What do metatarsophalangeal joints connect?

  1. Toe bones to ankle bones

  2. Toe bones to foot bones

  3. Foot bones to leg bones

  4. Ankle bones to leg bones

The correct answer is: Toe bones to foot bones

Metatarsophalangeal joints, commonly referred to as MTP joints, connect the metatarsal bones of the foot to the proximal phalanges of the toes. This connection allows for the flexion and extension of the toes and is essential for various movements such as walking, running, and jumping. Each metatarsal bone has an associated MTP joint at its distal end, articulating with the base of the corresponding toe, ultimately facilitating the intricate movements of the foot. Understanding this relationship is crucial for appreciating the biomechanics of the foot and the role these joints play in overall mobility.
