Which bones of the skeleton are in the leg?

Answer by  fiona (208)

At the very top of your leg are the hip bones, the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis. The femur is the thigh bone. The patella is the knee cap. The tibia is the large bone in your shin. The fibula is the smaller bone in your shin. There are 14 bones in the ankle as well.

In humans, the femur is the bone of the upper leg (between hip and knee). The tibia and fibula are the bones in the lower leg (between knee and ankle).
