Brief Explanations

The femur is the longest bone in the human body. Long bones are characterized by their length being greater than their width. Short bones are roughly cube - shaped (e.g., carpals in the wrist). Flat bones are thin and flat (e.g., skull bones). There is no such thing as an "appendicular" type of bone classification (appendicular refers to a region of the skeleton). Irregular bones have complex shapes (e.g., vertebrae).
