Define Tibial Crest[a]This is a sharp edge on the anterior shaft of the tibia.
[q]
Define Medial Malleolus[a]This is the medial “ankle bone. Part of the tibia.
[q]
Define Soleal Line[a]This is a rough oblique line on posterior, proximal shaft of the tibia.
[q]
Define PATELLA[a]This is a sesamoid bone that everyone has.
[q]
Define Meniscus[a]These are the semilunar cartilages.
[q]
Define Anterior and Posterior Cruciate Ligaments[a]These are intracapsular ligaments of the knee.
[q]
Define FIBULA[a] the lateral leg bone.
[q]
Define Lateral Malleolus[a] lateral “ankle bone”, part of the fibula.
[q]
Define Interosseous Membrane[a]This membrane lies between the tibia and fibula.
[q]
Define Distal Tibiofibular Syndesmosis[a]This is the amphiarthrotic joint where ligaments bind the distal ends of the tibia and fibula.

This group of 14 bones is in the foot?[a]phalanges
[q]
Define Talus[a]This is the most proximal tarsal.
[q]
Define Calcaneous[a]This is the most posterior and largest of the tarsals … heelbone.
[q]
Define Navicular[a]This bone is anterior to the talus on the medial aspect of the foot.
[q]
Define Cuneiforms[a]These are the three small bones anterior to the navicular numbered I, II, III (medial, intermediate, and lateral).
[q]
Define Cuboid[a]This is the tarsal lateral to cuneiforms and anterior to calcaneus.
