The objective of the virtual lab on bones consisted of identifying the major bones of the human body. We had to place the major bones of the body in the correct anatomical position. The key terms included the axial skeleton which includes the skull and the bones that support it, such as, the vertebral column, ribs, and sternum. The appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the limbs and the structures that support them such as, the scapula and pelvic bones. It is also noted that where two bones meet is called a joint. There are many types of joints that allow for the body to move in different ways, notable ones: hinge, ball and socket, pivot and some in the skull. The materials used was a virtual skeleton, a cursor, a box, bones, and brains.
