In western anatomical position what bone is superior to the ulna?
When the upper limb is placed in anatomical position, the humerus is the bone superior to ulna and radius. Radius is lateral to the ulna, with which it forms superior and inferior radio-ulna joints.
What is the position of the forearm in anatomical position?
In anatomical position the palms are facing up, making the ulna the medial bone of the forearm. The ulna is on the pinky side, and radius is on the thumb side.
What makes the radius bone lateral to the ulna?
In anatomical position, the radius bone is the lateral bone in the forearm and by gently pressing on it's lower end just above the wrist we can feel the pulse of the radial artery , while the ulna is the medial bone of the forearm.
In Western anatomical position what is the location of the distal ulna?
The ulna is located on the medial side of forearm, just proximal of the wrist.
Is the ulna medial or lateral compared to the radius?
Correct. It is also proximally medial to the radius in pronation, however at its distal end it is lateral.
What is the elbow to the fingers in anatomical position?
If you are talking about your forearm, from your elbow down, the bones go:The ulna and radiusThe carpalsThe phalanges
What is the lateral bone of the forearm?
In anatomical position the palms are facing up, making the ulna the medial bone of the forearm. The ulna is on the pinky side, and radius is on the thumb side.
What bones form the bumps on the medial and lateral sides of a wrist?

Humerous (upper arm) Ulna and Radius which turn over each other and are paralell when you are at anatomical position. I can't quite remember, but I'm pretty sure that Radius is the one that connects to the thumb.
What is the elbows to the fingers in anatomical position?
If you are talking about your forearm, from your elbow down, the bones go:The ulna and radiusThe carpalsThe phalanges
