Questions and Answers

1.

Name the tan colored bone

Explanation
The tan colored bone that is being referred to in this question is the tibia. The tibia is one of the two bones located in the lower leg, with the other bone being the fibula. It is commonly known as the shinbone and is responsible for supporting the body's weight and providing stability during movement. The tibia is larger and stronger than the fibula and plays a crucial role in walking, running, and other weight-bearing activities.

Name the white colored bone

Explanation
The fibula is a bone in the human body that is located on the outer side of the lower leg, next to the tibia. It is often referred to as the "white colored bone" because it is relatively slender and has a smooth, white appearance. The fibula plays a role in providing support and stability to the leg, as well as serving as a site for muscle attachment.
