The urethra
The most distal feature of the numerous, referring to the numerous bones in the body, is typically the distal phalanx, which is the bone at the tip of the fingers and toes. In terms of the nervous system, the most distal features can refer to the peripheral nerve endings located in the skin and other tissues, responsible for sensing external stimuli. Each context may highlight a different aspect of "distal" in relation to anatomical structures.
The most inferior (caudal) portion of the digestive system is the anus which is at the end of the rectum.
two kidneys, two ureters, bladder, urethra
The distal interphalangeal joints are the most distal joints of the lower extremities.
The term most opposite of proximal is "distal."
Blood flows slowest in the fingers because it is the most distal (furthest away from body) structure of the four. The other three are vital organs that need a constant supply of blood and are relatively closer to the heart compared to the fingers. By the time it gets to the fingers, it doesn't have as much driving force
The talus is the most superior of the tarsals. It forms a joint with the distal end of the tibia.
A fracture of the distal end of the fibula, known as a lateral malleolus fracture, typically occurs at the ankle joint. It is commonly caused by twisting or direct impact to the ankle. Treatment may involve immobilization with a cast or surgery, depending on the severity of the fracture.
A mouse has two kidneys, just like most mammals. These kidneys are responsible for filtering blood, removing waste, and regulating fluids in the body. Their size and structure are adapted to the mouse's small body, functioning efficiently to maintain homeostasis.
Pigeons, like most birds, have two kidneys. These kidneys are responsible for filtering waste from the bloodstream and regulating water and electrolyte balance, which is crucial for their metabolism and overall health. The structure and function of avian kidneys differ somewhat from those of mammals, reflecting their unique adaptations for flight and other physiological needs.
The ileum is the most distal portion of the small intestine from the pylorus of the stomach. It connects to the large intestine at the ileocecal valve.
The kidneys are part of the excretory system.
