The most distal feature of the numerous, referring to the numerous bones in the body, is typically the distal phalanx, which is the bone at the tip of the fingers and toes. In terms of the nervous system, the most distal features can refer to the peripheral nerve endings located in the skin and other tissues, responsible for sensing external stimuli. Each context may highlight a different aspect of "distal" in relation to anatomical structures.
What else can I help you with?
What portion of the small intestine is most distal from the pylorus of stomach?
The ileum is the most distal portion of the small intestine from the pylorus of the stomach. It connects to the large intestine at the ileocecal valve.
What is the most lateral distal part of the humerus?
Lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
Is the ankle distal to the phalanges?
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.
Is the stomach distal to the heart?
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.
Is the foot located proximal to the leg?
No, the foot is distal to the leg. The foot is the most distal part of the lower extremity, located furthest away from the body, while the leg is the proximal segment of the lower limb.
What is the name of the most distal joint of the lower extremity?
The distal interphalangeal joints are the most distal joints of the lower extremities.
What is the opposite of proximal?
The term most opposite of proximal is "distal."
What histological feature distinguishes proximal convoluted tubule from a distal convoluted tubule?
Proximal convoluted tubules have brush borders or microvilli on the inner edge of the tubule. Distal convoluted tubules do not have this structure.
What is the most superior of the tarsals and articulates with the distal end of the tibia?
The talus is the most superior of the tarsals. It forms a joint with the distal end of the tibia.
What is the most distal structure in relation to the kidneys?
The urethra
What portion of the small intestine is most distal from the pylorus of stomach?
The ileum is the most distal portion of the small intestine from the pylorus of the stomach. It connects to the large intestine at the ileocecal valve.
Are the phalanges distal to the metatarsals?
The phalanges, or toe bones, are distal to the metatarsals. They are farther away from the origin of the lower limb.
Which bone of the distal carpal row is the most medial?
The Capitate and the Trapezoid
What is the most lateral distal part of the humerus?
Lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
What happens to the body with CJD?
The most obvious pathologic feature of CJD is the formation of numerous fluid-filled spaces in the brain (vacuoles) resulting in a sponge-like appearance.
What is the opposite of distal?
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
Is the foot distal or proximal to the heart?
Distal
