bone element

Skeletal element that is composed of bone tissue. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the bone element is

Skeletal element that is composed of bone tissue. The atlas records it as a bone at the organ scale in the human body.

Where the bone element is

It sits within the skeletal system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the bone element connects to

The atlas records 141 typed relationships for it, across 9 kinds of connection. part of skeletal system.

Supply and innervation

Arterial supply: nutrient foramen artery. Venous drainage: nutrient foramen vein.

Also called

Questions

Where is the bone element?

It sits within the skeletal system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What does the bone element connect to?

Part of: skeletal system.

Is the bone element the same in other species?

Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
