Human body

This is a drawing my daughter did of the human body from memory:



I challenge you to find three things wrong with it.

    I did give this a try, but then blogger lost my comment, so epic fail blogger. :)

    1. Are the fingers and toes just flippy flaps of skin?

    2. How does the food go from the mouth to the stomach?

    3. This person seems to be missing a brain, and a brain stem, the head bone does not seem to connect to the neck bone, and there are no shoulder bones..

    How did I do? :)

    1) The tibia and fibula are stacked on top of each other with no real patella.

    2) She's missing either a radius or a patella.

    3) World's tiniest pelvis? Or perhaps just non-existent.

    4) Also this is a super brave lady- no rib cage!

    I do love that your daughter managed to get a thyroid in there. Or at least that's what I'm calling the butterfly shaped structure in the neck! 😉

      *2) She's missing a radius or an **ULNA.

      Also, just noticed- it looks like all her metatarsals are fused!

    I could pick out some things "wrong" but it's exceptional from an art AND an anatomy standpoint!

    How old is she? I don't care if she was creative in the number of bones she included -- this is really good for a kid of any age!

      Come on Fizz at the age of 8 the girl did really well. The intestines were off a bit for me and I read thru the above and caught some of those.

      Wow! If I were you I'd be very, very proud of her!

    1. Widened scapholunate interval
    2. Obliteration of the talonavicular joint
    3. Hyoid is cephalad to C3

    Other than that, I think it is completely anatomically perfect

      What about having two knees on each leg?

      I assumed she had duplication of the zone of polarizing activity.

    She's 8? Is that the freaking hyoid bone? She's good!

    Intestinal malrotation, talar colition, and pulmonary atresia (or is it bilateral pneumothoraces?) I am most worried about the lungs.

    First of all this is excellent!

    However, it does appear that the small bowel is connected directly to the bladder.
