What else can I help you with?
In western anatomical position what bone is superior to the ulna?
When the upper limb is placed in anatomical position, the humerus is the bone superior to ulna and radius. Radius is lateral to the ulna, with which it forms superior and inferior radio-ulna joints.
What is located on the distal aspect of the humerus?
The medial and lateral epicondyles are located on the distal apsect of the humerus. The distal humerus articulates with the radius and ulna.
What bones make up the humerus?
Supraglenoid tubercle, Scapular notch, Acromion process, Coracoid process, Superior border, Glenoid cavity, Lateral border, Subscapular fossa, Supraspinous Fossa, Superior Angle, Spine, Infraglenoid tubercle, Infraspinous fossa, Medial border, Scapular notch and Inferior angle.
Is the ulna proximal or distal to the radius in directional position?
The humerus is proximal to the radius. The humerus is the upper arm bone, and the radius is the main bone of the forearm.
Is the radius medial to the ulna?
No. The radius is distal to the humerus. The humerus is proximal to the radius. :D
What is the name of the lateral condyle on the humerus?
the distal end of the humerus has two smooth condyles. the lateral one, called the CAPITULUM is shaped somewhat like a wide tire and articulates with the radius. the medial one, called the TROCHLEA is pulleylike and articulates with the ulna.
What of the humerus articulates with radius?
The humerus is the upper arm (attached to the shoulder) and the radius is the bone in the thumb side of the forearm.
What three bones make up your arms?
The Humerus (upper arm), Radius (lower arm) and Ulna (Lower arm and elbow)
What is the bone of the upper extremity called?
Humerus: the bone of the arm, articulating with the scapula above and the radius and ulna below. Radius: The lateral and shorter of the two bones of the forearm Ulna: The medial and larger of of the two bones of the forearm, Synonim: cubitus
What joint is formed by the humerus?
The distal (meaning furthest from the body) aspect of the humerus that forms the elbow is called the trochlea, which literally means pulley.The distal & medial aspect of the humerus in the region of the elbow is called the medial epicondyle, but this is more of a site for tendon attachment for flexor muscles. The medial epicondyle is not a part of the actual elbow joint.
What bony landmark of the anterior humerus articulates with the ulna?
To you mean the joint itself? The elbow, AKA the proximal-distal axis of the humerus and ulna, respectively.Or just the distal epiphysis of the humerus (the rounded head of the bone which is farther fromthe arm's point of attachment to the torso)
Does a frog have a humerus?
Yes. And attached to the humerus is a radius and ulna.
