Notes for Bone Anatomy

Last Name, First_______________________________________________

Describe the special features (appearance, location, function) of the bone and markings. There’s no need to fill in the spaces that are darkened. I’d also recommend that you make a little sketch of the bone or marking in either the spaces that are empty or in the appearance column. You are responsible for identifying the following bones and bone markings. For yellow highlighted cells, give the number of those types of bones.
