Skeletal System

No, the fingernail is distal to the elbow. Imagine a body standing with arms and legs spread out, like Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man. To determine if a part is distal or proximal to another part, look to see if it is closer or farther from the center of the body relative to the body part you are comparing it to. The fingernail is farther from the center of the body than the elbow, so it is distal to the elbow. In contrast the shoulder is closer to the center of the body, so it is proximal to the elbow. Using the same reasoning, the elbow is distal to the shoulder. When you're comfortable with those distinctions, you can start thinking about other terms like ventral, dorsal, caudal, saggital, coronal, etc.

It is the thigh bone. It is the longest bone in the body.

Fractures and/or breaks. As you can tell just from being in school, many people have broken or fractured a bone at least once.

Invertebrates do not have backbones.Examples of invertebrates are earthworms,insects,squids etc... Invertebrates are paraphyletic group.

Cranium , Maxillary bones , Mandible , Clavicle , Humerus , Pelvis , Femur , Carpals , Metacarpals , Phalanges , Patella , Tarsal , Metatarsal , Tibia , Fibula , Radius , Ulna , Coeeyx , Vertebrae , Ribs , Sternum and Scapula.

These are all the bones in the skeletal system.

Yup!! :) Hope I helped!

Depends of how you develop it but usually the skull is bigger but that does not mean that you can have a brain bigger than your skull Obama's brain is bigger than his skull

Femur, Tibia, Fibula, and about 50 bones in your feet. Spine too. without one of those, not happening.

because thats the way they were made. lol

This varies with the height of the individual.

Arm is made up of three long bones: our humerus in our upper arm and our ulna and radius in our lower arm. our upper and lower arms are connected at elbow by a hinge joint between humerus and ulna. our radius and ulna are linked at our elbow in a way that allows us to rotate our hand and forearm by more than 180 degrees. our ulna bone forms the point of our elbow.

Deltoids specifically---If you keep your palms parallel to the floor, medial deltoid. If you raise the front of your hand higher than the back (thumb facing up-very common) you transfer the tension to the anterior deltoid. trapezius also work into it. Biceps/triceps/forearms are used slightly as ancillary muscles-assumming you are using freeweights.. I am a former personal trainer. any ?'s bnielson_2@yahoo.com

Ligaments hold your bones together. Ligaments are thick fibrous bands of connective tissue that will hold bones, cartilage or other structures together.

The illium, ischium, and pubic are the 3 pelvic bones that articulate with the pelvic girdle

Two things that can help build strong bones: 1. Milk 2. dairy products Calcium basically.

The chest of a human body consists of the heart, lungs and ribs to protect both vital organs. Ribs 1-7 are commonly called the true ribs.

the ability to move the cartilage and squeeze his/her way out of there!!

its called the spongy bone

mons

canaliculus is a small channel or canal, as in bones, where they connect to lacunae. Lacuna is a small shallow space in the bones in which the osteocytes lie.

phalanges

The front and back of the lungs don't have a lot of fat and muscle the way the liver and stomach do. The ribcage protects them from blows and provides shape. It also holds some of the accessory muscles (the muscles used to help the diaphragm during heavy or laboured breathing).

There are seven bones in the neck that make up what is called the "Cervical vertebrae". They are referred to as C1 thru C7 which is short for "cervical 1 thru cervical 7". The neck also has one more bone called the Hyoid bone.
