What are the names of the parts of the index finger?
From the nail down the distal phalances, distal interphalangeal joint, the middle phalanges and then the proximal interphalangeal joints. The base of the finger is comprised of the proximal phalanges and the knuckles.

What muscles are used in firing a pistol?
There would be 2 muscles involved in pulling the trigger: 1 - Flexor digitorum superficialis - flexes the proximal interphalangeal joint 2 - Flexor digitorum profundus - flexes the distal interphalangeal joint
What is the interphalangeal joints?
Joint between the phalanges (interphalangeal joint) is hinge joint.
The only muscle capable of flexing the distal interphalangeal joints?
The only muscle capable of flexing the distal interphalangeal joints is the flexor digitorum profundus. This muscle originates from the ulna and interosseous membrane in the forearm and inserts on the distal phalanges of the fingers. It is responsible for flexing the distal interphalangeal joints while the flexor digitorum superficialis flexes the proximal interphalangeal joints.
What is the name of the knuckle joint?
The interphalangeal joints in the fingers are synovial hinge joints. The thumb metacarpal is a saddle joint. The metacarpo-phalangeal joints are synovial ellipsoid joints.
What muscle flexes the distal interphalangeal joints?
The flexor digitorum profundus
Is osteoarthritis associated with hard nodules at the distal interphalangeal joints?
