No it doesn't. It is the only bone in the body that doesn't attach to another bone.
The hyoid bone is a unique bone in the human body that does not directly articulate with any other bone. It is located in the neck and is attached to muscles and ligaments that help support the tongue and aid in swallowing and speaking.
No, the bony callus is primarily composed of spongy (cancellous) bone. It forms during the healing process of a bone fracture and helps stabilize and repair the bone. The bony callus eventually remodels into compact bone over time.
The frontal bones form the bony eye brow ridges.
The trochanter of the femur is a bony prominence located on the upper part of the thigh bone. There are two trochanters: the greater trochanter, which is located laterally and serves as a site for muscle attachment, and the lesser trochanter, which is located medially and is involved in hip flexion.
The formation of the bony callus in fracture repair is followed by remodeling. During remodeling, the bony callus is gradually replaced by mature bone tissue, restoring the shape and strength of the fractured bone. This process can take several weeks to months to complete.
The hyoid bone does not have any solid bony attachments; instead, it is suspended in the neck by muscles and ligaments. It is connected to the thyroid cartilage via the thyrohyoid membrane and has ligaments attaching it to the styloid processes of the temporal bones. This unique structure allows for flexibility and movement during swallowing and speech.
Most animals that have a bony skeleton have a hyoid bone; a possible exception would be snakes that need to expand their jaws to swallow prey.

There was no warrior named Bony but the name of the deputy of BloodClan was Bone.
that is a biology question. the bony matrix is the principle tissue of mature bones. trabecular bone is spongy bone ,which is less dense than compact bone.
The process styloideus, or styloid process, is a slender, pointed bony projection located on the temporal bone of the skull. It serves as an attachment point for muscles and ligaments associated with the tongue and the hyoid bone. Additionally, it plays a role in the structural integrity of the neck and the functioning of the throat. Its anatomical significance is important in various medical and surgical contexts.

No sharks are not 'bony'. The skeletal makeup of sharks is cartilage. Although cartilage is dense and can be bone-like it is significantly less dense than bone.
Bony necrosis is the death of bone tissue caused by poor blood supply. A synonym for bony necrosis is osteonecrosis.
