metacarpals
There are 5 knuckles in each hand and foot. They refer to the joints that are called metatarsal phalangeal joints that are between the metacarpal bones and the phalanges.
From the nail down the distal phalances, distal interphalangeal joint, the middle phalanges and then the proximal interphalangeal joints. The base of the finger is comprised of the proximal phalanges and the knuckles.
The metacarpal bones form the knuckles in the hand. These bones connect the fingers to the wrist and are responsible for movement and support in the hand.
In the hands, the bones in the fingers are referred to as the Phalanx bones' and are arranged, from the base to the tip, as follows: Proximal phalanges, intermediate phalanges, and distal phalanges. The bones in the palm of the hand look very similar on a skeleton, but should not be confused with the phalanges; these are referred to as 'carpals'.
the bones in the fingers are called metacarpals en the smaller finger bones are called phalanges.
