Foot bones
Foot bones, computer artwork. The toes are made up of the phalanx bones (phalanges), two for the big toe (lower left) and three for the others. Metatarsal bones in th mid-foot link the phalanges to the tarsal bones. The tarsal bones include the calcaneus bone (heel, right) and the talus (left). These bones articulate with the lower leg bones, the fibula (upper right) and tibia (shin bone, gupper centre), to form the ankle

Ankle Bones Calcaneus Fibula Foot Heel Metatarsal Metatarsals Phalanges Phalanx Skeletal Talus Tarsal Tarsals Tibia Toes Computer Artwork
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of foot bones in a stunning computer artwork. The toes, composed of phalanx bones known as phalanges, are depicted with two for the big toe and three for the others. Connecting these phalanges to the tarsal bones are metatarsals located in the mid-foot region. Amongst the tarsal bones featured is the calcaneus bone, commonly referred to as the heel on the right side of this image, while on its left lies the talus bone. These remarkable skeletal structures play a crucial role in forming our ankles by articulating with lower leg bones such as fibula situated at upper right and tibia (shin bone) positioned at upper center. This harmonious connection between foot and leg creates stability and mobility essential for our daily activities. The photograph not only highlights anatomical details but also emphasizes their significance within biology and human body function. It serves as a reminder of how these healthy foot bones contribute to our overall well-being. Crafted with precision using computer artwork techniques, this illustration from Science Photo Library captures both scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal. Its portrayal offers an opportunity to delve into biological wonders while appreciating nature's design within us – reminding us that even seemingly ordinary parts like foot bones possess extraordinary complexity worthy of admiration.
