-14 TARSAL BONES-
(7 in each foot)
.
*aka “ankle bones”*
.
-in ‘tetrapods’, the tarsus is a cluster of ‘articulating bones’ in each foot situated between the lower end of ‘tibia’ / ‘fibula’ of the ‘lower leg’ + the ‘meta-tarsus’-
.
(in the foot the tarsus articulates with the bones of the metatarsus, which in turn articulate with the bones of the individual toes)
(the joint between the ‘tibia’ + ‘fibula’ above and the tarsus below is referred to as the ‘ankle joint’)
.
(in humans the largest bone in the tarsus is the ‘calceneum’)
(the weight-bearing bone within the heel of the ‘foot’)
