PLATE LXXXI.
BONES OF THE ARM AND OF THE LEG.

This Plate shews the variations produced by their
movements: in which it appears that the arm when
straight, measures less in length from A. to B. fig. 1.
than it does when partly bent, by the distance C. D.
fig. 2. and that the distance is greatly encreased by
the further bending C. D. in fig. 3.

Fig. 4. and 5. shew, that the motion of the foot
affects the juncture of the foot, enlarging it when
acute as D. E. F. and lessening it when obtuse, as
A. B. C. The effect of motion on the knee appears
to be similar to that of the elbow, as G. H.
