Those bones are the tarsals, which make the ankle.
The distal ends of the tibia and fibula articulate with a single tarsal bone called the talus.

What is the name of the joint at the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia that the patella overlaps?
The tibiofemoral joint is at the distal and of the femur and proximal end of the tibia. The femur is the thighbone, and the tibia is the larger of the two bones of the lower leg.
A bone that has two large trochanters on its proximal end?
The humerus has two large trochanters on its proximal end.
Is the hock of a cat located at the proximal end of the tibia and the distal end of the femur?
The hock of the cat is located between the tibia, or shin, and the talus bone, which is a bone of the paw. The cat's hock joint is comparable to a human ankle joint.
The femur joins with the tibia at its distal end and fits into what at its proximal end?
The femur fits into the acetabulum at its proximal end. The acetabulum is part of the pelvis.
What bones articulates with the inferior end of the femur?
The upper end of tibia bone.
What is the name of the joint at the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia that the patella overlaps?
The tibiofemoral joint is at the distal and of the femur and proximal end of the tibia. The femur is the thighbone, and the tibia is the larger of the two bones of the lower leg.
Does the calcaneous articulate with the distal end of the tibia?
The distal tibia articulates with the talus. The proximal tibia articulates with the femur.
What are the three bones that articulate with the femur?
The proximal end of the femur articulates with the acetabulum, which is the socket joint of the pelvis. The acetabulum is formed by the fusion of the three bones which make up the pelvis, the ischium, the ilium and the pubis. The distal end of the femur articulates with the patellae (knee caps) and the tibia.
A bone that has two large trochanters on its proximal end?
The humerus has two large trochanters on its proximal end.
What are the proximal end landmarks of the tibia?
The primary proximal end landmarks of the tibia are the lateral and medial condyles. These bumps at the top of the tibia are the site where the tibia articulates with the femur. Between the condyles is the intercondylar area, which is the place where the ligaments of the knee attach. The meniscus attaches in the intercondylar area as well.
Is the hock of a cat located at the proximal end of the tibia and the distal end of the femur?
The hock of the cat is located between the tibia, or shin, and the talus bone, which is a bone of the paw. The cat's hock joint is comparable to a human ankle joint.
The femur joins with the tibia at its distal end and fits into what at its proximal end?
The femur fits into the acetabulum at its proximal end. The acetabulum is part of the pelvis.
What are the bones that articulates with the proximal end of the tibia and fibula?
It is the inner bone of the lower leg, from the knee to the ankle.
Which bone is found anterior to the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia?
The patella is anterior to the joint between the femur and tibia. The patella is also known as the kneecap.
What bones articulates with the inferior end of the femur?
The upper end of tibia bone.
The distal end of the femur and the proximal ends of the tibia and fibula form which joint carpal stifle elbow hip?
stifle
What muscle originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine of the hip and inserts onto the proximal end of the tibia?
rectus femoris
