There are three short, tiny bones in our ears called ossicles. They are the hammer (Malleus), anvil (Incus) and stirrup(Stapes). They transmit sounds to the cochlea (also found in the ear).

How does the skeletal system relate to the muscular system?
The skeletal and muscular systems are closely related. The muscular system is connected to the skeletal system through ligaments. The muscles are what makes the bones move.
What are the functions of a short bone?
Short bones in the human body are cubelike -- the length, width, and height measurements are all about the same. Short bones include the carpal bones (hands, wrist) and tarsal bones (feet, ankles).
Is the metacarpal bone a short bone a flat bone or an irregular bone?
Tarsals and carpals are short bones. Metacarpals, metatarsals and phalanges are long bones.
What are different types of bones in the skeletal system?
There are 5 types of bones in the human body. There are long bones, short bones, flat bones, irregular bones, and sesmoid bones.
Is composed of small short bones connected to one another?

How do the skeletal and muscular systems work to move the body?
The skeletal system works as the support system, holding you in shape and upright. The muscles are attached to the skeletal system using contractions and relaxation of the muscles to pull and move the bones.
How many kinds of human bones are there?
There are 5 kinds of bones in the human body. They are: long, short, flat, irregular and sesmoid. 206 bones in adults. 300-350 in infants.
What are the components of the muscular systems?
The musculo-skeletal system is composed of muscles, bones, cartilages, ligaments and tendons. Combined, these components fulfill many functions, including movement, posture maintenance, support and protection of internal organs. At the Bioengineering Institute, the musculo-skeletal research group is aiming to develop an anatomically and biophysically detailed model of the human musculo-skeletal system. In addition, they wish to develop instrumentation for geometric and structural measurements, and for model validation. In the short term, they are focusing on developing a model for accurate analysis of stress in all components of the human knee, which can then be used for diagnostic evaluation and surgical treatment purposes. In the long term, as part of the Physiome Project, their aim is to develop a web-accessible database of the geometry, structure and material properties of the entire human musculo-skeletal system.
