The X-ray below shows the UNFUSED (open) epiphyses of the distal tibia and fibula. Using the aging standard on your Estimation of Age-at-Death lab exercise, estimate the age-at-death of the individual 1) if they were female and/or 2) if they were male. STANDARD: Age of Union for Epiphyses of Several Bones Age of Union Bone Epiphysis Males Females Humerus Proximal 14 – 21 14 – 20 Distal 11 – 18 9-15 Radius Proximal 14 – 19 13 – 16 Distal 16 – 20 16-19 Ulna Distal 18-20 16 – 19 Femur Proximal (femoral head) 15 – 18 13-17 Distal 14 – 19 14 – 17 Tibia Proximal 15 – 19 14 – 17 Distal 14 – 18 14 – 16 Fibula Proximal 14 – 20 14 – 18 Distal 14 – 18 13 – 16 This announcement is closed for comments
