What else can I help you with?
Is the patella bone proximal to the ulna bone?
No, the patella is not proximal to the ulna. The patella is the kneecap, and is on the lower extremity. The ulna is the smaller of the forearm bones. Since the structures are on different limbs, you can't use the directionals proximal and distal. However, the patella is inferior and medial to the ulna.
What bones are distal to the radius and ulna and proximal to the metacarpals?
The radius and ulna are proximal to the carpal bones. The carpals are distal to the radius and ulna.
What is distal to the cubitus and proximal to the carpus?
The radius bone in the forearm is distal to the cubitus (ulna) and proximal to the carpus (wrist bones).
The humerous is proximal to the ulna?
The humerus (upper arm bone) is closer to the body than the ulna and the radius (lower arm bones) and so it is proximal. See link below: Table #3
Area of the proximal ulna that articulates with the tibia?
The ulna is a bone of the arm, and the tibia is a bone of the leg. They have no articulations.
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 scientific name for shorter forearm bone?
The wrist bone would be the Ulna. carpals..
Are the phalanges distal or proximal to the ulna?
Phalanges are distal to the the ulna bone. By the way the ulna bone does not participate in formation of the wrist joint.
Which appendicular bones have a styloid process?
Styloid process of the ulna & radius.The temporal bone, the radius bone, and the ulna bone.
Is the ulna a short bone or a flat bone?
The ulna articulates with:the humerus at its proximal end (end closest to the elbow)the radius at its radial notch (near the top part of the ulna) and at the ulnar notch (near the bottom part of the ulna)the wrist (separated by a fibrocartilaginous disc) at its distal end (end closest to the hand)
What is another name for the radius and ulna bone?
-Ulna bone: elbow bone -Radius bone: Forearm bone The radius is the bone of the forearm that extends from the lateral side of the elbow to the thumb side of the wrist. The radius is situated on the lateral side of the ulna, which exceeds it in length and size. It is a long bone, prism-shaped and slightly curved longitudinally.
