CLASSIFICATION OF BONES
There are 206 named bones of the human body that are classified into axial and appendicular skeletons
THE AXIAL SKELETON 80 bones segregated into three major regions (the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage). These are the bones that are most involved in protecting, supporting, and carrying other body parts.
The Skull: Sometimes also referred to as the cranium, but actually the cranium is the portion of the skull that protects the brain. The skull includes 8 cranial bones and 14 facial bones. Mandible – the lower jaw, largest and strongest facial bone
The Vertebral Column: consists of 26 irregular bones and extends from the skull to the pelvis where it transmits the weight of the body to the lower limbs. The bones of the vertebral column include 24 vertebrae, the sacrum, and the coccyx.
The Bony Thorax: composed of the 12 pairs of Ribs and the Sternum
The Appendicular Skeleton
126 bones of the upper and lower limbs and the shoulder and pelvic girdles. These bones assist in locomotion and help us manipulate the environment.
Bones of the appendicular skeleton include:
- Clavicle (collar bone: 2)
- Scapula (shoulder blade: 2)
- Humerus (upper arm bone: 2)
- Radius (forearm, thumb side: 2)
- Ulna (forearm, pinky side: 2)
- Carpals (wrist bones: 16)
- Metacarpals (hand bones: 10)
- Phalanges of hands (fingers: 28)
- Pelvic Bones (hip bones: 2)
- Femur (upper leg bone: 2)
- Patella (knee cap: 2)
- Fibula (lower leg bone: 2)
- Tibia (shin bone: 2)
- Tarsals (ankle bones: 14)
- Metatarsals (foot bones: 10)
- Phalanges of feet (toes: 28)
