BCP 102 GD: Bones 4 (O-R)

Your DNA code gave you astonishing ligaments that hold your hips together with great strength!

Spongy bone and trabecular bone are the same thing.

Your hips are called your pelvis.

There is more than one ligament holding your femur to your pelvis (see below).

The angles of tendons and ligaments and their thicknesses are engineered by the DNA code of the body.

There is a ligament inside the hip ball joint holding the femur in place.

The knee cap bone has a tendon and muscle attaching to it to your toes. (Refer to the picture below)

The muscles for your fingers are mostly in your forearm. (Refer to the picture above.)

Everyone has a 6-pack of abdominal muscles. Whether or not you see them is dependent upon how built up they are and how much fat is under the skin. (Refer to the picture above. Think!)

There are 3 muscles holding your head on the upper part of your body.(Refer to the picture above.)

There are white ligaments wrapping the top of your ankle to help make your ankles more solid. (See picture below)

Muscles from near your shoulder move down and across your back and widen to attach to a long spot going down your back. (See picture below and one in article.)

There are at least 12 muscles pulling on your smile from each side of your mouth.

There are muscles that go around your eyes…one major one goes around the top of the eye and 15 major ones go around the bottom.

There are muscles from the bottom of your chin up to below your lips that you can tighten and make your chin a little hard. (Look at the picture and try it!)

Where are the leg muscles of a horse?

What are the white “strings” in the lower calf of the legs of the horse?

A little bit under the horse’s eye and ear there is a muscle that looks round on one end in this picture. This is the muscle that squeezes the jaw together.

The little muscles that are below the ear are to twitch the ear, like horses do when they try to get rid of flies.
