Two bones make up the bones of the leg, which are tibia and fibula.these two bones then articulates wit an ankle bone called talus(which is among the tarsal bones),tarsal bones means bones of foot.so the bone that links ankle to the lower leg is the talus bone
Mammals have a joint in the middle of the leg that is called a knee. In humans this joint allows the leg to bend backwards.
there are two 'knee bones'. One on each leg. They are both called patellas. (singular: patella).
An ankle is a joint formed by leg bones. by makala
This movement is called knee flexion. It is controlled by the hamstrings at the back of the thigh and the calf muscles. The knee joint flexes to allow the leg to bend and bring the lower leg towards the upper leg.
A junction between two bones is called a joint. Joints allow for movement and flexibility within the skeletal system.
The legs contain four bones each, if the feet and ankles are not included:The femur: thigh bone, also the longest and strongest in the body.The patella: kneecap.The fibula: the shorter of two bones in the lower leg, to the outside and behind the tibia.The tibia: the longer bone in the lower leg, connected to both ankle and knee (the fibula is only in the ankle, and connected to the back of this).
If your referring to the knee joint it is the tibiofemoral joint.
The ankle is the joint formed by the articulation of the lower leg bones with the talus. The ankle connects the foot with the leg.
When you bend your leg, the muscles in your thigh contract, pulling on the tendons that are attached to the bones in your lower leg. This causes your knee joint to flex, bringing your lower leg closer to your thigh. Additionally, the bones in the knee joint glide and rotate to allow for smooth and efficient movement.
