The femur is the longest, strongest, and heaviest bone in the body.
The lower limb attaches at the hip region, where the femur (thigh bone) articulates with the pelvic bone to form the hip joint.
Two joint muscles in the upper limb is the wrist and the elbow. Two joint muscles in the lower limb is the ankle and the knee.
Between the pubis and the ischium is the obturator foramen, a large opening in the hip bone that allows for the passage of blood vessels and nerves to the lower limb.
A prosthetic limb or "prosthetic"
The Os Coxae and the sacrum are part of the inferior limb but not a part of the FREE PART of the inferior limb.there are 30 bones in the free part of an inferior limb.1. Femur Bone (Long Bone)2. Patella (Sesamoid Bone)3. Tibia (Long Bone) (No Head4. Fibula (Long Bone)5. (7) Tarsal Bones (Short Bones)6. (5) Metatarsal Bones (Long Bones)7. (14) Phalangies (Long Bones)
A previous wiki answer by jpkeith:The Femur. It is, incidentally, also the largest bone in the entire body.Read more: What_is_the_largest_bone_in_the_lower_extremity
The lower limb attaches at the hip region, where the femur (thigh bone) articulates with the pelvic bone to form the hip joint.
The patellar ligament separates the kneecap from the lower limb. It connects the bottom of the kneecap to the tibia bone in the lower limb.
your arms are the upper limbs and your legs are the lower limbs :)
Femur is the longest, heaviest and strongest bone in the body.
That depends on wether your right or left handed, if your right handed then your right arm would be the third heaviest limb, as this would be your strongest arm (and therefore your heaviest arm), your legs would be the first two heavy limbs.
The most proximal bone of the lower limb in humans is the femur. It is the longest bone in the body and connects the hip joint to the knee joint. The femur plays a crucial role in supporting the weight of the body and facilitating movement.
The major joints of the lower limb include the hip joint (ball and socket joint connecting the thigh bone to the pelvis), the knee joint (hinge joint connecting the thigh bone to the shin bone), and the ankle joint (hinge joint connecting the shin bone to the foot).
The three parts of the hip bone ossify during the fetal period
The thigh could have many anatomical names. The thigh is lateral. The thigh is inferior to the head. The thigh is superficial to the gluteus minimus. It all depends on how you are trying to use it.
Medial aspect of the lower limb
Extra growth in one limb due to a fracture may lead to limb length discrepancy, where one limb is longer than the other. This can cause difficulties with movement, balance, and alignment, potentially leading to joint pain, back problems, and gait abnormalities. Treatment may involve monitoring growth, and in severe cases, surgical intervention to equalize limb lengths.
