Condyle is a rounded prominence at the end of a bone, most often used for articulation with another bone.
Condyles can be found in numorous places in the body example:
Knuckles
TMJ ( Temporomandibular Joint/ aka Jaw)
Vertebral Column
In short, they can be found in both the axial and appendicular skeleton.

Is the sternum in the axial region?

Why is one luck to have an axial tilt?
because deep in the crust of the planet, a gas is released which is heavy and is the only gas that sinks, so it forces the planet onto a tilt, which is why it spins on an axial tilt.
How does the axial tilt of Uranus affect its seasons?
The sun ray hits only one area

Where can a ichthyosaur be found?
A museum, perhaps... but only the skeleton. They are extinct.
Series of vertebrae forming the axis of the human skeleton?
There is only one vertebrae that is considered the axis and that is cervical vertebrae number 2 (C2). The axial skeleton is composed of the skull, facial bones, hyoid bone, the vertebrae, sacrum, and coccyx.
Was saltopus a real dinosaur?
There has only been one Saltopus skeleton every found.... and it was only part of a skeleton. it is questionable... believe whatever you think it is.
What are the three parts of axial skeleton?
The main parts of the axial skeleton are the skull, spine, and rib cage. Think of it as if the skeleton were put on an axis directly up the middle, what would be attached to the axis. The appendicular skeleton includes the arms, legs, pelvis, collarbone, and scapula.
What is amphiarthrosis?
These are slightly movable joints and found in the axial skeleton (skull and trunk).These joints are not only found in the axial skeleton, as the Middle Radioulnar joint located in the forearm between the ulna and radius is classified as an amphiarthrotic functioning joint. and is located on the appendicular skeleton.
What is one fact about the clavicle?
It is the only bone in the pectoral girdle (humerus, scapula, clavicle) which attaches to the axial skeleton. Your arm is held onto the rest of the skeletal system by the clavicles attachment, ligaments and muscles.
What is partial knee arthroplasty?
They only replace one of the condyles in the knee, typically the medial condyle, if it has damaged cartilage.
Why is there no problem the arm clearing the widest dimension of the thoracic cage?
the thoraric cage is part of axial skeleton which is protects and covers our internal organs of our body. Wherein, the arm is part of appendicular skeleton that is freely movable joints and it's made of long bones. Only the pectoral girdle who can contributed why the arm and thorax had a relationships.
Is your gluteus maximus part of the appendicular region?

Does europa have seasons?
No, seasons are produced by axial tilt. Europa has an axial tilt of only 0.1 degrees, which is not enough for seasons.
Where are the dinosaur now?
Nowhere. only skeleton remains can be found at some science laboratories and museums.
