The Femur
The femur, or thigh bone, is the longest, heaviest, and strongest bone in the entire human body. It is a
bone of the leg situated between the pelvis and knee in humans. The main function of the femur is to
transmit forces from the tibia to the hip joint.At the hip, the top end of the femur fits into a cavity
of the hip bone forming a ball-and-socket joint which permits the leg to perform circular
motions. At the knee, the femur connects with the tibia (shinbone) forming a hinge joint
protected by the patella.

The scapula

The scapula also known as shoulder blade or wing bone is the bone that connects the humerus with the
clavicle. The scapula form the posterior portion of the shoulder girdle,the part of appendicular skeleton
that connect the bones of the upper limbs to the axial skeleton. Scapula is a flat,triangular bone with a
broadly concave anterior surface that articulates medially with the clavicle.Laterally,the scapula
articulates with the hummerus via a ball and socket joint that provides extensive mobility to the shoulder
joint.

Biceps femoris

The biceps femoris is a muscle of the thigh located to the posterior, or back. As its name implies, it has
two parts, one of which (the long head) forms part of the hamstrings muscle group. It has the origin on
ischial tuberosity,sharing a common tendon with the semitendinosus and semimembranosus. It si insert on
the latera; surface of the head of the fibula. The main action are the flexion of the leg at knee joint,rotates
the tibial laterally (outward) and extend the hip.

Blood flow

The flow of blood through the heart follows a very deliberate path to ensure that oxygenated blood from
the lungs passes through major arteries and gets delivered to body tissues. This process occurs on an
average of 70 to 75 times a minute, pumping about 2,000 gallons of blood every day.Regular, rhythmic
contraction of the myocardium the thick, middle layer of cardiac muscle provides the pumping pressure
that allows blood to flow through veins and arteries. A blood cell without oxygen will travel through a
vein until it meets up with the superior vena cava, a large vein that takes blood from the head and arms to
the heart.The cell passes the right atrium, where it meets with blood from the lower part of the body from
the inferior vena cava.After passing through the tricuspid valve, blood is pumped into the right ventricle,
which pumps blood through the pulmonary valve and into the pulmonary trunk, a sort of T-intersection in
the chest.At this point, the cell either goes right or left. For the sake of argument, our cell chooses the left
pulmonary artery. It follows that route until it meets capillaries in the left lung where it receives
oxygen.At this point in the process, the cell will return to the heart via the left pulmonary vein and meet
up with other blood from the right lung in the left atrium of the heart.The blood then flows down through
the mitral valve and into the left ventricle. This is the part of the heart that pumps blood throughout the
entire body.After a quick burst through the aortic valve, the blood follows through the ascending
aorta and out through the circulatory system to your toes.After the organs and muscle tissue use the
oxygen, it’ll travel up the inferior vena cava and back to the heart, starting the process all over again.
