Answer:
The funny bone, commonly located in the body part known as ELBOW got its nickname because of the feeling that one feels when it gets hit.
Explanation:
The correct option, from the 4 options of knee, toe, elbow and shin, is option 3 , or Option C. "ELBOW"
This funny bone was named funny bone, because when the elbow comes in contact forcefully with an object, person or thing. There is a tingly sensation which is generated that travels along the lines of the ulnar nerve. The funny bone is not actually a bone, its a nerve,running down the inside part of our elbow. The ulnar nerve lets our brain know about feelings in our fourth and fifth fingers, which is why the tingly sensation travels.
Answer:
The ‘Funny Bone” got its nickname because of the funny feeling you get once it is triggered. Where is this bone located? Well lets see the answer to this question here below:-
Explanation:
First of all, let me correct you. This is the right spot in your body, which when tingled, offers you with a soothing or tingling effect. The pain can be described as a dull type.
The moment this particular spot is hit, a funny sensation runs through your body. You also need to keep in mind that even if it is named as Funny Bone, still it is not actually a bone in itself. It is a network of nerves that runs down from your elbow region and is termed as the Ulnar nerve.
The moment this nerve is tingled, it sends a sensation to your brain such that you get a funny and soothing feeling. The feeling can be felt in between your fifth and forth fingers. Another important thing that you need to know about this nerve is that it also regulates some of the movements of your hand.
I hope this answer helps you.
