Question

Lateral condyle Medial epicondyle Lesser trochanter Neck Patellar surface Head Fovea capitis Intertrochanteric line

Answer 1

Below is the image labelled with its parts and the explanation is given below:

HEAD: The head of a bone usually refers to the proximal end of the bone.]It is round in shape and it articulates with acetabulum of the hip bone to form the hip joint. NECK: Femur is the bone of leg. The anatomical neck of the femur is very distinct, running from head to meet the shaft at an angle of about 125 degrees. INTERTROCHANTERIC LINE: It is a line located on the anterior side of the proximal end of femur. It stretches between the lesser trochanter and the greater trochanter forming base of the neck of femur following the direction of the shaft. PATELLAR SURFACE: The patella also known as knee cap, is a thick triangular bone which articulates with femur and covers and protects the anterior articular surface of the knee joint. MEDIAL EPICONDYLE: Is a bony projection/protrusion located on the medial side of the bone's distal end.

MEDIAL EPICONDYLE: Is a bony projection/protrusion located on the medial side of the bone's distal end.

LATERAL CONDYLE: is one of the two projections on the lower extremity of femur.Lateral condyle is more prominent and is broader both in its front to back and transverse diameters.

LESSER TROCHANTER: is a conical eminence which varies in size.It projects from lower and back part of the base of femur neck.

FOVEA CAPITIS : It is the pit on the head of femur where ligamentum teres inserts.This ligament holds the femur in the hip socket.

Hope the answer was clear and helpful.
