A distal clavi is a bone, also known as the clavicle or collarbone, located in the body that connects the shoulder blade to the sternum. It plays a crucial role in stabilizing and supporting the shoulder joint.
The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.
The heart is SUPERIOR to the stomach...ABOVE... Distal usually only applies to the appendages, or limbs. The hand is distal to the elbow. The foot is distal to the ankle. Distal might give you partial credit for some answers but when you are dealing with the torso you will want to use SUPERIOR or INFERIOR.
Distal refers to 'further from the attachment point'. For example, the ankle is distal to the knee.
Distal in anatomy means farther away from a point than another point. For example, your fingers are distal to your upper arm. You always have to compare two things.
The carpals are more distal than the humerus. The carpals are the bones in the wrist, whereas the humerus is the bone in the upper arm. Distal refers to a structure that is farther away from the point of attachment to the body.
Nails or rivets.
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
Distal
Yes. Distal means farther from the point of attachment or from the center of the body. So the knee is distal to the hip, and the food would be distal to the knee and so on.
Fingers are distal to the arm in reference to the body.
The distal tubule
Yes. Distal means farther from the point of attachment or from the center of the body. So the knee is distal to the hip, and the food would be distal to the knee and so on.
The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.
The humerus is proximal, not distal, to the thumb.
It is distal to it....
The distal end of the bone is where it connects to the joint.
The distal interphalangeal joints are the most distal joints of the lower extremities.
