Paper 1
The upper-arm bone, between the shoulder and elbow.
Revise: Location of major bonesSome names refer to individual bones, such as the humerus; others refer to groups of bones, such as the carpals.
Learn bones by location: the humerus appears at both the shoulder and elbow, while the tibia appears at both the knee and ankle.
Distinguish the humerus in the upper arm from the radius and ulna in the forearm, and the femur in the thigh from the tibia and fibula in the lower leg.
