Arten von Knochen

The video tutorial explains the five types of bones based on shape and structure: tubular, short, flat, irregular, and sesame bones. Tubular bones, also known as long bones, are formed through ossification and include the humerus and femur. Short bones are found in the hands and feet. Flat bones, like the ribs and skull, are formed by ossification and handle mechanical stress. Irregular bones include vertebrae and hip bones. Sesame bones, such as the patella, are found near joints and aid in muscle function.
