	tonicx2000 -- good game, but perhaps you should put triquetrum as a valid answer for the bone you have down as 'triquetral'

	triquetrum... palate... middle cuneiform... all alternate names for those.

	great quiz however there are two mistakes 1) three fused bones in chest = sternum. The sternum is then broken down into three bones, the manubrium, the body of the sternum, and the xiphoid process. It is incorrect to refer to the whole as the manubrium. 2) made up of the ischium, ilium and pubis = pelvis or pelvic girdle. This is not the hip. The hip is a joint consisting of the pelvis and femur.
