Long bones are some of the longest bones in the body, such as the Femur, Humerus and Tibia but are also some of the smallest including the Metacarpals, Metatarsals and Phalanges. The classification of a long bone includes having a body which is longer than it is wide, with growth plates (epiphysis) at either end, having a hard outer surface of compact bone and a spongy inner known as cancellous bone containing bone marrow. Both ends of the bone are covered in hyaline cartilage to help protect the bone and aid shock absorption.
Bones can be found in many places in the human body. They can be found in your hands, your fingers, your arms, your feet, your legs, your hips, your head, and in many other places. The purpose of bones is to 1) give your body the structure it needs to be able to support itself and 2) protect your inner organs. For example, it one didn't have bones in their arms, their arms wouldn't be able to lift themselves up! They would just be limp pieces of flesh that do nothing. Another example is your ribs, they protect your heart and lungs. Both of these examples show how bones give your body structure and protect your organs.
