I believe the phalanx would be classified as a long bone because its length is approximately twice its width.
Yup
According to Wiki, the Phalanx is a long bone
A distal phalanx is the finger bone or toe bone farthest toward the tip of the digit. They are numbered one to five and left to right to distinguish them.
Yes because the bone is longer then it is wide.
Proximal means closer to the origin of the limb or finger. Medial means the inside aspect, closer to the midline. So the proximal medial aspect of the proximal phalanx is the "inside" edge of the first bone of the toe, closer to the beginning of the toe than to the end.
bone marrow is in the center of the bone shaft

long bone
Phalanx-- Any of the digital bones of the hand or foot.
It is technically a long bone, has head, base and diaphysis. It is small, but is technically a long bone.
The phalanx is a bone in the finger or toe. The plural form of the word is phalanges or phalanxes.
A phalanx is a toe bone. Thus a fractured proximal phalanx is a broken toe.
A distal phalanx is the finger bone or toe bone farthest toward the tip of the digit. They are numbered one to five and left to right to distinguish them.
Yes there is. The bones in the palm of your hand are known as the metacarpals. The next bone runs from the metacarpals to the first knuckle. This bone is known as th proximal phalanx and is joined to the metacarpals by the metacarpophalangeal joint. The bone between the first knuckle and the second knuckle is known as the middle phalanx, and the bone from the seconf knuckle to the tip of your finger is known as the distal phalanx.
The scientific name for finger bone is phalanx bones.
Medial in terms of phalanges means the middle bone of the second through fourth fingers. The bone at the end is the distal phalanx, and the one closest to the palm is the proximal phalanx.
The bones that make up your fingers (and toes) are called phalanges.
It is known as the thumb basal joint, also known as the carpometacarpal joint. It is a special saddle-shaped joint that is formed by the small wrist bone and the first of the three bones in the thumb.
