1 Measuring the length of long bones can give an estimate of age for children, but this technique is useful only until bones have stopped growing. 2  The tibia completes growth at about age 16 or 17 in girls, and 18 or 19 in boys.he ends (epiphyses) and bony shafts (diaphyses) of long bones form separately in the womb. At birth, the ends of the long bones are mainly cartilage, with centers of bone beginning to form inside.
However, the term describes the shape of a bone, not its size which is relative. Long bones are found in the arms (humerus, ulna, radius) and legs (femur, tibia, fibula), as well as in the fingers (metacarpals, phalanges) and toes (metatarsals, phalanges).Long bones function as levers; they move when muscles contract.They are responsible for the body's height.he head of a bone usually refers to the proximal end of the bone. The shaft refers to the elongated sections of long bone, and the neck the segment between the head and shaft (or body). The end of the long bone opposite to the head is known as the base.
