organ system is made of different organs which have a common function, and those different organs are different bones. So yes, the femur can be considered an organ :)
