To analyze:
The outcome of the joining of the radius and ulna bone while repairing from a fracture.
Introduction:
The movement of our appendages and the support of the weight in the upright position of the body are due to the presence of an appendicular skeleton in the body. The pectoral girdle and the upper limb are the two important parts of the upper body. The pectoral girdle has two pairs of bones that are attached to the upper limbs. The humerus bone articulates with the radius and the location where this articulation occurs is known as the capitulum. The forearm contains two bones the radius and the ulna bone. These bones are attached and are useful for the movement of the elbow.
