1. Appendicular Skeleton
Anatomy & Physiology

2. Pectoral Girdle

3. Scapula (2) shoulder blade glenoid cavity coracoid process
depression that articulates with humerus
coracoid process
point of attachment for muscles
acromion process
articulates with the clavicle

4. Clavicle (2)
collarbone
articulates with sternum and the scapula

5. Upper Limbs
Humerus (2)
Head articulates with glenoid cavity of scapula
Trochlea articulates with the ulna

6. Radius (2) Head articulates with the humerus Radial Tuberosity
projection where the tendon of the biceps brachii attaches

7. Ulna (2)
Trochlear Notch
articulates with trochlea of humerus

8. Hand Carpals (16) Metacarpals (10) Phalanges (28) wrist
8 bones each hand
Metacarpals (10)
palm
5 bones each hand
Phalanges (28)
fingers
14 bones each hand

9. Hip/Pelvic/Coxal Bone (2)
Each coxal bone is formed by the fusion of 3 bones
Acetabulum
Deep depression that articulates with the head of the femur

10. Male or Female Skeleton?
Female pelvis
Pubic arch is more rounded
Angle of the pubic arch is greater
Female pelvis lighter

11. Femur (2) heaviest bone in the body Head Greater and lesser trochanter
articulates with the acetabulum of coxal bone
Greater and lesser trochanter
Muscle attachment

12. Fibula (2) Lateral lower leg bone
Head of fibula articulates with the tibia

13. Tibia (2) Large medial lower leg bone Tibial tuberosity
roughened projection on the anterior surface where the patellar ligament attaches
Anterior crest

14. Patella (2) sesamoid kneecap bone
Posterior surface articulates with the femur

15. Tarsals (14)
Talus
most superior tarsal bone
Calcaneus
heel bone

16. Metatarsals (10)
form the distal portion of the foot where the arch is located

17. Phalanges (28) The hallux (big toe) has 2 phalanges
Other 4 toes have 3 phalanges
