no, the knee is distal to the thigh
The muscle that originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine of the hip and inserts onto the proximal end of the tibia is the sartorius muscle. This muscle is the longest muscle in the body and is responsible for flexing, abducting, and laterally rotating the hip joint, as well as flexing the knee joint.
The relationship is that they are both major bones of the body, and that they are formed from the sme type of bone tissuses. They are the only 2 like that in your whole body every other bone is made of different types of tissuses.
The greater trochanter is located on the femur bone, specifically at the proximal end of the femur where the thigh bone meets the hip bone. It serves as a point of attachment for several muscles that move the hip joint.
The olecranon is known as the proximal end of the forearm. The proximal end of the forearm refers to the olecranon.
I call it caltilage and muscle and maybe little pieces of bones that come off in time. by Usama Ahmed
the kneecap (patella) is distal from the hip and apoximent to the knee.
The stifle of a horse is anatomically equivalent to the knee of a human - it is a hinge joint consisting of the distal femur, proximal tibia, proximal fibula and the patella (kneecap).
The ankle is distal to the hip, meaning it is further away from the trunk of the body compared to the hip.
No. It is part of the leg. The thigh is proximal to the hip and superior to the knee.
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.
The patella is anterior to the joint between the femur and tibia. The patella is also known as the kneecap.
You have spelled it correctly, kneecap. A kneecap is the patella.
I believe that is the femur, which is the bone between your kneecap (patella) and your hip, that helps to form your upper leg.
The muscle that originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine of the hip and inserts onto the proximal end of the tibia is the sartorius muscle. This muscle is the longest muscle in the body and is responsible for flexing, abducting, and laterally rotating the hip joint, as well as flexing the knee joint.
The biggest bone in the body is your femur which is located above your knee and reaches from your knee to your hip.
Yes, the femur is proximal to the tarsals. The femur is the long bone in the thigh, which is closer to the trunk of the body, while the tarsals are the bones in the foot, which are distal to the femur.
The proximal limb muscles control functions and movements such as lifting, pushing, pulling, and stabilizing the body. These muscles are responsible for movements involving the shoulder, upper arm, and hip joints.
