The category of bones that support the body's weight and work with muscles to provide movement is called the skeletal system. It includes bones such as the femur, tibia, and vertebrae, which support the body and articulate with muscles to allow for movement.
The articulation of two or more bones is called a joint. Joints are where bones come together and allow movement in the body.
A gap between bones is called a joint. Joints allow for movement and flexibility in the skeletal system.
Hinge bones are called hinge bones because they resemble hinges that are on a door. They move on one level like elbow or knee movement.
The bones in the palms of your hands are called metacarpal bones. There are five metacarpal bones, one for each finger, and they connect the wrist bones to the finger bones (phalanges). These bones play a crucial role in the structure and function of the hand, allowing for movement and dexterity.
Bones interact with each other through the joints, which allow for movement. At the joint, the ends of the bones are covered with smooth cartilage that helps reduce friction. Ligaments connect the bones and provide stability, while muscles and tendons around the joint help control movement.
Bones are connected to other bones by strong fibrous tissues called ligaments. Ligaments provide stability and support to the joints and help prevent excessive movement.
There are several bones: ribs (24), sternum, thoracic vertebrae that protect the heart and the lungs and several other organs.

A junction between two bones is called a joint. Joints allow for movement and flexibility within the skeletal system.
