answer:
_______________________________________________________
There are eight carpal bones in the wrist divided equally in two rows. The row closer to the arm consists of 4 bones: scaphoid, lunate, triquetral and pisiform. The row closer to the hand consists of bones called trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and hamate. These bones provide a connection between the two bones of the forearm, ulna and radius, and the bones making up the hand.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are three different joints in the wrist all contributing to the movements possible here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Radiocarpal (wrist) joint between the lower end of the radius and the carpal bones on the thumb side of the wrist.
Midcarpal joint between the two rows of carpal bones.
Carpometacarpal joint between the carpal bones closer to the hand and the metacarpal bones of the hand.
