The document outlines the anatomy of a vertebra and the classification of bones into five categories: long, short, flat, sesamoid, and irregular. It provides examples of each type, including bones in the rib cage, shoulder girdle, upper limb, pelvic girdle, and lower limb. Notably, it explains the function of sesamoid bones in reducing stress on muscles and tendons.

15. Classification of bones
1. Long : longer than they are wide
2. Short : About the same in terms of their length and width
3. Flat: Flat shape, not rounded
4.Sesamoid : Small bone commonly found embedded within a muscle
or tendon near joint surfaces, existing as focal areas of ossification and
functioning as a pulley to alleviate stress on that particular muscle or
tendon.
5. Irregular:

17. Wrist: the carpal bones. Foot: tarsal bones. Distal
phalanges.
Short bones
