Tulang Metakarpal refers to the five long bones in the middle part of the hand, located between the wrist and the fingers. Each metacarpal bone connects to a finger and plays a crucial role in hand movement and function. They are numbered from one to five, starting with the thumb. These bones are essential for gripping and manipulating objects, providing support and structure to the hand. The metacarpals articulate with the phalanges, the bones of the fingers, allowing for a wide range of motion and dexterity necessary for daily activities.
