Answer: Phalange

Each foot is a complex arrangement of 26 bones. There are fourteen phalanges, which are the toes, five metatarsals which are the long bones and seven tarsal bones which consist of the calcaneus, talus, cuboid, navicular, and the medial, middle, and lateral cuneiforms.
2. In "Dem Bones" the toe bone is connected to the foot bone. The foot is divided medically into how many parts?

Answer: Three

The foot, with regards to bones, is divided into three parts: the hindfoot, which consists of two tarsal bones, the talus, and the calcaneus, the midfoot consisting of five tarsal bones, and the forefoot consisting of the metatarsals and the phalanges.
3. In "Dem Bones" the foot bone is connected to the ankle bone. Three bones make up the ankle but what is the name of the bony projections on each side?

Answer: Malleolus

The bony projection on each side of your ankle is known as the malleolus.

The inside bony projection on your ankle is the medial malleolus.
The outside bony projection on your ankle is the lateral malleolus.
The back of your ankle is the posterior malleolus.

The purpose of the malleolus is related more to the tendon and ligaments that are attached to the bones and which allow the movement of the ankle.
4. In "Dem Bones" the ankle bone is connected to the leg bone. We are talking about the lower leg bones - the tibia and fibula. Which bone is larger?

Answer: Tibia

The tibia is the larger bone and is commonly known as the shin bone. The fibula is smaller and commonly known as the rear calf bone. These bones are connected to the foot at the ankle and form the malleolus.
5. In "Dem Bones" the leg bone is connected to the knee bone. What is the scientific name for the knee bone?

Answer: Patella

The patella, or kneecap, is the small bone at the front of the knee. The patella is a sesamoid bone, which is a bone which is embedded in a muscle or tendon. The patella is the largest sesamoid bone in the body. The sesamoid acts like a pulley that pulls the tendons over a smooth surface enabling the movement of the knee.
6. In "Dem Bones" the knee bone is connected to the thigh bone. The thigh bone is the femur.

Answer: True
