9
Q
Difference b/w Anatomical and Surgical Neck
A
Anatomical Neck is directly distal to the Head. Surgical Neck is “Actual” neck and more fractures can be here since it is much thinner

25
How is Radius and Humerus differs from Ulna?
Radius and Humerus can do a Hinge motion of flexion, but radius can also able to Pivot. Ulna is locked in place so can only hinge but not pivot.
26
Ulna vs Radius size difference from proximal to Distal
Proximal end, radius is smaller but the Ulna is bigger. But on the distal end, radius is bigger but the ulna is smaller.
27
Styloid Process
Both Radius and Ulna has it. Looks like Pen stylus which is where the wrist joint will form between the carpals and the distal radius and ulna.

| Pronation- Radius and Ulna crossed
31
What type of Joint allows for Supination and Pronation Pivoting?
Proximal radio-ulnar Joint
32
Anular Ligament
Important Ligament to hold the radius in place. It wraps around the radial head so that it doesn't move and helps to hold it in place so that it can pivot without moving out of its socket
33
What type of joint is Elbow joint
Synovial hinge joint so it can do flexion and extension between the humerus and radius, and humerus and ulna articulating together.
34
Bones that make up the Carpals? In order
Some Lover tries position that they can't handle.
| Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, Pisiform, Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate, and Hamate.
35
How is thumb bone different than rest of the fingers?
