Question

which bone is \28\?

pisiform
radius
ulna
trapezium

Explanation:

Identify anatomical orientation

The diagram shows a posterior (dorsal) or anterior (palmar) view of the right hand skeleton. The thumb (pollex) is positioned on the upper side of the image, indicating the lateral side of the forearm and hand.

Locate the bones of the forearm

The forearm contains two long bones: the radius and the ulna. The radius is located on the lateral side (aligned with the thumb), while the ulna is located on the medial side (aligned with the pinky finger).

Identify the specific label

Label "28" points to the lateral bone of the forearm, which is on the thumb side. This bone is the radius. Label "29" points to the medial bone of the forearm, which is the ulna. Therefore, "28" is the radius.

Answer:

• Pisiform
• Radius (Correct answer)
• Ulna
• Trapezium
