How are the tibia and fibula connected?
The Tibia and fibula are the only bones connecting knee and ankle. The tibia is the main weight bearing bone. The Fibula provides the top attachments for the muscles which raise the foot pivoting at the ankle. Also muscles for raising and straightening the toes. The Tibia also has the top attachments for the main muscles of the calf which enable one to walk tip-toe with the foot pivoted down at the ankle. Again 'Weight-bearing'. With a smashed Fibula you could still walk if willing. Probably not with a smashed Tibia. Tibia also is a blood cell factory inside the marrow.
