What are the long hand bones proximal to the phalanges?
The metacarpals are the long hand bones proximal to the phalanges. The carpals are proximal to the metacarpals.
Where are your metatarsal bone?
The metatarsus consists of the five long bones of the foot, which are numbered from the medial side (ossa metatarsalia I.-V.); each presents for examination a body and two extremities. These are analogous to the metacarpals of the hand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metatarsal_bone The middle part of the foot that forms the instep, and includes the five bones between the toes and ankle.
Where are long bones found?
Long bones include the femurs, tibias, and fibulas of the legs, the humeri, radii, and ulnas of the arms, metacarpals and metatarsals of the hands and feet, and the phalanges of the fingers and toes.
Is the metacarpal bone a short bone a flat bone or an irregular bone?
Tarsals and carpals are short bones. Metacarpals, metatarsals and phalanges are long bones.
Bones that are distal to the tibia and fibula and proximal to the metatarsals?
The bone structures between the toes and ankle are call tarsal and metatarsal bones. These make up the main structure of the foot beyond the ankle. The toes are often refered to as phalanges. (fingers also share this name) As an additional point of information, the bones in the hand are call carpals and metacarpals finishing up with the proximal phalanges, intermidiate phalanges and distal phalanges.
What are the long hand bones proximal to the phalanges?
The metacarpals are the long hand bones proximal to the phalanges. The carpals are proximal to the metacarpals.

What type of bone is the fingers?
The bones that make up your fingers (and toes) are called phalanges.
Where are long bones found?
Long bones include the femurs, tibias, and fibulas of the legs, the humeri, radii, and ulnas of the arms, metacarpals and metatarsals of the hands and feet, and the phalanges of the fingers and toes.
What bones are the long bone of the palm?
metacarpals
How many metacarpals are on each hand?
The answer to your question is none. This is because metacarpals are only found in the hand. Metatarsals are the bones in the feet. They are a group of five long bones found between the tarsal bones of the back and mid foot area.
Is the metacarpal bone a short bone a flat bone or an irregular bone?
Tarsals and carpals are short bones. Metacarpals, metatarsals and phalanges are long bones.
What bones are in the skeletal system?
There is a long list of bones. In all, there are 206. The bones are the:skull, mandible, vertebrae(neck), clavicle, scapula, rib cage, sternum, humerus, ulna, radius, vertebrae(spine), carpals, phalanges(fingers),metacarpals, pelvic girdle, coccyx, femur, patella, fibula, tibia, metatarsals, phalanges(toes), joints, ligaments, and cartilage. Ligaments and cartilage are not bones, but they hold the bones together.
How many long bones in the foot?
The ankle bones (tarsals) would be considered to be short bones, so the long bones of the foot would be the metatarsals and the phalanges. There are five metatarsals and two phalanges for the big toe but three for all the others. This would make a total of 19 bones (5+2+3x4). In some people, the last two phalanges of the little toe may be fused.
What are phlangies?
The phalanges are the long bones in the fingers and toes. In humans, there are 14 phalanges in each hand and each foot. They are also known as phalanx bones.
Bones that are distal to the tibia and fibula and proximal to the metatarsals?
The bone structures between the toes and ankle are call tarsal and metatarsal bones. These make up the main structure of the foot beyond the ankle. The toes are often refered to as phalanges. (fingers also share this name) As an additional point of information, the bones in the hand are call carpals and metacarpals finishing up with the proximal phalanges, intermidiate phalanges and distal phalanges.
Which bone articulate with metatarsal bones?
Distal to the metatarsals are the phalanges. The great toe (hallux) has two phalanges where as all of the other toes have three each. The proximal phalanges attach the the metatarsals via the metatarsal phalangeal joints. Proximal to the metatarsals are the tarsals. The first, second, and third cuneiforms articulate with the first, second and third metatarsals. The fourth metatarsal articulates with the cuboid and the head of the fifth metatarsal is its own projection that can be felt on the lateral foot.
