Those bones are the tarsals, which make the ankle.
The distal ends of the tibia and fibula articulate with a single tarsal bone called the talus.

Does the calcaneous articulate with the distal end of the tibia?

The distal tibia articulates with the talus. The proximal tibia articulates with the femur.


What is the name of the joint at the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia that the patella overlaps?

The joint at the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia where the patella overlaps is called the knee joint. It is a hinge joint that allows for flexion and extension of the leg.


What are the long hand bones proximal to the phalanges?

The long hand bones proximal to the phalanges are the metacarpals. They articulate with the carpals of the wrist at one end and the phalanges of the fingers at the other end. There are five metacarpal bones in each hand.


What are the three bones that articulate with the femur?

The proximal end of the femur articulates with the acetabulum, which is the socket joint of the pelvis. The acetabulum is formed by the fusion of the three bones which make up the pelvis, the ischium, the ilium and the pubis. The distal end of the femur articulates with the patellae (knee caps) and the tibia.


What are the proximal end landmarks of the tibia?

The primary proximal end landmarks of the tibia are the lateral and medial condyles. These bumps at the top of the tibia are the site where the tibia articulates with the femur. Between the condyles is the intercondylar area, which is the place where the ligaments of the knee attach. The meniscus attaches in the intercondylar area as well.


The femur joins with the tibia at its distal end and fits into what at its proximal end?

The femur fits into the acetabulum at its proximal end.


Is the hock of a cat located at the proximal end of the tibia and the distal end of the femur?

Yes, the hock joint in a cat is located at the distal end of the femur and the proximal end of the tibia. The hock joint is often compared to the human ankle joint and is essential for their agility and movement.


What are the bones that articulates with the proximal end of the tibia and fibula?

It is the inner bone of the lower leg, from the knee to the ankle.


Which bone is found anterior to the distal end of the femur and proximal end of the tibia?

The patella is anterior to the joint between the femur and tibia. The patella is also known as the kneecap.


The distal end of the femur and the proximal ends of the tibia and fibula form which joint carpal stifle elbow hip?

The distal end of the femur and the proximal ends of the tibia and fibula form the knee joint, also known as the stifle joint in animals.


Where is the femoral condyle located in the body?

The femoral condyles are located at the end of the femur bone, which is the thigh bone. They are the round prominences that articulate with the tibia bone in the knee joint.


Distal and proximal ends of long bones?

The distal end of a long bone is the end farthest from the center of the body, while the proximal end is the end closest to the body's center. These ends are important for articulating with other bones and facilitating movement at joints.
