- Which bones articulate at the knee joint and which movements are possible? - The femoral condyles (femur) articulate with the tibia -->fibula not part of the knee joint - hinge-like, synovial joint --> Flexion and Extension
- Parts of the Tibia (larger bone) - tibial plateau - articulation with femoral condyles - lateral condyle - medial codyle - tibial tuberosity - muscle attachment - Body/shaft - medial malleous
- Parts of the fibula (smaller bone) - Head - Neck - shaft/body - lateral malleous
- Where do tibia and fibula articulate? - at the superior and inferior tibio-fibular joint --> no pronation/supination
- Which bones articulate at the ankle joint? - tibia and fibula articulate at the inferior tibio-fibular joint with the talus --> synovial hinge joing (flexion/extension)
- Tarsal bones (7) 1. Proximal row: - talus - culcaneus - navicular 2. Distal row: - cuboid - Medial/Intermediate/Laterl cuneiform
- Metatarsal bones - numbered 1-5 (medially-laterally) - head + shaft + base
- Phalanges - Hallux (medially) - base + body + head
