Anatomical Model of the Human Foot
The human foot is a complex anatomical structure with several important features, visible in models and confirmed by anatomy.
Key Features of the Human Foot:
Complex Bony Structure: The foot is composed of 26 bones, forming a longitudinal and transverse arch that acts as a shock absorber and support for the body’s weight.
Multiple Joints: It contains approximately 30 joints, allowing for great mobility and flexibility, particularly at the ankle, which connects the foot to the leg.
Muscles, Tendons, and Ligaments: More than 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments work together to provide movement, stability, and support for the structure of the foot, including the arch.
Three Distinct Parts: The foot is subdivided into three main parts: the hindfoot (comprising the calcaneus and talus), the midfoot (comprising the cuboid, navicular, and cuneiform bones), and the forefoot (comprising the metatarsals and phalanges of the toes).
Essential Functional Role: The foot is fundamental for balance, locomotion (walking, running), and shock absorption during physical activities.
Form Variations: The models illustrate different foot shapes, such as the normal foot, flat foot (with a low arch), and pes cavus (with an excessively high arch), each with specific biomechanical implications.
Sensory Receptors: Sensory receptors detect touch, temperature, and pain, sending signals to the brain to adjust posture and gait.

Anatomical Skin Model
Skin Characteristics
The skin, represented by the anatomical model, is the largest organ in the human body and has several essential characteristics and functions.
Structure
The skin is composed of three main layers, visible on the model:
The epidermis: The outermost layer, visible and palpable, which protects against toxins, bacteria, and fluid loss. It contains melanocytes that produce melanin, which filters UV rays.
The dermis: Located beneath the epidermis, it is a thick layer of elastic and fibrous tissue that gives the skin its strength and elasticity. It contains nerve endings, sweat and sebaceous glands, hair follicles, and blood vessels.
The hypodermis (or fatty layer): Located beneath the dermis, it insulates the body from heat and cold and serves as a protective layer for storing energy reserves. Functions
The skin performs many vital functions:
Protection: It protects the body from heat, cold, UV rays, injuries, and infections.
Thermal regulation: It controls body temperature through perspiration (produced by sweat glands) and vasodilation/vasoconstriction of blood vessels.
Sensory: It allows the perception of touch, pain, pressure, and temperature through nerve endings.
Vitamin D synthesis: Under the influence of sunlight, the skin participates in the production of vitamin D.
Excretion: It removes waste from the body through perspiration.
Aesthetic and psychosocial: Its color, texture, and quality play an important role in appearance and social interactions.
