The forearm is from the wrist to the elbow.
The upper arm is from the shoulder to the elbow.
They meet at the elbow.
cts and carots yay!
The elbow joint
The humerus is the bone of the upper arm, not the lower arm/forearm.
elbow joint - hinge joint between the forearm and upper arm and the corresponding joint in the forelimb of a quadruped ginglymoid joint, ginglymus, hinge joint - a freely moving joint in which the bones are so articulated as to allow extensive movement in one plane
In the anatomical position, the upper arm is superior and/or proximal to the forearm.
no, "elbows" are a joint between your upper and lower arm
Part of the elbow is a ball and socket joint, but the elbow is made up of three different kinds of joint.The first joint is between the Humerus (bone of the upper arm) and the Ulna (the larger of the two forearm bones) which is a Hinge Joint. Hinge joints allow for movement along one plane. In the arm, this allows the movement used when a person touches their shoulder with the hand of the same arm.The second joint is between the Humerus and the Radius (the smaller of the two forearm bones) and this is a ball and socket joint.The third joint is between the Radius and the Ulna and this is a pivot joint. A pivot joint allows rotation of a joint, in the arm this allows the movement used when turning the palms upwards or downwards.

There are two joints between the forearm bone and wrist:the midcarpal jointthe radiocarpal jointthe radiocarpal joint is the first from the forearm.condyloid joint
A pivot joint is found at the elbow. The forearm is between the elbow and the wrist and so has two main joints. One at the elbow and one at the wrist. The other at the wrist is a gliding joint.

There are three muscles involved in flexing your elbow. They connect your upper arm to your forearm. When they contract, they become shorter and pull your forearm toward your upper arm.
Since your forearm is the lower part of your arm, the other part is usually called your upper arm.
The upper arm is the humerus, the lower arm is made up of the radius and ulna. The joint connecting the upper is called the humeroulnar joint.
The part of the upper limb between the wrist and elbow is called the forearm. It contains two long bones, the radius and ulna, and muscles responsible for moving the wrist, hand, and fingers. The forearm serves as a crucial link in the chain of movement between the hand and the upper arm.
