The blind pouch at the distal end of the colon is called the appendix. It is a small, tube-like structure attached to the cecum, which is the beginning of the large intestine. The function of the appendix is not well understood, but it is believed to play a role in immune function.
No, the lateral malleolus is the distal end of the fibula. The medial malleolus is the distal end of the tibia.
Fingers are distal to the arm in reference to the body.
The distal end of the bone is where it connects to the joint.
The distal end of the humerus articulates with the two bones of the forearm, the radius and the ulna. Noteworthy features on its distal and are the lateral and medial epicondyles (one of which is your elbow) as well as the trochlea and capitulum(both of these features forming the "pulley" shape found at the end of the humerus.
The distal end of the alimentary canal is the anus, where waste materials are expelled from the body.
The distal end of a neuron is the axon, an extension that arises from the soma (cell body), and at the distal end of an axon there are extensions called telodendria. At the distal ends of telodendria are knoblike structures called synaptic end bulbs (sometimes called synaptic knobs). Synaptic end bulbs have synaptic vesicles inside them that contain neurotransmitters. Synaptic vesicles are released by exocytosis into the synaptic cleft for diffusion. I can't tell from the way your question is worded if you're asking about axons, telodenria or synaptic end bulbs because all of these structures are at the distal end of a neuron. Determine what the function of the "extensions" is and use whichever part of my answer applies.
The distal humerus is the end of the humerus nearest the elbow. Transcondylar means across the condyles, or the knobs at the end of the humerus.
The talus is the most superior of the tarsals. It forms a joint with the distal end of the tibia.
The radial head is located at the top of the radius bone in your forearm near the elbow. The distal end of the radius is near the wrist. So therefore the radial head is not located near the distal end.
Each phalanx that articulates with the distal end of a metacarpal is a proximal phalanx. These phalanges are numbered one through five to distinguish them.
The anus is the end of the alimentary canal.
