Distal to the metatarsals are the phalanges. The great toe (hallux) has two phalanges where as all of the other toes have three each. The proximal phalanges attach the the metatarsals via the metatarsal phalangeal joints. Proximal to the metatarsals are the tarsals. The first, second, and third cuneiforms articulate with the first, second and third metatarsals. The fourth metatarsal articulates with the cuboid and the head of the fifth metatarsal is its own projection that can be felt on the lateral foot.
What else can I help you with?
Do all bones of the body articulate with at least one other?
NO! The Hyoid Bone is the only bone that does not articulate with any other bone.
What does the metatarsal do?
it is a bone that connects to the tarsal.
What bone is proximal to the fifth metatarsal?
The cuboid is proximal to the fifth metatarsal. It's the most lateral of the tarsals.
What bones don't touch sphenoid?
The sphenoid bone does not directly articulate with the frontal bone, zygomatic bone, or the mandible.
Temporal bones articulates with what?
The temporal bones articulate with the parietal bones superiorly, the sphenoid bone anteriorly, the occipital bone posteriorly, and the zygomatic bones laterally.
What is somethings about bones and joints?
bone articulate with each other at joints.
Is the fifth metatarsal axial or appendicular?
The fifth metatarsal is considered an appendicular bone because it is part of the appendicular skeleton, which includes the bones of the limbs and their girdles.
What results from the displacement of the metatarsal and big toe bones?
The displacement of these two foot bones causes a projection of bone on the inside portion of the forefoot.
What is a description of a bone?
One of the bones involved is called the first metatarsal bone. This bone is long and slender, with the big toe attached on one end and the other end connected to foot bones closer to the ankle.
What are cartilage and ligaments?
Joins are where two bones meet and articulate. Ligaments hold these joints together by attaching bone to bone. Cartilage is a smooth, soft tissue that separates the bones in the joint so that they do not directly rub on each other as they articulate.
Which cranial bone houses the condyles that articulate with first cervical vertebra?
The occipital condyles of the occipital bones articulate with the first cervical vertebra.
What bone in your foot begins with M?
The bone in your foot that begins with the letter "M" is the metatarsal bone. It is a long bone in the middle of the foot that connects the tarsal bones to the phalanges (toes).
