We want to identify the primary weight bearing bone in the wrist joint.
00:06
Well, the forearm consists of two bones, the ulna and the radius.
00:09
When considering the wrist joint specifically, the primary weight bearing bone is the one that directly articulates with the carpal bones to support the weight transmitted through the hand.
00:16
So that is c radius.
00:20
To determine which ligament helps hold the radius bone in place in the wrist joint, the ligaments in the wrist help stabilize the joint and keep the bones in proper alignment.
00:28
The specific ligament that encircles the head of the radius and holds it in place allowing for the rotation around the ulna is the annular ligament and that is option b.
00:39
Identify the name of the joint between the radius and the carpals of the wrist.
00:42
The joint formed between the distal end of the radius and the proximal row of carpal bones of the wrist is known as the radiocarpal joint.
00:50
Option a.
00:51
Classified the type of bone, the scaphoid bone is in the wrist.
00:55
It's one of the eight small bones that make up the carpal bones of the wrist...
