Description

The XC-130 Disarticulated Skeleton with Skull is a model used for educational and instructional purposes in the study of human anatomy. This type of skeleton is “disarticulated,” which means it is not fully assembled but consists of individual bones and parts. Here are some common specifications and features you might find in an XC-130 Disarticulated Skeleton with Skull:

1. Bone Types: This model typically includes a collection of individual human bones representing various types:

Skull bones, including the cranium and mandible (jawbone).
Bones of the vertebral column, including cervical (neck), thoracic (upper back), and lumbar (lower back) vertebrae.
Rib bones.
Pelvic bones (pelvis).
Bones of the arms (humerus, radius, ulna) and hands.
Bones of the legs (femur, tibia, fibula) and feet.
Bones of the shoulder (scapula) and hip (coxal) girdles.
Bones of the wrist (carpal bones) and ankle (tarsal bones).

2. Material: These skeletons are typically made of high-quality, durable materials such as PVC plastic to ensure longevity and resistance to wear and tear.

3. Anatomical Accuracy: The bones in the disarticulated skeleton should be anatomically accurate and correctly proportioned.

4. Labeling: In many cases, the bones are labeled with both common and scientific names to facilitate learning and identification.

5. Use: This type of skeleton is commonly used in medical and anatomical education, as well as for study and reference purposes.

6. Educational Tools: It serves as an educational tool for studying the individual bones of the human body and understanding their anatomical relationships.

7. Assembly Required: Since it’s disarticulated, assembly is required to put the skeleton together. This allows for a hands-on learning experience.

8. Storage: The bones are typically supplied in a storage box or container to keep them organized and protected when not in use.
