There are more than one - the tibial tuberosity is just below the knee, the medial malleolus is part of the ankle joint. There are several bony marking on the tibia. These can include the tibial tuberosity, the tibial crest, ans the medial malleolus.
The condyle is a bony landmark defined as a smooth rounded knob. It is often found at the ends of long bones, such as the femur or mandible, and functions in articulating with other bones to allow movement at joints.
The lesser trochanter is on the proximal medial portion of the femur. The femur is the scientific name for the thigh bone.
The bottom of the tibia. That particular part of the tibia is called the medial malleolus.
The bony landmarks of the clavicle include the acromial end (which articulates with the acromion of the scapula), the sternal end (which articulates with the sternum), and the conoid tubercle and trapezoid line (which serve as attachment sites for ligaments).
The crista galli is a bony ridge located on the ethmoid bone in the skull, specifically within the cranial cavity. It is an important landmark for structures that contribute to the sense of smell.
The xyphoid process is the inferior sternal bony landmark.
A fossa is a bony landmark defined as a pit or socket.
Any bony prominence is named by "process". E.g. "mastoid process of the skull."

When you palpate a bony landmark, it will feel harder than the soft tissue around it. For example, feel the point of your shoulder (acromion process of the scapula). Now move more medially (toward the center of your body) to the space between your shoulder and neck. If you feel the front of your body in this area, you will feel the clavicle (collarbone). If you feel the back of the area, you will be on your trapezius muscle, and perhaps supraspinatus and levator scapula. Notice how much softer the muscle areas feel than the bony landmarks. Generally, a bony landmark is a specific place on a particular bone. To use the example above - the acromion process of the scapula - it is the most lateral and superior aspect of the scapula, not just any old place on the scapula.
Sharks are not bony fish. They are cartilaginous fish.
A bony landmark that is defined as a smooth, rounded knob is known as a condyle. These bones allow for the movements of a joint within the skeletal system.
The landmark of the hipbone that can be felt on a hard chair is the ischial tuberosity. This bony prominence is located at the lower part of the pelvis and is commonly referred to as the "sit bones" because it bears weight when sitting. When sitting on a hard surface, these bony areas can become particularly noticeable.
