The carpus is distal to the scapulohumeral joint. In other words, your wrist is further away from the mid-line of your body than the joint between your shoulder and humerus.
proximal: close to body
distal: further from body
The carpus is not proximal to the brachium. The carpus is actually distal to the brachium. The carpal region is the wrist.
The radius bone in the forearm is distal to the cubitus (ulna) and proximal to the carpus (wrist bones).
The bones next to the carp joint are the radius and ulna in the forearm, and the metacarpal bones in the hand. These bones form the structure that supports and allows movement at the carpometacarpal joint.
proximal end is that end of bone which away from joint
wrist, also called carpus, complex joint between the five metacarpal bones of the hand and the radius and ulna bones of the forearm
The proximal end of the clavicle attaches to the manubrium of the sternum. This joint is called the acromiovlavicular joint.
radiocarpal joint.
Proximal and distal interphalangeal joints.
Distal interphalengeal joint & Proximal interphalengeal joint
The location of the proximal radioulnar joint is in the forearm, between the head of the radius and the radial notch of the ulna. It is a pivot joint that allows for rotational movement of the radius around the ulna, specifically enabling pronation and supination of the forearm.
The joint at the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia where the patella overlaps is called the knee joint. It is a hinge joint that allows for flexion and extension of the leg.
The scapulohumeral articulation, also known as the shoulder joint, is the ball-and-socket joint formed between the humerus (the upper arm bone) and the scapula (shoulder blade). This joint allows for a wide range of motion, enabling movements such as lifting, rotating, and swinging the arm. Its stability is provided by surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments, particularly the rotator cuff. The joint's design facilitates both mobility and functional use, making it vital for various upper limb activities.
