The human hand consists of 27 bones: 8 carpals (wrist), 5 metacarpals (palm), and 14 phalanges (fingers). It is supported by muscles, tendons, and ligaments that allow intricate movements. Key structures include the median, ulnar, and radial nerves, which provide sensation and motor control. Blood supply is mainly through the radial and ulnar arteries. The hand has extrinsic muscles (originating from the forearm) and intrinsic muscles (located within the hand). Functional divisions include the thumb, which is essential for grip and precision, and the other four fingers, which assist in grasping, pinching, and dexterity. Fine motor skills make the hand unique.
