The femur is classified as an appendicular bone. It is part of the appendicular skeleton, which includes the bones of the limbs and their associated girdles. The femur specifically functions as the thigh bone, connecting the hip joint to the knee joint. In contrast, the axial skeleton consists of the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage.
