-consists of two hip bones (coxal or pelvic bones)

- the sockets for the lower limbs are deep and allow for less movement

- acticulates with the vertebral column via the sacroiliac joint

-offers more strenght than mobility

- the largest of the three components of the hip

-the body of this helps form the acetabulum

-composed of a superior ala (wing) and an inferior body

[image]

-inferior and posterior portion of the hip bone

-comprised of a superior body and an inferior ramus

[image]

- deep fossa formed by the ilium, ischium and the pubis

-functions as the socket that accep the rounded head of the femur

-anterior and inferior part of the hip bone

- comprised of the superior ramus and the inferior ramus and a body

[image]

- longest, heaviest and strongest bone in the body

- has greater and lesser trochanters

-the head articulates with the acetabulum of the hip bone

-articulates with the patella

[image]

- largest sesamoid bone in the body

- forms the patellofemoral joint

[image]

-larger bone

- lateral and medial condyles at the proximal end

- articulates with the talus and fibula distally

[image]

- this is the smaller, laterally placed bone of the leg

- it is non-weight bearing

- the head forms the proximal tibiofibular joint

[image]

- seven bones

-includes the talus (ankle), the calacaneus (heel), navicular, three cuneiform bones (lateral, intermediate, and medial cuneiforms) and the cuboid   

[image]

-First, Second and Third cuneiform bones with the cuboid

- together they form the tarsometatarsal joints

[image]

- 14 phalanges (the big toe is the hallux)

 -the big toe has two phalanges called proximal and distal

- all the other toes have three: proximal, middle and distal
