Humerus - Capitulum and the lateral flange of trochlea Sarts from 2nd year, Medial part of trochlea starts from 10th year, Lateral epicondyle starts from 12th year and Medial epicondyle starts from the sixth year. Humerus The humerus (, plural: "humeri") is a long bone in the arm that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. It connects the scapula and the two bones of the lower arm, the radius and ulna, and consists of three sections. The humeral upper extremity consists of a rounded head, a narrow neck, and two short processes (tubercles, sometimes called tuberosities). The body is cylindrical
Bone marrow the umbilical cord. The earliest fossilised evidence of bone marrow was discovered in 2014 in "Eusthenopteron", a lobe-finned fish which lived during the Devonian period approximately 370 million years ago. Scientists from Uppsala University and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility used X-ray synchrotron microtomography to study the fossilised interior of the skeleton's humerus, finding organised tubular structures akin to modern vertebrate bone marrow. "Eusthenopteron" is closely related to the early tetrapods, which ultimately evolved into the land-dwelling mammals and lizards of the present day. Bone marrow Bone marrow is a semi-solid tissue which may be found within the spongy or
