Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Trochanters are large, rough bony projections found on the femur where strong muscles attach. When weight lifters repeatedly exercise the muscles attached to the femur, the trochanters will likely increase in size and become more prominent. Meatus, fossa, and foramen are all bone markings that have different functions unrelated to muscle attachment.
