What is the bone proximal to your radius and ulna?

Humerus


What bones are distal to the radius and ulna and proximal to the metacarpals?

The radius and ulna are proximal to the carpal bones. The carpals are distal to the radius and ulna.


Is elbow proximal the wrist?

No. The wrist is DISTAL to the elbow. The radius and the ulna ( your forearm ) are what separates the elbow joint from the carpals, and the metacarpals, which is your wrist.


Is the radius medial to the ulna?

No. The radius is distal to the humerus. The humerus is proximal to the radius. :D


Which bones articulates with the ulna?

At the distal end: the carpels in the hand at the head of the ulna and the radius at the ulna notch of radius. At the proximal end: the trochlea of the humerus at the trochlear notch and coronoid process of the ulna and the head of the radius at the radial notch of the ulna.


The humerous is proximal to the ulna?

The humerus (upper arm bone) is closer to the body than the ulna and the radius (lower arm bones) and so it is proximal. See link below: Table #3


What is distal to the left elbow and proximal to the wrist?

The left radius and ulna, the bones of the forearm, are distal to the left elbow and proximal to the left wrist. The radius is the larger of the two bones.


Type of fibrous joint is found between radius and ulna?

interosseous membrane of the forearm


Where ulna and radius move around each other?

In the elbow, there are three portions of the joint, connecting the three bones of the arm (ulna, radius and humerus). The ulna and radius are connnected in the proximal radioulnar joint. In any position of flexion or extension, the radius can be rotated in it.


Is the ulna proximal or distal to the radius in directional position?

The humerus is proximal to the radius. The humerus is the upper arm bone, and the radius is the main bone of the forearm.


What is the collective name for the bones of the elbow?

Is the elbow proximal to the wrist?

No, it the wrist would be distal to the elbow. The best way to remember this is by using the words approximate (close) and distant (far). If something is proximal, it is closer to the trunk. If it is distal, it is further away from the trunk. That's wrong, i just got that one wrong on the test i was taking. it is proximal to the elbow!!
