bones are connected to other bones at joints.
The parietal bone and occipital bone are connected by the lambdoid suturethe occipital, parietal and temporal bonesWikipedia says: The lambdoid suture (or lambdoidal suture) is a dense, fibrous connective tissue joint on the posterior aspect of the skull that connects the parietal and temporal bones with the occipital bone.The Lambdiod suture connects the occipital bone to the parietal bones and the mastoid part of the temporal bone.The lambdoid suture joins the occipital bone to the parietal bones.occipital and parietal bonesLambdoid suture(s): separates the parietal bones and the occipital bone; it arches across the back of the skull ending bilateral where the parietal and occipital bones meets the temporal bone.occipital and parietal bone
particularly the longer bones of the arms and legs is a fracture, or a break in the bone. (A fractured bone and a broken bone are the same thing; one is not worse than the other.) Other common places for fractures are the bones of the wrist, ankle, and kneecap.
The styloid process of the Ulna (one of the bones of the forearm) is where the Ulna connects to the ligament of the wrist joint. The Triquetrum, Lunate and Pisiform carpal bones all lie distal to this. However the carpal bone most easily palpable is the Pisiform bone.
Ligaments, tendons, muscles, fascia, cartilage and skin all play a part in securing bones to bones and muscles to bones. However, most bones are connected to other bones by ligaments, and muscles are connected to bones by tendons.Ligament attaches bones to bones. Tendon attaches muscle to bones.
There are three types of ligaments.Articular ligaments: Fibrous tissue that connects bones to other bones. They are sometimes called "articular larua, "fibrous ligaments", or "true ligaments".Peritoneal ligaments: A fold of peritoneum or other membranes.Fetal remnant ligaments: The remnants of a tubular structure from the fetal period of life.The first term is the one most commonly intended when using the word "ligament". This article briefly handles peritoneal and fetal remnant ligaments before focusing on articular legments
The cranial vault is formed by the Frontal bone, pair of Temporal bones, pair of Parietal bones, Occipital bone, Sphenoid bone, and superior portion of the Ethmoid bone.
Most bones consist of two types of bone: the cortical bone is the hard smooth bone on the outside and the cancellous bone is on the inside. The cancellous bone is spongey and fibrous and fills the medulla cavity of the bone. So yes, they do have a filled cavity, but it's most evident in long bones like the femur or humerus.
You need all of your bones.
Bone marrow is the tissue that is in the center of large bones. Answer given by: Nora
Sesamoid bones are small circular bones that are embedded in a tendon and do not technically articulate with another bone. The biggest sesamoid bone in the body is the patella, also known as the knee cap. Actually its more of a trick question. the only bone that does not come in contact with any other bone in the body is the Hyoid bone. Even though the knee cap and other seasmoid bones don't technically articulate with any other bone they are still within close proximity, most often when this question is asked the answer being looked for is the Hyoid bone.
One of the most fragile bones is the hyoid bone in the neck.
